PHP Upload - 500 Internal Server Error

Question

The Issue

When uploading files of around 8MB or over, I recieve a 500 Internal Server Error.

1. All PHP settings in php.ini are correct

Answer 1

IIS will re-use the FastCGI processes. You will need to kill off any old processes to get php.ini to reload.

Edit the FastCGI module and edit 'monitor changes to file' and select the php.ini file. This will force the child processes to restart whenever you save an edit.
