Unable to upload files larger than 128KB error because of MaxRequestLen update

apache-2.2 upload php.ini mod-fcgid

6,924

Solution:

FcgidMaxRequestLen -->This is causing the problem. Before updating to the newest version, it was default set to 1gb. Now it is 128kb. Add the following to the file /etc/apache2/conf.d/fcgid.conf :

FcgidMaxRequestLen 1073741824

This wil give you a limit of 1gb. Next, restart your apache.

server :
Plesk panel 10.3.1,
PHP 5,
Apache2

When I updated the plesk panel, I noticed a strange error while uploading files. My server does not allow any file to be uploaded above the 128kb, even when the settings in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini are set to higher sizes.

my settings:
```
upload_max_filesize = 10M,
post_max_size = 8M,
memory_limit = 128M
```
The error is really not clear. In drupal this is returned: http error 0 (when uploading I receive a 500 internal server error)

when i upload a smaller file like 50kb, it just saves it on the server. When i type whereis then i receive this:/usr/bin/php /usr/lib/php /usr/share/php /usr/share/man/man1/php.1.gz

Is there a php.ini in /usr/share/php?

no, i also did a sysinfo with php and found out he uses /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini but we have the same settings in this file. any other ideas? the other php.ini's are not filled or not in the dir.

The error you described also could mean that your Drupal is not configured correctly. Check the settings on that and refer to the image above for reference. Also try what Janne has suggested ~
