2MB upload limit in Downloads Module

I am running a XOOPS site on 2.0.6 with the officially modified download module to allow uploading.

Everything is running perfectly except I cannot upload anything over 2mb. I have scoured the server for anything that might be restricting the uploads but have come up short. I am thinking it's somewhere in the download module, but I don't know where to look.

I can quite happily upload files larger than 2mb to the xoopsgallery module (1.33) which makes me more sure it's a limit of the downloads module.

If anyone could help I'd be most appreciative.

check admin downloads preferences in the downloads module itself..

look for max upload size and change it.. it's measured in bytes..

so it'll probly be set at 2000000 just add a 0 to the end and it'll give u 20Mm or set it however high u want..

some servers only allow a max upload size thru php of 20Mb tho..

Thanks for the reply m0nty, but that's not the problem. I already have my upload limit in the moudle set to 90000000 (90mb) and I have direct control of my php.ini which is set to 15mb.

I'm thinking there is something hidden in the module code that needs to be changed, but I just don't know what.

Probably, it could be just the script time limit specified in php.ini.

Please, reply if it's ok or not.

ok, so where is the "officially modified download module to allow uploading" ? I must have missed this. I just updated to 2.0.6 and I don't see it...

This would seem to be a pretty exciting development, i.e. supporting "upload" in "downloads". Seems odd that it hasn't been done before, in fact!

It's not a secret is it?

Seems to me that uploads used to be supported, but the functionality was dropped due to security concerns. I gave up a while ago on trying to hack the "mydownloads" module myself... Anyone know if support for uploading is being worked on again?

coldbeer, I had mine set to 30 seconds, which is plenty of time for me to upload 2+mb to my server (100mb ethernet connection). I will try and increase it now, but I don't think that will help.

Thanks for offering a solution though, I appreciate the effort.

Make sure you read all the comments, requires a small ammount of bug fixing to get working (this is RC1). I don't know if there ever was an RC2, or if there will be, but aside from the 2mb thing I have this working fine with my 2.0.6.

Catzwolf is working on this module, and I hope he'll release another RC version soon
