This WordPress site is being hosted by BlueHost (with cPanel). It is running on WP version: 6.2.2, and PHP Version ea-php74.
According the the WP's media 'add new' page, the Maximum upload file size is: 1 GB. But I can't upload a .MP4 file greater than 100MB. (ie: I can upload a 99MB .MP4 file, but not a 102MB [or greater] .mp4 file). I have tried various different .MP4 files ranging from 102MB to 300MB, and none on them can successfully upload.
When I try, I get this error:
Unexpected response from the server. The file may have been uploaded successfully. Check in the Media Library or reload the page.
The files definitely haven't been uploaded, verified by looking online via FTP.
I've contacted Tech-Support at BlueHost, but they can't figure out what the problem is on their side.
When I look at their cPanel's MultiPHP INI Editor, here are the values:
max_execution_time: 1000sec;
max_input_time: 1000sec;
max_input_vars: 3000;
memory_limit: 1G;
post_max_size: 1G;
session.gc_maxlifetime: 1440sec;
upload_max_filesize: 1G;
So everything looks like it should work.
Is there some other WP or Plugin or PHP or Server setting I should be looking at that might have the 100MB limit that overrides everything else? The only error_log file I can find online is at the root level, and doesn't have anything to do with uploads (only has sitemap error log entries from 2022).
Hopefully someone has run into this problem before.. maybe specific to the BlueHost servers, that can give me some guidance on solving this issue.
.
