I tried modifying this Zend_Form_Element_File example to support larger file uploads but noticed that I’ve been getting “Undefined index” errors when my uploads are bigger than 8MB.
Notice: Undefined index: tmp_name in C:\quickstart\library\Zend\File\Transfer\Adapter\Abstract.php on line 589
Notice: Undefined index: name in C:\quickstart\library\Zend\Validate\File\Size.php on line 398
Notice: Undefined index: tmp_name in C:\quickstart\library\Zend\File\Transfer\Adapter\Abstract.php on line 589
Notice: Undefined index: name in C:\quickstart\library\Zend\Validate\File\Extension.php on line 228
Being a PHP and Zend Framework newbie, I wanted to put the blame on Zend but in the end I found the reason for the upload and validation errors after much googling.
The solution requires updating two properties in php.ini:
upload_max_filesize = 32M
post_max_size = 32M
With these changes you can now upload relatively bigger files!
Just make sure that your hosting provider supports your file upload size settings.

[ZF-5357] Error by Upload…
I got the same Zend File Upload errors.
Apparently, I was uploading a file bigger than the allowable limit set in php.ini. This was fixed by updating……
Use setMaxFileSize to limit the accepted size at the file element. Your browser will then automatically throw an error/not accept this file.
Ah yes, that would help if I wanted to limit the maximum file size.
But my original problem was I wanted to increase the allowed file size for file uploads.
I initially thought it was something I could set from within Zend without knowing about the defaults set in php.ini.
