[Oliver A. R. <ol...@ne...>]

I'm currently using openupload but i cannot upload files if its > 2gb. 
I've already upgraded my OS to 64-bit including php and apache packages.

Any thoughts?

I'll need some more info.
I suppose you already set the php.ini to handle file upload and posts 
bigger that 2GB.

Also you do not have any .htaccess file which might interfere with it.

If this is so what does the error log say about the upload?

I found this... [1] so I suppose the also 64bit versions of PHP do not 
allow files bigger that 2GB, and that's bad news...
I have tryed it on my ubuntu 9.10 and the limitation seems to be there 
also, and the bad thing is that the script does not even get notified by it.
If I set the value bigger than 2GB in php.ini it is reverted back to the 
44bytes which does not even allow me to login...

Probably the only workaround is to use a perl cgi then.

yes, post max size and upload size have been set to 4000M

I removed the .htaccess which was on openupload www/ directory.

I think this is really the problem here.

yup, so no workaround right now, unless you decide to patch php.

yes, for the upload. I have a basic implementation of this, but it needs 
some more devel to be able to trak the upload status. (obiously more 
dependencies here)

Also probably for such big files FTP would be a better way to upload. I 
have a feature request for this, but haven't done anything in that 
matter. Actually any other method can be used (scp, samba, etc) but this 
is more suitable for distributing big files to the outside.
