Setting PHP tmp dir - PHP upload not working

Question

I\'m working on file upload via a webpage with a progress bar using Valums file uploader. Almost everything works fine, but I\'m not able to change the default tmp directory

Answer 1

I struggled with this issue for a long time... My solution was to modify the php.ini file, in the folder that contained the php script. This was important, as modifying the php.ini at the root did not resolve the problem (I have a php.ini in each folder for granular control). The relevant entries in my php.ini looked like this.... (the output_buffering is not likely needed for this issue)

output_buffering = On 
upload_max_filesize = 20M 
post_max_size = 21M
