Sorry that I ask what is asked.
But in my case I can not upload files larger than 2GB, but the limit in settings 5000m in both PHP and website.
If the file larger 2GB, upload stops at some point, that is after uploading something about 200Mb.
And if I upload file larger 4GB, there is error "Size of the file ... is greater than limit".

Did you try abd adjust the PHP's max_input_time and php_value max_execution_time to a greater value e.g. 500?

I had read a lot of posts, and saw some recommendations for settings.
Here what I changed in php.ini:
post_max_size = 5000M
upload_max_filesize = 5000M
max_file_uploads = 20
memory_limit = 256M
max_input_time = 3600 (was 60)
max_execution_time = 3600 (was 30)

Perhaps your web hoster has an external limitation preventing large uploads. Try contacting your web hoster in regards to the upload limit and request an explanation why large uploads via PHP is not working. Keep me updated.
Thank you.

I cannot do that, because it is my own server. And there is no external limitation preventing large uploads.

Okay, what is the maximum file upload you can upload before PHP timeouts? After you know that, try to triple the time out and max execution time value, and see if you can upload larger files than before.

Open ./upload.php and add this line
- Code: Select all
set_time_limit(0);
just after the DaddyScripts commenting section, and see if larger uploads now work.

No, it did not help.
I tried different numbers(0, 300, 3000) but it did not give any result.

In theory that should work. I will investigate into this issue further.
