Assets won't upload large file?

Question

I'm running into an issue where Assets doesn't upload a file over ~10MB. I've used EE's file manager and that could upload two different files, one ~18MB and one ~23MB.

I have this in .htaccess (which is what was needed to get EE's file manager to upload the larger files):

php_value upload_max_filesize 32M
php_value post_max_size 32M

When trying to use Assets' File Manager, the progress bar loads up, then fades away, but the file never shows up anywhere. There is no error given, not even in the console.

I'm running EE 2.5.5 and Assets 2.0.5.

Edit: I have also changed php.ini on the server to match the above PHP values in .htaccess just in case. Still no go.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

It's possible you need to adjust additional php settings to get the large files to upload. These are the suggested settings to adjust for large file uploads.

upload_max_filesize
max_input_time
memory_limit
max_execution_time
post_max_size

Answer 2

Apache: Keep-Alive Timeout should be more than 5 and turned on (2GB files is around 100)

PHP: check open_base

Server: your /tmp partition needs to be more than the to uploading file. Most /tmp partitions are 512M if your file is larger it won't work. If your /tmp is almost full you get the same problem. (uploads will be uploaded to the /tmp first before moved to your folder)

I guess that your problem lies -> /tmp

Any update on this issue? We started experiencing the same problem for any files > 2M (using a macMini with MAMP Pro 2.1.1, any version of PHP, w/ or w/o cache). Apache returns the following error: [notice] child pid 31439 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

Same symptom, the progress bar appears briefly then disappears immediately…And the image is not uploaded
