Adjusting Max File Size - Stuck at 16M After Adjusting general.php

Question

I'm adjusting the maxUploadFileSize in Craft, to 50MB.
In following the post below, I made several adjustments to both: php.ini and craft/config/general.php. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3263480/upload-max-size-in-php

First, I adjusted settings in php.ini:

upload_max_filesize 
post_max_size

In general.php (craft/config), the following was already set:

  define('URI_SCHEME',  ( isset($_SERVER['HTTPS'] ) ) ? "https://" : "http://" );
  define('SITE_URL',    URI_SCHEME . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . '/');
  define('BASEPATH',       realpath(CRAFT_BASE_PATH . '/../') . '/');

 return array(

  '*' => array(
        'environmentVariables' => array(
        'omitScriptNameInUrls' => true,
        'siteUrl'  => SITE_URL,
        'basePath' => BASEPATH,
        'maxUploadFileSize' => 62914560,
        ),
  ),
  'dev' => array(
    'devMode' => true,
  )


 );

I know that that is around 62MB, but I keep receiving an error message saying that there is a 16MB limit on files. All other files great than 2MB and less than 16MB now are upload-able.
Can anyone make a suggestion as to why the standard CraftCMS default of 16MB is now in place?

Thanks for any leads

Answer 1

My guess is that your php upload_max_filesize is set to 16M, you'll need to adjust that.

Answer 2

Since Craft 2.1 there is a setting maxUploadFileSize in craft/config/general.php. You should change this setting as well. Default value is 16777216 (16MB).
