Even if you got php to do the large file, then - if I remember correctly, apache has a 4GB file size limit unless it has large file size support compiled in.

André R.	Thursday 10 September 2009 12:54:32 am Webdav is still handled by http, so is limited by the same limitations. There are two options, and they both involve coding: * modify the file / media datatype to let you browse a specific folder on the server, and use ftp to upload the file there* * Create an extension similar to the ezmultiupload extension, but use any of the large upload clients instead of the YUI Upload/SWFUpload . Most of them seems to be written in java, and they normally split the file up in smaller pieces and sends one piece at a time. So you'll also need to merge them back together on the server. Large file upload is on the roadmap for 4.3, but thats another 6 and a half month away, and there is no guarantee that it will stay on the roadmap or slip to the next version. * We do actually have code for this, so I'll try to clean it up and make it public soon. eZ Online Editor 5: http://projects.ez.no/ezoe \|\| eZJSCore (Ajax): http://projects.ez.no/ezjscore \|\| eZ Publish EE http://ez.no/eZPublish/eZ-Publish-Enterprise-Subscription @: http://twitter.com/andrerom

Jean-Yves Zinsou	Thursday 10 September 2009 3:17:48 am Hello, i have integrated for a client a java applet that allows the user to upload large files to a temporary file on the server an then select them to be integrated to ezpublish as a standard file. Of corse an ftp server is needed, would you like me to submit it as a contribution , or have you find a solution ... Jey Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Steven E. Bailey	Friday 12 March 2010 5:01:23 am I've created an extension to allow for large file uploads using Moxiecode's plupload www.plupload.com - I've been testing with file sizes up to 1.5 GB using the flash runtime. It's still in beta, but you can take a look at the code at http://code.google.com/p/ezplupload/ Certified eZPublish developer http://ez.no/certification/verify/396111 Available for ezpublish troubleshooting, hosting and custom extension development: http://www.leidentech.com
