http error uploading .zip

I’m using a plugin called: Easy Digital Downloads
I’m using it for Minecraft .bins for Xbox 360 I’ll put the world into a zip and upload it to the “Insert Media” page it will upload half way or all the way and fail with HTTP error.

I’ve looked online and some say add code php or .htaccess file. Wont work.
Disabled all plugins but Easy Digital Downloads Wont work.
Edit Single Post (single.php) Wont work.
Add Plugin: Default to GD Wont work.
Changed .zip to .rar I get: Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons.

The file is only: 30.7 MB and the file upload is set to 500MB
Added a file called: php.ini it contains:
memory_limit=256M
post_max_size=500M
upload_max_filesize=500M
I’m using Godaddy Linux Deluxe Memory 512, CPU 100, Processes 100
File Usage 10,216 / 250,000

I just started this site not to long ago. I’m frustrated. I’m new to this and 1 problem leads to 10 more.
I reverted everything back to normal on the things that did not work. I have clue what to do now.
I’m using Oria theme. Does this have anything to do with WordPress 4.7.5 being the problem? If so how do I downgrade without redoing everything again or will they fix it.

I came to WordPress on the hopes of using Easy Digital Downloads but running into so many problems is ridiculous.

what is your execution time (max_execution_time) in php.ini file?

post_max_size=500M

can you add to the file
max_execution_time = 10000
and then try again

Sorry for the late response. Still not working.
I added max_execution_time = 10000 to php.ini and restarted the upload after a refresh. No luck. It did this.

Froze on the load bar at the spot for 2min

Then it did this

Loaded the site in Firefox and tried it with a different name. It uploaded halfway and restarted then gone halfway again and showed the HTTP error.

What’s the deal with the upload system. Seems to work fine with Images and other types of items in a zip folder. Not .bin files in a zip folder. Never tried media yet.

Whats the deal with the security thing too with .rar.

I uploaded the same file in cPanel File Manager v3 in the exact edd folder as were the insert media would send it. it did upload the file, ruling that out.

I did refresh on the insert media to see if it would show in the list. It did not.
It’s not very continent to do everything manually. Kind of a pain. Mean time it works.
I would like to fix this though.

I did see a post on here about the security thing with .rar files on the word press version i’m using. You think this could be a bug too?

upload those files using FTP and add them to the media library using https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/add-from-server/

Add From Server imports to Insert Media. That solves my issue with it not displaying in the Insert Media from uploading from Files manager. Thank you for that 🙂 It will work in the meantime.

Still is there a solution to fix this Insert Media HTTP Error?

Can you check with you hosting company about php.ini file, because I still think that you have problems because of that.
