No uploadlimit - still file to big?

Hi everybody!

I've set my upload properties to 0 (zero) so there has to be no limit. But I still get the message that my file is to big (1,1 mb) while uploading it. How's this possible?

Thanks!

Please let me know where you are uploading files and which method you are using?

I'm uploading the photos in the frontend (underneath the album where the pictures has to be in) and I'm using Java

Uploading in backend with java is no problem.

Thanks!

Yes they're also set to 0 (zero) in the parameters component of the menu link

BTW I'm using version 2.5.0

It seems like java upload script doesn't accept 0 but need "" (in the manual there is written it takes the same way 0 as "")

I will change the script so instead of 0 the "" will be added to the script.

for now you can set some large amount (e.g. the same large as your server limit is)

The problem with large files can be in converting the image to thumbnails and getting fatal error from GD (about the memory) so it is recommended to not set 0 there
