Hello,

We've recently increased our Max Upload and Max Post size to 500M in the PHP file to allow for larger file uploads. It seems, however, that these larger uploads tend to hang. They will set with the uploading icon spinning forever. Nothing in the Apache of Mahara error logs. This happens with files around 100MB or larger.

We're running Apache 2 on Debian with Mahara 1.4.

Any help would be much appreciated.

It's worth checking that you don't have anything in your apache virtualhost or in an htaccess file that's overriding the values in php.ini.  Also, make post_max_size quite a lot larger than the upload_max_filesize, because only files between the two sizes will give a useful error message (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/634193)
