How to Increase Max File Upload size in PHPMyAdmin in PHP Nginx

Use the below-given steps to set or increase file upload size in NGINX. For set/increasing max file size upload in PHP Nginx will use the client_max_body_size directive to set the NGINX max file upload size limit. So, i will add client_max_body_size directive in http, server or location; is as follow:

• Step 1 – Open NGINX configuration file
• Step 2 – Increase File Upload Size in NGINX
• Step 3 – Restart NGINX

Step 1 – Open NGINX configuration file

Execute the following command on the terminal to open the NGINX configuration file in a text editor.

$ sudo /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Step 2 – Increase File Upload Size in NGINX

Now, increase file upload size to 100MB across your entire site. So edit the line client_max_body_size 100M: as follows:

http{
   ...
   client_max_body_size 100M;
   ...
}

To increase file size upload limit only for HTTPS requests but not HTTP requests. In that situation, the line client_max_body_size 100M to server block that listens to HTTPS port 443 but not the server block that listens to port 80.

server{
  listen 80;
  ...
}
server{
  listen 443;
  ...
}

You can also use the above technique, if you want to set file upload size only for a specific website/domain/subdomain/app.

In that, you can add the line client_max_body_size 100M. Let’s say you want to increase file upload size for /uploads folder

location /uploads {
    ...
    client_max_body_size 100M;
}

Step 3 – Restart NGINX

Execute the following command on the terminal to restart Nginx:

$ sudo nginx -t

If there are no errors, execute the following command on terminal to restart NGINX server.

$ sudo service nginx reload #debian/ubuntu
$ systemctl restart nginx #redhat/centos
