"How do the limits on uploaded files work?"
Martin explains where/how to change the settings.
Your upload limit might be constrained by your own server settings, admin settings in Moodle or Module-level limits
Here's a copy of Martin's answer:

File upload sizes are restricted in a number of ways - each one in the list restricts the following ones. 1. Firstly, there is a setting in Apache 2 which you may need to change. On Redhat this setting is very low by default, you can change the limit by adding or editing a line in Apache's /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and/or /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf with the upload size in bytes (different operating systems may have these files in different locations): LimitRequestBody 10485760 2. PHP also has two more byte limits, which you can set in php.ini and sometimes in a .htaccess file: php_value upload_max_filesize 50000000 3. Moodle 1.2 has a site-wide limit called maxbytes that you can set in the Admin -> Configuration -> Variables page. 4. Each course can also set a limit - teachers can do this on the Course Settings page. 5. Activity modules like forums and assignments have their own limits which you set when adding or editing the activity. |
