unable to upload a jpg
Permalink
In dashboard I try to upload a 4mb jpg .. and this is the error message I get. This is a new website with nothing added. I just made a new page and tried to add this picture to it.

Thank you for the reply .. it was a php.ini config problem.
This looks like a php.ini configuration issue.
If you are in a local development site, look for php.ini and relevant settings within it. It will typically be either in your web root or where php is installed. There are plenty of online guides to php.ini that will tell you what to look for.
If you are online with a shared hosting plan, these settings are more likely a limitation of the hosting plan. You may be able to change them in your .htaccess file, but it is more likely that the host will have set these in stone.
You could also try running phpinfo(). It will tell you all sorts of things about your server settings. The attached file should be renamed to end .php and copied to your web root directory. You can then run it byhttp://your_domain.com/phpinfo.php....
But don't leave this code on a publicly accessible site. It could lead to security issues.

Thank you for the reply. It was a php.ini config problem. I deleted the file and reinstalled a new one than edited the upload file size and all works fine.
It should look something like
flv, jpg, gif, jpeg, ico, docx, xla, png, psd, swf, doc, txt, xls, xlsx, csv, pdf, tiff, rtf, m4a, mov, wmv, mpeg, mpg, wav, 3gp, avi, m4v, mp4, mp3, qt, ppt, pptx, kml, xml
