Changing PHP upload size

If you need to change the accepted upload size in Snipe-IT, you will need to modify your php.ini file in two places:

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 25M

; Must be greater than or equal to upload_max_filesize
post_max_size = 30M

Then restart your web server for the changes to take effect.

If you're not seeing those changes reflected, make sure you are:

  1. Editing the right php.ini file. (This seems obvious, but many servers have several versions of PHP installed, and it's easy to accidentally edit the wrong one.)
  2. Restarting the web server after making changes to the ini file.

If upload_max_size is set to 0, PHP will consider that to mean unlimited, however that does not guarantee that the server can properly handle very large uploads without exhausting memory.
