Laravel file failed to upload due to size

I am using Laravel as an API when I try to upload a file bigger than 2Mb I get error file failed to upload. I saw that it’s related to php.ini file, I tried updating post_max_size and restart apache, but it didn’t work. I don’t know how to solve this error any help please.

    Basically there are two php.ini files /etc/php/7.4/apache2/php.ini that I was making changes to. But Laravel was using /etc/php/7.4/cli/php.ini and I had to dd(php_ini_loaded_file()); which gives the path to the loaded php.ini file. After making changes to that file and restarting apache2 server the problem was solved.

    To increaes file upload size in PHP, you need to modify the upload_max_filesize and post_max_size values in your php.ini file.

    upload_max_filesize = 10M

post_max_size = 10M

    You can also do it via .htaccess file.

    Use echo phpinfo(); to check you variable values.

    Don’t forget to restart your apache service after changes.
