{Sld}Where to put custom php.ini file to increase upload size for Media Manager?
« on: August 09, 2008, 07:50:57 PM »
Hi!

I am working on a site with a host that does not allow PHP commands to be put in the .htaccess file.

Right now the max_upload_size is set at 2M, and I need this to be 10M or more. I created a custom php.ini file with the values and uploaded it to the /public_html/administrator/components/com_media folder. It didn not affect the values, even after clearing cache etc and re-loading the Media Upload page.

Does anyone here know what folder to put a php.ini file in to affect change to the media uploads function.

FTP is not an option for this client, so that is why I must make the Media Upload work within Joomla.

Thanks!

You know i am beginning to think that posting on the RT forum sparks some magic seed in my. Every time I am exasperated and post a question, I seem to find the solution in a few minutes to a few hours! LOL It's miraculous!

Anyway, it turns out i needed to upload the php.ini file to the root folder and also to /public_html/administrator

Hope this helps someone!
