I'm trying to increase the upload_max_filesize etc in order to import bigger files with PHPMyadmin.
I have changed the php.ini and restart Apache. I can see the changes on the PHPMyadmin import screen (mentioned there Max: 300MiB) but when i try to import a 50 M file i'm getting the alert:
No data was received to import. Either no file name was submitted, or the file size exceeded the maximum size permitted by your PHP configuration. See FAQ 1.16.
Any idea how it can be: In 1 hand it seems the changes took affect but in the other hand it doesn't work…
Thank you very much.

The solution copy from link
If you have your own Ubuntu server running you may encounter the maximal file size upload limit in php scripts which is set to 2Mb as default. In order to change that we first have a look what the size actually is. In /var/www (standard www directory) create a file called info.php with the following content:
Then browse to this file via localhost/info.php (replace localhost with the servername if necessary) and look for the line
which will show you the actual maximum file size. In order to change that open a ssh connection to your server and edit the file /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini with
search for “upload_max_filesize” with Ctrl-W and change “2M” to “20M”. Save the file with Ctrl-O and exit with Ctrl-X. Restart the apache server with
and visit again localhost/info.php to check if the maximum file size was changed.
