LARAVEL 5.4：ValidatePostSize.php中的PostTooLargeException（第24行）

Question

I am currently developing an app with Laravel 5.4. I am using xampp and changed the php.ini, php.ini-development and php.ini-production files with the following configurations

post_max_size = 100M

upload_max_filesize = 200M

memory_limit = 128M

I restarted Apache and my laravel development server but still, I get the error

Warning: POST Content-Length of 14253688 bytes exceeds the limit of 8388608 bytes in Unknown on line 0

PostTooLargeException in ValidatePostSize.php (line 24)

I even restarted my PC and still not working. Am I missing something here?

Thanks

You should read settings description prior changing it, because what you currently have makes little sense. File uploads goes via POST request, so value of upload_max_filesize must not be greater than post_max_size and you got opposite.

Another thing is, and this happens quite often, that you might have play with wrong php.ini file - this could be the reason why definitely smaller file than your limits cannot go thru. Also check if you by any chance do not have some settings overridden in i.e. virtualhost settings of your httpd. In general do phpinfo() and check if what it shows, matches with what you have edited (incl. certain parameters).

Restarting PC is rather pointless. All you need to restart is usually httpd only, yet sometimes you need to shut httpd down and start it again, not just tell it to reload (however PC restart enforces that cycle nonetheless, yet it's unnecessary to go to that extreme).
