Hello

I created a directory that I will be using to upload MP3s.  I made the maximum file size at 10240 (10MB).  I tried uploading a 3MB MP3 via file manager and I get “upload_file_exceeds_limit”. 

Any solutions?

Thank you in advance,
Marcos

You probably need to increase the max upload file size in your php configuration. You can do that with the ini_set() function or directly in your .htaccess file if your host allows that.

Try adding this to your .htaccess file:

php_value upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value max_execution_time 120
php_value post_max_size 10M

Thanks for the assist, Rick. Does that help, Marcos?

Can’t find the .htaccess file, what folder is it in?

If you don’t have an .htaccess file already in your document root, then create one and add the lines above.

What Rick says 😊 Since this doesn’t seem to be an EE issue as such I am going to move this to the CSC. Thanks 😊

Thanks for the assist, Rick.

Marcos - you might want to query in Google for an example on making an .htaccess file.

OK, I have to some research.  Thanks for your quick replies and advice.
