I want to allow uploading of huge video files, which may be as big as 4 GB. But when I try to set
post_max_size = 4G
upload_max_filesize = 4G
in php.ini, it doesn't work and everything in post (posted data) is ignored.
I get a warning about size of posted data greater than some negative number.
I read somewhere that php stores this data in integer.
I have tested it on 64 bit system (php 5.1.6 installed on Mandriva 2007.0) as well as 32 bit system (php 5.2.2 installed on windows xp sp2).
Value up to, I think, 2147483647 bytes or ( around 1.999.. gb) works
We need to allow uploading of 4 GB files. Is there any solution.
Yeah, don't use HTTP. Seriously, HTTP is a crappy mechanism for
uploading files, especially large ones. And by large ones I mean >~20MB!!
You need to look into maybe a java applet, or just plain FTP/SFTP/SCP
for files that big. HTTP was never designed to handle uploading files of
that size. For a start there is no facility to restart the upload should
it get interrupted and fail.
