Hi, I was looking in installing http://www.speedtest.net/mini.php on my server so clients can test the speed of my server before ordering and to troubleshoot some speed issues (trying to avoid some "hey your site is too slow on the other side of the world)

Well it does work, the download part works great, yet the upload part just shows 16K. I post here since I do see it's a problem in my directadmin server (works fine on another box without directadmin) So I wonder if anybody has problems too with this as to try to figure out what options are wrongly set (using php version)

directadmin server: http://www.jocoque.net/speed/
non directadmin server: http://aldebaran.dci.uia.mx/speed/

Thanks.

I believe this script is intended to test your Internet connection speed, rather than the speed of your server. However, I did download and install the script and I'm not having the same issue as you are. Both my uploads and downloads work fine. My test came back 3492 kbps download and 758 kbps upload. You can try mine at http://speedtest.landeserve.com to see if it works for you. Thanks.
 
Thanks Jeremy, seems like it's a PHP problem, limiting the size of the uploads. I wonder if there's a place in directadmin to download the "original" "default" php.ini as to test if the problem is there.

Plus you are right the idea is to test server speed towards the user (for example somebody in china might have horrible speed to my server because of routing)

If you think its due to the upload file size limit use
In your .htaccess file use

php_value upload_max_filesize 100M
for increasing size to 100 mb

If you want to edit php.ini
search for
upload_max_filesize = 2M
and replace the 2M with 100M
 
Tried the .htaccess alternative with no success. I do have big numbers in post/upload size of php as a client uses them. Still have the 7k only upload problem. Any idea on where to get a "vanilla" copy of php.ini?

Thanks
 
@jlandes:

When I try your link I just get a list of files to download.

@jca:

Have you deleted the test? I don't find it on your links.

No problem :). It looks as if this thread was updated by a spammer (whom I've deleted) but not before it garnered a response. And I've been thinking of setting it up, so the thread caught my interest.
