We are trying to upload files to a joomla instance which are aproximately are 10 MB. Strangely the upload fails with:

```
This file is too large to upload.

```

We have full access for custom php.ini settings (SuPHP) and also full access to the root server, settings:

```
output_buffering = off
post_max_size = 100M
upload_max_filesize = 50M
memory_limit = 256M
max_execution_time = 250
max_input_time = 250

```

These settings are honoured by Joomla! as shown in the System Information within the administrative backend.

An Apache restart has been performed after changing values in php.ini.

Uploading files up to 2MB is possible (whereas even in the global php.ini the limit is set to 8MB).

Where is the sweet spot? Do we have to move to jquery solutions? Any help is appreciated.
