Check settings in .htaccess in RoundCube root folder.

By default it is limited not to upload files larger than 5MB

sorry rosali I do not have .htaccess file for roundcube just let you know I installed roundcube with sudo apt-get install roundcube from ubuntu.

OK, then I hope someone else jumps into this thread. I'm not familiar with Linux.

bc I dont have any problems sending large files with squirrelmail but when I try to send it from roundcube it will just set there saying sending message for long time and noting happens.

Is there anything in your RC error log? PHP could be running out of memory, RC is known to really guzzel it up for attachments.

timreichhart · « **Reply #6 on:** June 15, 2009, 04:13:15 PM »

it would not be a memory issue because if that was a case then squirrelmail would be doing same thing as rc so it sounds like a issue with roundcube.

alright after looking in the rc/logs I need this:

Code: [Select]

So it is memory issue. You can compare with Squirrelmail. The way RoundCube handles attachments is rather resource consuming. It is a known issue and devs discuss about it since months.

... this indicates that php.ini memory_limit is set to 16M. Increase it to 64M. By default this is done by the .htaccess file in the root folder. You stated yours is missing. So, either download and install it separately or adjust php.ini itself. Notice: .htaccess settings do not apply in cases. Your php may be set to ignore .htaccess files or parts of settings in there.

If you do not have access to your php settings you'll need assistance of your hosting company.

ok please tell me where to look at? bc I already upgraded my php.ini file to 64mb

bc I am the one who is hosting my own mail server and not by some crappy web hosting company.

well if its a known issue then get the problem fix.

timreichhart · « **Reply #10 on:** June 16, 2009, 11:54:29 PM »

well is going to help with this known issue.

rosali · « **Reply #11 on:** June 17, 2009, 01:13:56 AM »

We can't fix this, we are not the devs. Contact devs at RoundCube Mailing Lists.

But first fix your php to allow 64M memory allocation and not only 16M. This should help even if RoundCube attachment handling is still rather resource consuming.

timreichhart · « **Reply #12 on:** June 17, 2009, 01:59:57 AM »

I have fix it and im just done with this crappy web client.

elbek · « **Reply #13 on:** June 07, 2010, 02:20:42 PM »

to fix this issue open your roundcube folder where is installed at hosting.

open your .htaccess file and edit it and change this line from:

php_value memory_limit 64M to:

php_value memory_limit 128M

Be sure that your php.ini give you more than 64 MB of memory too.

Restart apache2

hope this help.
