Dear sir/madam, I need to change settings in phpMyAdmin in order to upload larger backupfile. Currently I can only load 50Mb which is not enough. I have followed your instructions how to upload larger backup files on the server, but when I tried to locate php.ini in order to copy it to my subdomain folder, I found out that I cannot locate it.

Please help me!

Thanks

Hello markomaja, Thank you for your question. Here is a helpful link to our guide on how to Increase the Max File Upload size in PHP.INI. If you do not have a default php.ini file, please contact Live Tech Support. They can copy the default php.ini for your server, to your account.

Hi, Firstly, let me state that I'm not a member of the staff. I've a VPS via Inmotion Hosting, and I was in a similar situation. I solved the upload procedure with the use of a .htaccess file. ---// example of .htaccess //---- php_flag short_open_tag Off php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off php_flag magic_quotes_sybase Off php_flag magic_quotes_runtime Off php_flag register_globals Off php_flag session.auto_start Off php_flag suhosin.session.encrypt Off php_value upload_max_filesize 50M php_value post_max_size 100M ---// example of .htaccess //---- I've uploaded the file to the root folder of my website. I hope it helps a little.... TTFN Cynthia P.s. keep in mind that you've to create .htaccess with a program like notepad! Disclaimer: always be cautious when working with. htaccess files, if you make a typo than your server will display an internal error message. If you encounter troubles, then simply delete the .htaccess file.
