    Hi,

    I am trying to upload files through the file-manager interface and get a "The file you are trying to upload is too big." Error, because the file is pretty large (8megs)

    I tried setting adminstration - miscellaneous - maximum file size to a larger value (30megs), unfortunately that doesn’t work
    I have not found a config file where to set that, yet.
    Also, Uploading this file in the FCKeditor does not work, either.

    What do I have to set to get uploading of larger files working?

    Thanks a lot for your help
    Steffen

      php itself usually has a limit of 8mb or so.

          You can see the max upload limit that your server has from phpinfo. Also look at max post data setting while you’re at it.
