Validate large file in server side

    Hello! I have a simple code to upload a file to server.

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="es">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form action="upload3.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
        <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="2097152" />
        Upload File: <input name="file_upload" type="file" />
        <input type="submit" value="Enviar fichero" />
    </form>
</body>
</html>
    HTML:
    In PHP:
    <?php
define('APP_BASEDIR', dirname(__FILE__));
$ruta = APP_BASEDIR . "/cargas/";

$file_uploaded = $ruta. basename($_FILES['file_upload']['name']);

if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file_upload']['tmp_name'], $file_uploaded)) {
    echo "OK";
} else {
    echo "ERROR!";
}
?>
    PHP:
    If the file is small, there is no problem.
    But if the file is very large, it fails.
    Show this:
    And tell Notice: Undefined index... this because $_FILE are empty (see http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.post-max-size)
    I don't need to upload a large file. I just want to validate on the server side that a large file is not loaded (2Mb Max).
    Can someone help me?

    Its a variable in php.ini which is making the script fail. Increase its limit and script will continue as normal.

    ; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
    post_max_size = 8M


    Make this:
    post_max_size = 18M
    or
    post_max_size = 25M
    or so on... Whatever is needed...

    This one also needs to be increased.

    ; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
    upload_max_filesize = 2M
