[ZendTo] Re: Large uploads not working on 64-bit Centos VM

[Jules]

I've found the solution to this one. In the most recent PHP revision, 
they tweaked the layout of the code which caused the patching commands 
on http://zend.to/phpfix.php to break, so it left an int behind that it 
should have turned into a long.

If you're running your own server (and haven't just taken my VM 
distribution) then you need to rebuild the libphp5.so binary according 
to the instructions on zend.to/phpfix.php which I fixed some time ago 
when I first discovered the problem.

If my VM distribution is also wrong, I will get that rebuilt as soon as 
I can. Otherwise you can just follow the instructions on 
http://zend.to/phpfix.php yourself to rebuild the binary.

Note if you are running RedHat 6 or CentOS 6, you will need to follow 
the link on that page to the RedHat 6 version of the instructions. 
Unfortunately these are rather more long-winded due to RedHat failing to 
ship a load of the libraries that are required to rebuild their own 
binaries :-(

Can you confirm the problem *does* exist on my own VM distribution for 
CentOS 5?

Jules.
