Zend Validator Size for File Uploading Form - Zend Framework 2.3

Question

I have a problem with Zend\\Validator\\File\\Size;

I have a File input Uploader and I have set its validator like this:

$fileInput->getValidatorChain()
    ->attach(new Validator\File\Size(array('min' => '10kB', 'max' => '4MB')))
    ->attach(new Validator\File\UploadFile())
    ->attach(new Validator\File\isImage());

So, this code works fine but Validator\\Size doesn't work correctly. if I try to upload a file is between 4mb to 8mb works correctly and dipslay "File exceeds the defined ini size", when I try to upload a file bigger than 8mb, it's display this error:

Warning: POST Content-Length of 9469269 bytes exceeds the limit of 8388608 bytes in Unknown on line 0

my php.ini

upload_max_filesize=8M post_max_size=8M

I want display the validation's error "File exceeds the defined ini size" also the file's size is bigger than 8Mb. I don't understand because doesn't happen it!

Answer 1

your upload_max_filesize & post_max_size should be bigger than 8M if you want to handle 8M as a max limit, or else you will receive those warnings.

if you are annoyed by those warning, this is a way to avoid them: How to prevent Warning: POST Content-Length and memory size
