php_value post_max_size not affecting anything

php_value post_max_size not working

[kvnband]

Well, I am trying to increase the upload limits for my photo album directory. I have users trying to upload 20MB videos, and they keep getting an error. The content of my .htaccess is

php_value max_execution_time 600
php_value upload_max_filesize 40M
php_value post_max_size 40M

max execution time is high because when doing an upgrade, the server had to move roughly 40,000 files around. I didn't want the script to time out on me. Anyway, the max execution time and upload max filesize are both working, because I look at the phpinfo placed in that directory and they are reflecting the correct values. However, the post_max_size still says 8M instead of the 40M that I have set. Any idea why one would take and the other wouldn't?

kvnband,

Welcome to WebmasterWorld!

You might want to ask about this in the PHP forum too, since there are more PHP folks over there.
