I'd like to add these PHP settings to my Elastic Beanstalk environment:

upload_max_filesize = 64M post_max_size = 64M

These options cannot be set with option_settings in .ebextensions:

Namespace | Extend ---------------------------------------------|------- aws:elasticbeanstalk:application:environment | Yes aws:elasticbeanstalk:container:php:phpini | No

How can I add custom settings to php.ini in an Elastic Beanstalk container?

The cleanest way I found is to use a .ebextensions config file in my project archive:

Sample .ebextensions/project.config file:

files: "/etc/php.d/project.ini" : mode: "000644" owner: root group: root content: | upload_max_filesize = 64M post_max_size = 64M

When the application version is deployed, this will write a custom config file in the php.d directory, that will override any php.ini setting.

  • So does that mean /etc/php.d/project.ini file is automatically created when the new app version is deployed? Commented Sep 1, 2017 at 0:42

  • Is it also applicable in Ubuntu. I'm having the same issue. Commented May 25, 2018 at 8:28
  • I tried this and it caused my Laravel app to crash. Any thoughts as to what might have gone wrong? Commented Jun 19, 2018 at 1:53

    Never mind, it did work, thanks! My issue was unrelated - for some reason eb deploy isn't working but uploading a zip is, which is a whole other ball of wax. Once I manually deployed it it worked like a charm! Commented Jun 19, 2018 at 2:01
