Large file upload times out session?

[GlitterKill]

I have a fully working form tools 2.2.5 install that works perfect when I am uploading files around 15MB to 45MB or so... HOWEVER, the files that are intended to be uploaded through the form are quite a bit larger; around 800MB to 1.5GB. (yes, I know that is a LARGE file...).

When trying to test a submission using a 800MB file, the file uploaded after about a min, which then took me to the process.php page with an error stating that the page was loaded without any submission data... I can only assume that the session timed out while the upload was taking place?

If so, is there a time out setting in Form Tools, or do I need to set this in Apache/PHP?

Thanks in advance!

Hey GlitterKill,

Happy New Year! The session time out can be changed under Settings > Account > Default Sessions Timeout however this is different than a the file timing out which is probably set by your hosting company.

With files as large as 1.5 GB I suspect that you might have issues uploading these. You will need to make revisions to the php.ini file and change the following settings.

- max_input_time (Maximum time in seconds a script is allowed to parse input data, like POST, GET and file uploads)
- upload_max_filesize (Maximum size of an uploaded file)
- post_max_filesize (Maximum size of post data allowed)

In Apache:

- TimeOut (Amount of time the server will wait for certain events before failing a request)
- LimitRequestBody (Restricts the total size of the HTTP request body sent from the client)

Hope this helps.
