Cannot increase maximum upload file size in local WordPress - apologized919317 - 07-27-2023
I am using my own **localhost** (ubuntu and apache2) for running wordpress 4.8 . I want to increase maximum upload file size. I tried these ways but didn't solve :
1.creating `php.ini` in `/var/www/html` or changing it in `/etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini`:
upload_max_filesize = 512M
memory_limit = 512M
post_max_size = 512M
max_execution_time = 300
2.changing `.htaccess` in `/var/www/html`:
php_value upload_max_filesize 512M
php_value post_max_size 512M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
3.adding these line of codes in `functions.php` file in the theme folder:
@ini_set('upload_max_size' , '512M');
@ini_set('post_max_size', '512M');
@ini_set('max_execution_time', '300');
4.using [Upload Max File Size plugin][1]. this plugin changed `Maximum upload file size: 2 MB.` message but after uploading file more than 2mb the `HTTP error.` accrued. (for fixing this i also tried every solution i found on web (ex: [+][2],[+][3],[+][4]) but nothing changed. also turning on wordpress log cant help me. there wasn't anything!! So i gave up. i think the root of this error is bad fix for this problem)
5.changing permissions of all files and folder to 777.
6.after every fix i tried, i also restart apache but nothing changed:
$ sudo service apache2 restart

you need also to add this filter to the functions.php file to see the allowed upload in your Wordpress , its good to not use plugin :)
//filter
add_filter('upload_size_limit', 'increase_upload');
function increase_upload($bytes) {
return 262144000;
}

You can change these lines on your `php.ini` file of currently running php version.
Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 256M

I shouldn't create any `php.ini` file in `/var/www/html/`. I found `/etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini` path in `phpinfo()` details. So i found and changed these configs in this file : `upload_max_filesize`, `memory_limit`, `post_max_size` and `max_execution_time`.

Go to C:/Xampp/php/php.ini and find:
memory_limit=.....M
Change it to:
memory_limit=10000M
Then scroll down to:
post_max_size=.....M
And change it to:
post_max_size=9999M
Find:
file_uploads=...
If it's of write:
file_uploads=On
Scroll down and find
upload_max_filesize=....M
Write there:
upload_max_filesize=9000M
Also find:
max_file_uploads=.....
And write there:
max_file_uploads=10000M
Attention! Be careful! "Memory_limit" should have the largest number of megabytes. The next is "max_file_uploads", after which is "post_max_size", and last the "upload_max_filesize".
If there is still the same error, make your .htaccess like this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /your_site_name/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /your_site_name/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
# WP Maximum Execution Time Exceeded
<IfModule mod_php7.c>
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value upload_max_filesize 9000M
php_value post_max_size 9999M
php_value max_input_time 300
</IfModule>
