POST_MAX_SIZE setting problem

[Kicsihun]

Hello!
The problem I have, is that the $_POST array doesn't contain more than a 1000 elements. The post_max_size was initially set to 8Mb. I changed it to 40M with .htaccess, but the array size is still 1000, though it should be 2535, because at the Translation Tool there are 2535 expressions to be translated.
Are there other settings?

Thanks

Try using a php.ini file instead of .htaccess to increase the maximum post size.

I don't have access to the php.ini file. I tried it on localhost, with Wamp Server, setting the post_max_size to 100M and the memory_limit to -1 (unlimited) in php.ini, still the best result I got, was that the $_POST contained 1992 elements, instead of 2535.
I tried to set these values with ini_set, but still no luck.

Other suggestions? Are these values (100M and unlimited) too small?

Try adding these two lines to your /php.ini file.
If you don’t have one on your server, create on in the root of your site, and type these 2 lines in it.

suhosin.post.max_vars = 4096
suhosin.post.max_value_length = 4096

I don't have access to the php.ini, but I will contact the server administrator. I think this will do the trick, I checked the PHPInfo and the suhosin.post.max_value is set to 1000.

Thanks!

Most decent servers let you create a php.ini in your /www folder which will only affect your site.

[Kicsihun]

The suhosin.post.max_value is now 4096, the suhosin.post.max_value_length was already set to 1000000, but the $_POST's size is still 1000.

[tomerg3]

Perhaps your host is ignoring the php.ini file.

You can check it using phpinfo() and see what the values are set for those variables.

[Kicsihun]

I've checked both of them at the phpinfo:
suhosin.post.max_vars = 4096
suhosin.post.max_value_length = 1000000

Hmm, not sure then, it's the first time I see this issue....

[Kicsihun]

Should I attach a screenshot with the suhosin settings?

[tomerg3]

if you say you see it in the phpinfo file, I believe you...
I just don't know what else it could be without taking a closer look, and unfortunately I don't have the time for that.

[Kicsihun]

If you'll have the time please let me know I'm out of ideas. (
Anyway thanks a lot!

No one else with other suggestions???

Hi Kicsihun

 

Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm having the same problem. My host has tried modifying the server php settings, but still no luck.

 

I'm trying to copy a large table of data into a CMS page (6 columns x 500 rows) and each cell is 1 element, so I need to increase the $_POST array to 3000. But how to do this?

 

Can anyone help please?

[mowax]

still looking for a solution for this...

 

is it possible to xref the table into the CMS page? any other ideas out there?
