I am currently playing with a 64 bit machine. I can set my upload_max_filesize = 2G and that works fine; however, post_max_size is a problem. if I set it to 2 G it seems to fail (no POST transactions go through, it seems). If I set it just a tad lower (what I have now is post_max_size = 1948M ) it works fine. So the cutoff limit is somewhere in the 2G neighborhood. Any idea why that would be? Is there a parameter anywhere that limits how far post_max_size may go? The total memory setting I use is way above ( memory_limit = 6G ) and that seems not to cause any issues. Thanks for your advice everybody. Cheers, Boris.
