Request entity too large

Hi!

I have installed the Perfect Setup - Debian Sarge, everything works perfectly - but when i try to upload large files, i get an error: "Request entity too large".

How do i solve this problem?

Thanks //Jazzperson

 

I know - but i can't even install new templates or components in Joomla! CMS.. It's a major problem..

 

Apparently it has something to do with "LimitRequestBody" in php.conf.. But where is php.conf located?

 

No - it has nothing to do with FTP - The component and template installer in Joomla!CMS is based on php upload..

Request Entity Too Large
The requested resource
/inetservers/administrator/index2.php
does not allow request data with POST requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.
Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) PHP/5.2.0-8+etch7 mod_ssl/2.2.3 OpenSSL/0.9.8c Server at www.xxxx.eu Port 80

 

Oh - of cause.. My fault.. I'll try it..

 

post_max_size = 8M

upload_max_filesize = 2M

File size = 812 kb

No change..

One with the same problem: http://forum.mamboserver.com/showthread.php?t=19892 - I need to change "LimitRequestBody", but i don't know where..

 

You must add this to your Apache configuration: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#limitrequestbody

 

Thaks - I can't figure out exactly what to add.. Just LimitRequestBody 102400 to the first type of directives in apache2.conf? Is LimitRequestBody 0 = unlimited?

 

I've added it as you see, but it wont work.. What do i do wrong?

### Section 1: Global Environment

# The directives in this section affect the overall operation of Apache,

# can find its configuration files.

# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.

# NOTE! If you intend to place this on an NFS (or otherwise network)
# mounted filesystem then please read the LockFile documentation (available

# you will save yourself a lot of trouble.

# Do NOT add a slash at the end of the directory path.

ServerRoot "/etc/apache2"

LimitRequestBody 0

Did you restart Apache after making the edit?

 

Yes, of cause i did..

 

Sorry, but I had to ask. I've been known to forget that step in the past Especially when things are getting hectic.

 

Can you add the line to your vhost configuration within Apache (if you're using ISPConfig, put it in the Apache Directives field of that web site)?

 

Done - sadly there was no change.. Maybe some of this information can help?: http://www.inetservers.eu/phpinfo.php

 

Hmm.. Maybe a downgrade of Apache is the solution - i actually think it went wrong, when i upgraded to 2.2.3.. How do i downgrade without interrupting with ISPconfig?
