Upload File Limit

What is the file size limit for uploads via the flash uploader and the quick one file upload?

As a test I have the max file upload size of my PHP ini set to 100M but the flash uploader says "Too Large" and will not upload files that are around 50M.

The one file quick upload hits an error after a bit which I'm assuming is the server timeout or some such thing.

So basically I need to know where the config setting is that can increase the flash uploader.

Thanks!

for each file the size limit is set to 20000000 bytes, you can overwrite this in /concrete/tools/al_upload.php by adding a max_filesize flashvar:

for example in the flashvars block which begin on line 23, you can add:
...
"max_filesize": "<your_new_file_size_in_bytes>",
...

This thread is over 4 years old and obsolete. This is the 2nd thread I've looked at now that died several years ago without an answer. Someone needs to review all the forum threads and remove those that are way out of date and not answered.

I am searching for an answer to the same problem for a site that I am using concrete5.5 on and the file suggested here, /concrete/tools/al_upload.php doesn't exist.

If anyone knows where to raise the upload limit for File Manager, please help.

Thanks - - -

This doesn't really apply anymore because so much has changed.

To increase your size limit just add the following to your PHP ini:

upload_max_filesize = 20M;
post_max_size = 20M;
max_execution_time = 60;


Just replace the 20M with whatever size you'd like.

SWFUpload has a 'file_size_limit' setting(/concrete/js/swfupload/swfupload.js), but as i checked it set to 0 (means no limit), so the limit comes from php setting.
