This discussion is related to the FileUpload addon.

There is config setting:

$Configuration['Garden']['Upload']['MaxFileSize'] = '5M';

However, this is initially set to 50M so you may have another problem. There are two php ini settings that also control your max file upload: post_max_size and upload_max_filesize. If it's one or both of these setting you're going to have to get them changed with your web host.

Thats an interesting point Todd. Why is it set at 50 big ones ?

I think we made it big to accommodate imports.

it's probably because your php settings are limiting you.... per Todd's original reply. I had to modify my ini file, so too is likely your fate. Talk to your hosting provider...
