Dan,

Currently we have the following:

    upload_max_filesize "25M"
    post_max_size "25M"
    max_input_time 1800

Since we're on a shared host...I have no clue about the setting for LimitRequestBody.

The puzzle is that it doesn't take a large file to cause the problem. Just a file about 2meg will cause the timeout.

Jeff

Jeff,

You may be falling afoul of one of the configuration options related to
file uploads in PHP:

    upload_max_filesize "128M"
    post_max_size "50M"
    max_input_time 600

Or Apache:

    LimitRequestBody 53000000

The settings above are usually sufficient to allow uploads up to 40MB+,
assuming the client is able to upload fast enough to complete the upload
in under 10 minutes.
