Description

I have tired to impaort image files of Maps which are 8MB, they are improted but I am not able to access the page to edit or view them. I will get dead white page only. And messages as such

Languages_lg's preview derivative image was missing. The derivatives will be rebuilt to regenerate it.

I have allowed for Admin to upload file of sizes up to 12 MB. Is there any limitation for Image.Module to handle files?

It appears that image.module fails to create Thumbnail and Preview of image files larger than 4MB. How can I fix this problem please?

What's your PHP memory_limit set to? Image manipulation is done completely in memory, scaling 8MB JPEGs (or other compressed image formats) would require excessive amounts of memory.

I set my PHP memory to 40MB right from the start.

Well, try to increase it to 64 or even 128 MB and see if that helps.
