What Is The Upload Amount Of My Account ?

cyph3r
Just a general question about the upload part in astahost.

How much MB of upload is possible in astahost ? I have a CMS where the default size is 2MB and they say that if i wanted to set the size to more , then i needed to contact the service provider to change the htaccess file ? is this true ?

How much MB upload can a 150MB 2nd package account like mine handle ? if i need more what do i do ?

I didn't quite get your question.. Here are the possible solutions:

1. If you're talking about how much MB of data you can upload - then this is only limited by the amount of diskspace you have, i.e. 150MB for the upgrade package. You can upload or store a total of 150MB of data - whatever it be (CMS, MySQL DBs, Web Site etc.) in your hosting account. It wouldn't matter if your CMS is 2MB or 20MB - you can still upload it as long as you've got sufficient disk space. Keep in mind, everytime you upload something - the size of the total upload is deducted from your disk quota. You can get an idea of your present disk quota from the cPanel (this is updated every 24hours).

2. If it's the amount of data that can pass to and from your account to the end-user's browser (your bandwidth) you're talking about - then it's 5 GB per month. A total of 5GB of data can flow out or in from your account every month. This includes both uploads to your account and downloads from it, including web-page views.

Thankx for the quick reply M^E .. i was looking at a possible answer for the first option. If i have a upload page and i tell the users that u can upload here .. how much can they upload to a max .. my mind varies because i am using e107 CMS and they say that the file upload limit for the user is 2 MB ONLY or depends on how much ur host is willing to allow. this is what the NOTE in admin panel says : Maximum file size
Maximum upload size in bytes - leave blank to conform to php.ini setting ( php.ini setting is 2M )

Is there a php.ini file ?

You're probably referring to the maximum upload limit PER USER - i.e. each user won't be able to upload more than 2MB. But this can be done over and over by many different users till your 150Meg gets exhausted.

I haven't used e107 - but if it's admin panel lets you set the max upload size then you can bypass this 2M limit and set it to any figure you like. If you set is to 10, each user will be able to upload 10Megs. As far as I can tell this acts like setting a quota system for each of your CMS members - so that they cannot go overboard with files and eat up your whole disk space.

yeap i got that part, but bottomline .. there is NO extra setting from the host side to increase the upload limit of each user ? rite .. because the CMS does not have a php.ini file , so was a little confused. And if there is a php.ini file .. where is it located ?

max file size limit?

Reply

I don't think your max file upload size limit is directly affected by php.ini. Say, for example, take the case of IPB - the software powering our board. You've got these file-size settings in the Admin Control Panel, which lets you fix the maximum disk quota for each member as well as the max limit for a single upload. I believe even e107 will have those options and thus doesnt really have anything to do with the php.ini.

Err, sorry I didn't see this post earlier when I had a similar question. Somehow I always find the threads I searched for and didn't find later on in the "similar threads" section. Did this work out for you? Because then I would be wondering how... I was trying to figure out how to upload bigger data amounts than 2MB but I did not come any further than to the php.ini which is not configurable by a standard user and which defines the setting globally for every upload using PHP (+ max post size which is 63MB or something, that's the second instance in there).
The only workaround I came across was a file-splitter with Java I found on the Web, but that doesn't appear good to me..
Please tell me what you achieved!

If you look at here : http://www.astahost.com/index.php?showtopic=6268&hl= you will see that astahost allows you uploading mp3 and video files, which are rather big files, usually more than 2 megs each (provided that you owe the rights for these files). So there are no real limitations on the upload size, if you don't exhaust your disk space. And, of course, 20 megs space is only ten times 2 megs...

  14. Php.ini Limits Upload_max_filesize - and thereby destroys all my hopes (14)
    Hej! As you all probably know, there is a file upload size limit, when uploading with PHP. It is the
    default preference in the php.ini (file that configures PHP) and cannot be changed by users.
    Currently it is set to the very low value of 2M. I think this is pretty low in an internet where
    quality gets better everyday and file size under 10MB are considered really small (yes, not occuring
    to web pages, but to a lot of other things). I am trying to make a small upload script for myself
