Demo Installed - Works for files under 1MB, has error message for files 1MB+

[JT_Dylan]

Hi,
   I want to edit the demo to allow large file uploads specifically for video uploads to S3.  I've installed the demo, changed folder permissions (777 - ugh), and have been able to upload images <1MB without error.  I tried images <2MB, the file uploads, but I receive the following error SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character.  I tried to modify the js/main.js file to change the upload settings (demo is set to 5MB or less) here are the edits I made (I'll leave out the whole file).

...
    if (window.location.hostname === 'blueimp.github.com') {
        // Demo settings:
        $('#fileupload').fileupload('option', {
            url: '//jquery-file-upload.appspot.com/',
            //maxFileSize: 5000000,
            //acceptFileTypes: /(\.|\/)(gif|jpe?g|png)$/i,
            maxFileSize: 5000000000,
            acceptFileTypes: /(\.|\/)(gif|jpe?g|png|mp4|mov)$/i,
            process: [
                {
                    action: 'load',
                    //fileTypes: /^image\/(gif|jpeg|png)$/,
                    //maxFileSize: 20000000 // 20MB
                    fileTypes: /^image\/(gif|jpeg|png|mp4|mov)$/,
                    maxFileSize: 5000000000 // 5000MB
                },
                {
                    action: 'resize',
                    maxWidth: 1440,
                    maxHeight: 900
                },
                {
                    action: 'save'
                }
            ]
        });
....

I then tried to upload a 60MB video (max file size set to 5,000,000,000 = 5GB above) but I still get the same issues, files under 1MB upload, 1.5MB uploads but with JSON.parse error message, and 60MB does not upload and has JSON.parse error message.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Regards,
John

Update:
Ok, I made the following changes in my PHP.ini

; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On

; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not
; specified).

upload_tmp_dir = /Applications/MAMP/tmp/php

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 0

max_execution_time = 60  ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
max_input_time = 180     ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 100M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

And now I can upload  files up to 33MB in size but no greater.  Any ideas on next steps?  I thought this code would relieve any need to make server side setting changes?

I changed the following in php.ini:

; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 500M

Now I can upload upwards of 250MB.  Largest video I have on my machine so I'll need to test with a larger file later. 

End changes to php.ini:

; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On

; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 500M

; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not

upload_tmp_dir = /Applications/MAMP/tmp/php

upload_max_filesize = 0

max_input_time = 180     ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 100M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

Question: What effect do these changes have for the server?  I'm guessing these maybe detrimental.  Any advice on how to avoid having to make these settings changes?  I'm planning to use AWS elastic beanstalk.

hey i'm having the same problem with the demo

i've also increased all of my php limits and the file uploads but i still get 

SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input

the files upload fine but the error shows up. 

smaller files work fine with no syntax error.

also question why do you have your upload_max_filesize set to 0?

is that on purpose?

Hey billy - Did you ever get your problem sorted out? I'm having the same issue - the file's upload but I'm getting SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input error" every time

[billy rennekamp]

It ended up being a max file limit issue.

i had the values changed in my php.ini but there was an .htaccess file overriding those values

whoops : \

try checking your developer panel in your browser and see exactly what the response your'ge getting is under network.

(command+option+j for chrome on a mac)

good luck

I'm having the same issue. Has anyone figured this out yet?

[billy rennekamp]

hey laurie,

did you check phpinfo() and your .htaccess file?

[Laurie Tsakiris]

hey billy thanks for replying.

im not running this in a php app Im running it in a cfml app. I will check the server vars for file size, etc though as mentioned previously
