Sounds good, this could be one of those little problems that takes awhile to figure out.

Edit: Has anyone been able to attach ANY zip file around that size? I just thought of something, I believe you may have to change the size of attachments in PHP and MySQL.

I tried a few different zip files of that size and none worked. The only zip file I could get to work was under 1mb.

Sounds like it's the problem I stated above. Did some looking around over at vB's support forum, and came up with this.

In addition to the vB settings, the allowed size of the attachments depends on the PHP and MySQL configuration. You may need to check and change the upload size for both PHP and for MySQL. Note, you'll need to have root access to the server to do this (or have your host do it.) Make these changes to php.ini:

upload_max_filesize = xM

..and my.cnf (or my.ini for Windows systems)

set-variable=max_allowed_packet=xM

Change it to the size ('x') you want in Megabytes. Restart the webserver and MySQL after making these changes.

Holic - Thanks for the info. I'll see what we can do.

No problem bro, I've got several years under my belt at these kind of things. I know it can be a pain in the you know what when you've got absolutely no idea where to look. I think we're on the right path here though. Good luck.

Re: File upload problems

Thank you very much fellas...
I knew I had uploaded files before(PS2)...without a hitch. I thought something was amiss!...
Good luck.

Re: File upload problems

Was anyone able to get anywhere on this?
I was just thinking...that as a stop-gap measure...I might be able to upload each file individually...and let the downloader put them into a folder...but it would be nice to do it all in one upload.
