Change upload max filesize for a Particular Domain

By default, PHP limits file uploads based on the upload_max_filesize directive. Sometimes, you need to increase this limit for a particular domain rather than changing it globally. In Ensim, you can update this setting using the shell as a root user.

This guide will show you how to change the PHP upload_max_filesize for a particular domain in Ensim step by step.

Steps to Change upload_max_filesize for a Domain

1: Run the Command
Use the following command to set the new upload size limit (here, 20MB is an example):
echo “php_admin_value upload_max_filesize 20MB” > /etc/httpd/conf/sitexx/uploadmaxsize

2: Replace Site Number
In the above command, replace xx with your actual site number.

3: Find the Site Number
Run the following command to identify the correct site number:
sitelookup -d yourdomain.com

4: Restart Apache
After making the change, restart Apache for the new configuration to take effect:
service httpd restart.

Pro Tip:

If you need different limits for multiple domains, repeat the process for each domain with its site number. Always ensure you don’t set the limit higher than your server’s available memory.
