Uploading very large files fails with error
Sun, 08/29/2010 - 22:58
Running 2.0.2 uploading video files larger than 2 GB. After 1% or so, error pops up: "No Files Uploaded An error occurred during the upload. Please try again." I have tested files smaller than 2 GB (up to 1.7 GB) and everything seems fine. Is this a maximum size setting that can be changed?

The limitations are set in the Kaltura CE Apache configuration file located at:
[installation path]/app/configurations/apache/my_kaltura.conf
It contains these lines:
## PHP directives #################
php_value memory_limit 64M
php_value max_execution_time 60
php_value post_max_size 1600M
php_value upload_max_filesize 1524M
php_value variables_order EGPCS
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off
###################################
Try changing them (and restarting Apache).

Any idea?

Same thing here... I'm trying to upload a big mov file (2.4Gb) but when I click the upload button, it tells that the upload failed.
Here is the trace from /opt/myKalturaApp/log/kaltura_api_v3.log
How can I resolve this issue?
Thanks!

Seem like the only solution for this is to upload large files from an ftp server by using .csv file but for me didn't work.

I manage to transfer a big file but this is a hack.
I have first uploaded a small .mov file on the server, then Kaltura ask me to fill the metadata related to the video. Before clicking next, I looked into the /opt/myKalturaStorage/content/uploads folder on the server and identify the file that I have uploaded (0_7458ab92796ad2648e86f72b13564838.mov). Using rsync, I have replace that file with the "big one" and then clicked Next. Everything works fine after that.
I needed to make this workaround because I needed to make the proof of concept that Kaltura can handle HD files. It works really well. But now if I want to allow user to upload content, I need to find a way to upload big file without the need of doing that manual operation each time...

good one. i intend to use it with wordpress(all in one...) and i am planning to encode lot's of movies and using your hack takes some time. i am still expecting somebody on this forum -admin- might have an idea on how to bulk upload large files.

Any updates on this? I'm still stuck at a 2GB upload limit.

Have the same problems! Wanna upload HD Videofiles , short Videoclips, but every file has a min. size of 2,5 GB. Tried the manual solution, but there is no file in /opt/kaltura/web/content/uploads ...
Is there no possibility to change the upload limit?
Changes in php.ini and uiconf dont work ...
Is there a upload limit inside the upload.swf ?
... questions over questions but it seems there is no solution around ...

The import option in the kmc is my workaround to upload large files. I've changed the upload limits within apache and kaltura and still no go...it could be browser and/or workstation memory limits causing the inablity to upload more than 2.5 gb.
We are going to move from 1.5x to 2.0 because the file upload limit is set to 200 Mb which is insanely small when talking video.
I can live with a 2 Gb upload limit if that is what it truly is. In Kaltura 2.0 can you throttle upload sizes down in the server settings?
We are hosting a Drupal multi-site for schools and want to implement Kaltura 2.0 in hopes that we will be able to split the IDs up.
Any advice?
Thanks!
