MySQL is telling you its limit is lower than what you're trying to upload. You'll either need to set the max_allowed_packet to something higher than it currently is or switch to the file storage method for attachments.

I have this in my ini-file

 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; File Uploads ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On

; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not
; specified).
;upload_tmp_dir =

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 20M

not this

max_allowed_packet

what it is this "20M" ? it will be 20mb ?


I want that it gives uploads of the 5 mb minimum, what I must modify in this code?


thank you..

That is your php.ini not your my.cnf.

[chicote]

where folder of the ftp is this file (my.cnf.)?

I spoke with host they had said that it had to modify the php5.ini file, and I make download of this file and I found this code.

I do not know where to find the file my.cnf

thanks

You most likely need to have root access to the server, if you do not you're host will have to make this change.
