Hi,<br /><br />I'm having a real problem with an HTML form when uploading large files, as of today. Yesterday, uploading a 5mb file with the form was not a problem (thanks to setting a couple php variables in .htaccess), but today the script always times out at 30 seconds.<br /><br />So after talking to the help desk, who says it's on my end, I set up the most simple script possible at <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.midsouthtalent.com/test.php">www.midsouthtalent.com/test.php</a><!-- w --> but it still times out (this one at 60 seconds).<br /><br /><!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec--><form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="/admin/test.php"><br /><input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="14000000"><br /><p>Video 1:<br><br /><input type="file" name="video1" class="form_textbox"><br /><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Update Artist" class="form_button"></p></form><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />Any ideas as to why the thing times out? Feel free to try to upload a file around 8mb or larger--nothing is set to happen on execution of this text script.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Dave<!--content-->
Have you increased the variable in the htaccess file to allow larger files?<!--content-->

Yes, that was it. But I think if you try this it will work<br /><br />php_value upload_max_filesize 15M<br />php_value max_execution_time 800<br /><br />Note that the "M" is a capital letter and not lower case.<!--content-->

"The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading" right at 60 seconds. In this case it's not really a php script--it doesn't have any php to it.

Sorry, I don't know what else to try other than tell you to use an FTP client to upload. <br /><br />Maybe someone else will have an answer.<!--content-->
Thanks anyway Bruce. I'll see if any answers come and then get the support desk back.<!--content-->

Is this PHP?<br /><br />//disable script timeout<br />set_time_limit(0);<!--content-->
