Hello
I am trying to use DevKinsta to import a WP that is not on Kinsta yet.
When I try to import the DataBase in Adminer, I have a message saying I should increase the Post_max_size in the configuration Php.
(it’s quite surprise given the database is only 30Mo…).
Nevertheless, I have NO IDEA where to look, and which line of code to change.
Could you please help? ( I’am not a developper, so don’t hesitate to detail each step).
Thanks!
Hi @AlexM . Welcome to DevKinsta!
We’re looking at increasing that value by default. In the meantime, it’ll need to be increased in the PHP configuration. I’m happy to help guide you on that! Just so I know the steps to provide, are you on Mac or Windows?
Open Terminal on your Mac and type in docker exec -it devkinsta_fpm bash
Type in apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get install nano. You will be prompted to type Y. This step will install nano so you can edit the file.
Then type in nano /etc/php/7.3/fpm/php.ini. You may need to change the 7.3 to another version. Match this with the version the site is on on DevKinsta.
There’s quite a bit here but what you’re looking for is post_max_size. To do a search, press control+w on your keyboard - type post_max_size - then enter.
Change this to your desired value. post_max_size = 64M should do it. Exit with control+x and press Y to save.
Type exit then docker restart devkinsta_fpm
Should be all good from there! Let me know if you have any questions about any steps here.
Hi @michael
Thanks for your reply.
It work.
Actually , I realized I was trying to upload my data base in .sql , and not compressed in sql.gz.
Once compressed it worked.
Thanks again!
