Upload size settings

BookStack

The upload limit in BookStack is configured through an option in your .env file. Find or add the follow option then configure to your requirements.





# File Upload Limit
# Maximum file size, in megabytes, that can be uploaded to the system.
FILE_UPLOAD_SIZE_LIMIT=50













PHP


PHP has two main variables which effect upload limits. Find your php.ini file and look for the following variables:


    

  • post_max_size
    • 

  • upload_max_filesize
    • 



If the values of these variables are low increase them to something sensible that’s not too high to cause issues. Unless you need something higher 10MB is a sensible value to enter for these values:
















post_max_size = 10M
upload_max_filesize = 10M













If wanting to upload files over 128MB, you may also need to adjust your PHP memory limit like so:
















memory_limit = 256M













After updating these values ensure you restart your webserver and also PHP if using PHP-FPM or something similar.
