Increase php limits

[810]

The basic php settings are set for max upload 2mb. In these days you need to increase this to 10mb.

We should add a custom php.ini file

Just for reference, when I first built these images they were heavily based on https://github.com/docker-library/wordpress so there's a lot that isn't necessarily optimal. And I don't have a working Docker installation at the moment so it's harder for me to test changes right now.

That said though, improvements are most definitely welcome.

For my deployments, in the docker-compose.yml file I include this to allow for my own settings:

 joomla-nginx:
    image: nginx:alpine
    volumes:
      - "./nginx/conf.d:/etc/nginx/conf.d"

and...

  joomla-php-fpm:
    image: joomla:php8.0-fpm-alpine
    volumes:
      - "./php-fpm/conf.d/joomlaphpoverides.ini:/usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/joomlaphpoverides.ini"

Inside the files I setup the overrides I wish to use:

/nginx/conf.d/settings.conf

client_max_body_size  160m;

/php-fpm/conf.d/joomlaphpoverides.ini

memory_limit = 160M
post_max_size = 160M
upload_max_filesize = 160M
upload_tmp_dir = "/var/www/html/tmp"
log_errors = On
error_log = /var/log/nginx/error.log

Restart your containers when making changes and you should get the limit issue resolved.

NOTE: If you run this behind a reverse proxy, you may need to increase the limits on it as well.

Hope that helps.

are there news to this topic? is there no way maybe in environment section of the compose yml? or something like that? maybe a linked volume to edit php.ini to get those settings running

thanks

I think we can look at this, and increase the defaults... just waiting for J4.2.2 and then we can make the needed changes.

Hello!?

How to deploy like you mention with nginx and php? in portainer Currently i have this:

======================================================= version: '3.1'

services: joomla: image: joomla restart: always links:

• joomladb:mysql ports:

• 8080:80 environment: JOOMLA_DB_HOST: joomladb JOOMLA_DB_PASSWORD: example

  joomladb: image: yobasystems/alpine-mariadb:latest restart: unless-stopped environment: MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: example

(but this gives error in Joomla Inforamtion: Warnings : The PHP temporary folder is not set. WarningSmall PHP maximum POST size. WarningMaximum PHP file upload size is too small.)

you can easy override PHP limits, by mounting a php.ini file. Here is a docker compose (snippet) example:

  joomla_test:
    image: joomla:4.2
    container_name: joomla_test
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - APACHE_RUN_USER=#1000
      - APACHE_RUN_GROUP=#1000
      - JOOMLA_DB_HOST=mariadb_test:3306
      - JOOMLA_DB_NAME=${VDM_TEST_DB}
      - JOOMLA_DB_USER=${VDM_TEST_DB_USER}
      - JOOMLA_DB_PASSWORD=${VDM_TEST_DB_PASS}
    depends_on:
      - mariadb_test
    volumes:
      - "${VDM_PROJECT_PATH}/test/joomla:/var/www/html"
      - "${VDM_PROJECT_PATH}/test/php.ini:/var/www/html/php.ini"
#      - "${VDM_PROJECT_PATH}/test/docker-entrypoint.sh:/entrypoint.sh" # to override the entry point
    networks:
      - traefik
    labels:
      # joomla
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.joomla_test.rule=Host(`test.joomla.local`)"

Doing this should allow enough customization options. Let me know if you have any further questions.
