--------------------------------------------------------------------
Just to document, through experimentation I've determined that
upload_max_filesize is applied per file instead of to all of the files uploaded
in a POST. For example, if upload_max_filesize is 10MB, then the user can
upload 4 5MB files (total size is 20MB > 10MB), but the user can't upload a
single 12MB file.
Also the file upload error codes are documented here:
http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.errors.php. Right now the error
message displayed to the user just includes the error code, which isn't super
friendly for the user, but at least if the user communicates the error code to
an administrator they can figure out what the problem was. I'm also hoping
with the client side detection and other changes I'm making that a user would
only very rarely upload a file that is too large.

> This is mostly a PHP problem. File upload limits are specified in the
> php.ini file (typically, /etc/php.ini). The parameters upload_max_filesize
> and post_max_size need to be modified to increase the size.
> If post_max_size is exceeded, the operation will fail silently: PHP doesn't
> complain, and PGA will not call the airavata clients. If upload_max_filesize
> is exceeded but not the post size limit, you will get errors. It is
> advisable to change both (as documented in the PGA's README.md file) and to
> keep both the same value.
