krimchik Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Hi, new to all this, and having loads of trouble. I have a virtual dedicated server, and I am trying to change the max upload on php.ini, having problem after problem.I foolowed this http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=95911.msg384326and it makes sense. But the file tells me is read only, and I can't seem to change it. How??I have also accessed via ftp and tried to write over the file, and can not.So no matter if I use ssh or ftp I can not change it. So I need to know how to get it done? I have access to the root and have whm and cpanel, if it matters. Any help wpuld be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Are you logging in via ssh as root? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krimchik Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 I use my IP to log in as specified by the host. So yes, I blieve it is the root. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffear Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 presumably you have remembered to restart apache after making the changes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 [quote]I use my IP to log in as specified by the host.

It would be safer to ssh as a normal user and then su to root. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
