You tried to upload a file that was too large

How did this happen?

The file is larger than either:
  • the PHP 'post_max_size' setting
  • the PHP 'upload_max_filesize' setting
  • the website's setting for the maximum file size
  • the website's setting for the maximum image size (if it is an image)
  • your remaining quota space

How do I fix it?

Go to the Admin Zone, then the Setup section, then the Configuration icon, then the Security options, then the 'Upload' section. You will see the PHP and website settings laid out here. If you need the PHP options changed you can likely use a php.ini or .htaccess file to do it – see the FAQ.

It is unlikely you are being affected by a quota restriction, as by-default staff do not have any quota restrictions. You can see quotas when editing usergroups.
