Have you asked your hosts to check the max_file_size settings in your server’s php.ini file?

Here is my php.ini
; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
; http://php.net/file-uploads
file_uploads = On
; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not
; specified).
; http://php.net/upload-tmp-dir
;upload_tmp_dir =
; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
; http://php.net/upload-max-filesize
upload_max_filesize = 128M
upload_max_size = 64M
#post_max_size = 64M
#upload_max_filesize = 64M
; Maximum number of files that can be uploaded via a single request
max_file_uploads = 50
Why are these configured to different file sizes?
upload_max_filesize = 128M
upload_max_size = 64M
Try increasing upload_max_size to 128M
How large are the files you are trying to upload?
Have you asked your hosts for assistance? They could still be blocking the uploads at their end.

I thy to upload different file sizes from a few kB to a few MB.
No more success with :
upload_max_filesize = 128M
upload_max_size = 128M
I actually host myself on a dedicated server.
Maybe a recent apache update changed something?

It does sound like there’s a problem on the server rather than in WordPress but I’d have thought that a released apache update would be pretty sound. That said, it could be that the upgrade wasn’t 100% successful. Can you rollback to the previous apache version?

Thanks @esmi, but i would like to understand what is happening.
I have actually 2 php.ini files inside my /etc/php/7.0/apache2/ folder
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 69373 févr. 28 16:22 php.ini
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 71021 févr. 28 16:25 php.ini.ucf-dist
It seems the second overrides the first, as when i change values in it i can see the maximum upload size change in WP media upload admin panel….

Although WP indicates a max upload file size of 15 MB, which is not what is set in both files (64M), can a third config file be overriding this ?
can a third config file be overriding this
Short answer: yes
Longer answer: WordPress itself doesn’t impose any file size limits. It uses the limits set by the server’s configuration.

Can you imagine which file could override this ?
