Uncaught SoapFault exception: HTTP Request Entity Too Large

Question

I have a Wordpress site with WooCommerce and a FedEx plugin, everything works fine except for large orders where i get the error below:

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [HTTP] Request Entity Too
Large in /html/wp-content/plugins/synmedia-woocommerce-shipping-
fedex/classes/class-syn-shipping-fedex.php:588 
Stack trace: #0

/html/wp-conten in /html/wp-content/plugins/synmedia-woocommerce-
shipping-fedex/classes/class-syn-shipping-fedex.php on line 588

I have changed the following values in my PHP.ini file:

• max_file_uploads = 50
• memory_limit = 256M
• upload_max_filesize = 256M
• post_max_size = 256M
• max_execution_time = 300

And still not working, i would appreciate some more ideas as i can't figure out why is erroring.

Answer 1

Check phpinfo to see what limits are set server-side. If you're using a shared provider it's highly likely that they are limiting the size of the POST. I've noticed woo plugins also have issue with low memory limits.
