I have increased these things in php.ini
upload\_max\_filesize = 20480M
post\_max\_size = 204800M
upload\_max\_size = 20480M
Here are the errors i am getting.

Some previous solutions for this:

> DevKinsta has a default limitation on 128MB file upload. In order to get that increased you will need to access shell. It can be done by running docker exec -it devkinsta\_fpm bash This will bring you to the terminal of the application server. Depending on version of PHP you are using, file is located in /etc/php/7.4/fpm/conf.d/tuning.ini This is for version 7.4.

You can maybe also try compressing the .sql file with WinZIP or make a .tar.gz or .gz file (GZIP)
If those solutions don’t work, let us know!
