Do you get any kind of error? To be honest, I never tested with files larger than 10MB.
If you go for such large files you will most probably have problems:
* if you are using DB as a storage engine (by default activeCollab 0.7 does) you will have a huge query
* most browsers choke with such an upload
* you will need to configure your server to let you submit such a big POST requests

No, no error is given. The file download appears to complete but when you check it the file size is less than the original and of course will not unzip/open. The amount of data transfered (reported as file size) varies from person to person so I would guess it is a timeout issue and not a max file size issue. I'm only guessing, though.
I have the following values set in php.ini:
max_execution_time = 240
max_input_time = 240
memory limit = 40M
post_max_size = 50M
upload_max_filesize = 35M
mysql.trace_timeout = 60
Is there anything else I need to do to allow larger transfers? These pdfs are so large because they contain a lot of pages of drawings. Sometimes more than 70 pages of 24"x36" architectural drawings in a single pdf. I could break them up into individual pages, but it is too tediuos to upload 70 pdf files.

Yes, yes... Of course. You shouldn't fight the system, application should be there to help not to give you a headache. You can upload them, but they break when you try to download them if I undersood correctly?

I could upload them, but the server is local to me (on my lan). I haven't tried to upload off-site, only downloading which didn't work.

Try setting max_execution_time to a higer value (600 for instance - that is 10 minutes) and see if download finishes. If it does than the problem really is execution time... Its fixable. Sorry, I don't have time to test this days so if you could do that it would be great!
Thanks! ;)

I tried downloading 3 files on my Documents page from home tonight. The curious thing is that even though the 3 files varied in file size the download stopped on each one at 5.4MB. The actual number of bytes varied slightly.
This was after changing max_execution_time to 600, but the download stopped way before 10 minutes. It's got to be something else that causes it to stop.
I also asked someone else to download from their office and they only got 4.26MB downloaded before it stopped.

Hi,
I've just had a discussion with a friend and he told me that problem may be cause by memory-limit php.ini directive.
