Php.ini is not part of the Moodle
Go to the Moodle admin Eg http://moodle/admin/
At the bottom of the screen is a button called PHP info ...click it
Search for upload_max_filesize to check its value
Search for post_max_size to check it value
If they are big enough change the maxbytes setting in the Moodle
configuration.
If not contact your host and asked them to edit php.ini
Contact me directly if you need more help, 9731 9444

Oliver
Thank you for this information.
My Moodle has been installed on Openlab. I have used the File Manager
that comes with Webmin for my work there.
Where, in the Moodle file structure, is php.ini located?
Thanks
Maggie

Hi Keith
1. Search for the php.ini file and open it in a text editor
2. Increase the post_max_size directive
3. Increase the upload_max_filesize directive
Contact me if you need more help

Thank you Stephen.
I am using easy-php and apache. My limit appears to be set in php at 2MB
and so in Moodle this is the upper limit at this juncture.
Does anyone know how I can get into php and change the
"upload_max_filesize" setting.
It may also be necessary for me to get into Apache and adjust the
setting for 'LimitRequestBody' if that is also only 2MB (I was not able
to determine this setting).
Regards, Keith.
