I want to allow uploading large files (50 mb+) through a web form with rails on a dreamhost shared server. With a normal http post (of course), it doesn''t work. So I tried an FTP upload, but even then, it doesn''t work. Should working with threads or some kind of progress indicator (and keeping querying the server) be of any help? Any input is welcome.

On my server (apache2, mod_proxy, mongrel) we regularly upload 50mb+ files... takes awhile, but it works, and I''m not doing anything special... perhaps dreamhost has put some limit in there that can be removed?> > So I tried an FTP upload, but even then, it doesn''t work. > > Should working with threads or some kind of progress indicator (and > keeping querying the server) be of any help? > > > > Any input is welcome. > > > > Geoff > > > > This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential and > privileged information.
