Uploading Large Files to BucketList

If attempts to upload a large file using BucketList appear to fail silently (the upload indicator never changes), you probably need to adjust your server settings to accommodate larger uploads.

This page on PHP.net provides a good overview of the available settings. Those most likely to affect BucketList are:

  • upload_max_filesize
  • post_max_size
  • max_input_time
  • memory_limit

upload_max_filesize

Specifies the maximum size of an uploaded file, measured in bytes.

post_max_size

Specifies the maximum allowable size of post data, measured in bytes. To enable uploading of large files, this value must be larger than upload_max_filesize.

max_input_time

Specifies the maximum time, measured in seconds, that a script is allowed to parse input data (such as file uploads).

memory_limit

Specifies the amount of memory a script may allocate, measured in bytes. This should be larger than post_max_size.
