 * I am working on a site that requires large uploads for printing. I am using Gravity
   Forms to allow the user to upload a file. I have adjusted my php.ini settings
   to the following:
 * memory_limit = 3G
    max_execution_time = 1200 post_max_size = 3G upload_max_filesize
   = 3G
 * i am able to upload large files through the backend media manager. I successfully
   uploaded a 1.6G file. However, the front-end upload always times out. I am able
   to upload small files, but I have even had a 20MB file fail.
 * Here is the page I am testing with.
 * [http://ht6q-77zp.accessdomain.com/?product=product](http://ht6q-77zp.accessdomain.com/?product=product)
 * Does anyone have any insite into what I should do?

 * I doubt your host would allow either a mem limit of **3G** or a max post size
   of **3G** or a max upload file size of **3G**…I also doubt they will leave scripts
   to run for 20 minutes…verify with host…

 * I have a dedicated virtual. I can change my settings to whatever I want and have.
