Oosat2 help

Post by milinks »

Probably a strange request :oops: I am attempting to upload a file to Oosat2, very simple, however the file is 44MBs, and, although my internet connection is very fast etc, it baulks, and after 5 minutes the screen crashes with cannot find server etc. I would rather put it up before i say what it is, nothing dubious honest!!! If anyone has an idea as to why this is occuring or how to rectify then please let me know.

Most html based uploaders get into trouble with very large files. Sometimes the limit is as low as 5MB. Can you try breaking the zip into two and uploading them separately?

The admin of the Oosat2 site should be able to adjust the timeout for uploads.

I know in ASP it's something like Session.Timeout. I dunno the PHP equivalent.

Code: Select all

set_time_limit
among other options.
And so I gave myself to God. There was a pregnant pause before He said "OK"
