Probably the most easiest way to increase the upload limit not just on activeCollab but almost to all PHP applications like WordPress is by configuring the .htaccess file. Editing you PHP ini file can be hard if you do not have access to server or if your are on a shared hosting environment.
Copy and paste the following code below to increase PHP upload limit, i have set the limit to 20MB but you can change it to your liking by editing it.
php_value upload_max_filesize 20M
php_value post_max_size 20M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
UPDATE:
I found some people experienced difficulties in adding the lines above especially on WordPess installs. So here is an updated script for your .htaccess file with PHP versions included. Adding the lines above will generate an Internal Server Error (Error 500) on systems although i did not experience this on my installs.
# PHP 4, Apache 1.
<ifmodule mod_php4.c>
php_value memory_limit 64M
php_value post_max_size 20M
php_value upload_max_filesize 20M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
</ifmodule>
# PHP 4, Apache 2.
<ifmodule sapi_apache2.c>
php_value memory_limit 64M
php_value post_max_size 20M
php_value upload_max_filesize 20M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
</ifmodule>
# PHP 5, Apache 1 and 2.
<ifmodule mod_php5.c>
php_value memory_limit 64M
php_value post_max_size 20M
php_value upload_max_filesize 20M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
</ifmodule>
Thanks for this post, for your typical shared hosting this method is a god-send, and one I wasn’t aware of.
I can’t believe I found out about the NO-CD Star Craft patch on this site before I did from any official source like Blizzard!
thanks for the article it helps me a lot build my custom essay
Thanks for this script
when i was try on wp forums i got 500 server error
i hope it will works thanks
Nice post, but it will not work with suPHP, you will get error 500 … But it will sure works fine on modPHP or CGI…
Thanks for that, worked like a charm!
I am currently in the middle of redoing my wedding photography blog, mainly because I had difficulty getting permalinks to work with Apache and Ubuntu.
So I built a new Virtual server (SliceHost) with Apache on CentOS 5.5 and ran into this issue while importing my old blog.
All is good now!
The audio settings page then says you have an upload limit of 15MB even though you set it to 30, this is no doubt due to MT own limits that cannot be passed. That’s fine though, 15MB would be more than enough.
