For future reference, what would you (or anyone else that has an opinion 
on the matter) like to see the max upload size set as?  I think that we 
set 10MB rather arbitrarily, but put it in the neighborhood of PHP5, 
which has (by default) an upload_max_filesize set to 8MB.

We are totally open to increasing the limit if that is the consensus.
But to what value?


To immediately change the limit, perform the following steps.

-------------------

For a VPSv2.  Open up this file:

  /usr/local/cp/lib/ControlPanel.pm

Find this block of code:

     55   $self->{req}         = Apache::Request->new($_[1],
     56                                               POST_MAX => 1024 * 1024 * 10 + 1024 * 4,  # 10 MB plus slop
     57                                               HOOK_DATA => "$sessionid,$epoch",
     58                                               UPLOAD_HOOK => $upload_hook,
     59                                               TEMP_DIR => "/tmp");

on line 55, change the '10' in "1024 * 1024 * 10" to whatever you 
want... 12, 15, 20, etc.  Save and then restart apache.

-------------------

For a VPSv3 or LinuxVPS, open up this file:

  /usr/local/cp/lib/ControlPanel2.pm

Find this block of code:

     43   $self->{req}         = Apache2::Request->new($_[1],
     44                                               POST_MAX => 1024 * 1024 * 10 + 1024 * 4,  # 10 MB plus slop
     45                                               TEMP_DIR => "/tmp");

on line 43, change the '10' in "1024 * 1024 * 10" to whatever you 
want... 12, 15, 20, etc.  Save and then restart apache.
