I am attempting to adopt some code to work more reliably then how
it is now...
What I am doing is coding a upload form where people could be
uploading .zip files in excess of 200 MB... Yes I know that is
large, but it's for a print shop and they get HUGE files to print
from.
The code I'm having issues with is this:
$filename = $_FILES['userfile']['name']; // Get the name of the
file (including file extension).
$ext = substr($filename, strpos($filename,'.'),
strlen($filename)-1); // Get the extension from the filename.
All I want to do is grab the file extension and verify that it is
a .zip or a .pdf etc. file. This is working for small files (under
a few megs) but for some reason it fails when I get bigger. I have
increased the allowed memory size to 50 MB's I'm testing with a 44
MB file right now.
When it fails, it says the file type is not allowed even though it
is listed in the file type array.
Hopefully I have given you enough to go on to at least ask me some
questions :)
Sounds like you haven't increased upload_max_filesize in php.ini.
If you actually look at what's in $_FILES['userfile'] you'll see
most of it's empty. I suggest you add some more error checking
rather than assuming everything worked ok.
Hey Stut,
I'm looking into that now, i just increased the php.ini
upload_max_filesize to 250M and tried uploading a 44MB file and it
failed... I'll try and add some more error checking, but I'm really
leaning towards the problem being in the code I posted... But
please, prove me wrong! :)
Did you restart the web server after changing it? Are you sure you're
editing the right php.ini?
There's nothing wrong with our code that I can see. On an efficiency
note you don't need the last parameter to substr - if it's omitted it
defaults to the remaining test.
I would suggest doing a var_dump on $_FILES['userfile'] before the
code you've posted to check it contains the right stuff. If not then
it's the upload that's failing and nothing in your code.
