Setting PHP upload_max_filesize in Mountain Lion I have edited /etc/php.ini and have inserted the following line of code to set the subject variable:

 upload_max_filesize = 20M


However, within a Joomla website on this host, the PHP Information screen says that this variable is set to only 2M.  I have restarted Apache, then I restarted the machine, etc.  Nothing seems to allow me to change this var.  Installing some Joomla extensions requires this limit to be higher.  Any ideas out there?
Have you modified the post_max_size too ?


post_max_size = 20M
upload_max_filesize = 20M
