Importing website files to Bitnami Wordpress

Question

Hi,
I am currently trying to move my e-commerce website hosting to AWS LightSail. I have done the initial setup, and I am in the process of moving my website files from the current hosting to the LightSail. I am using the All-in-One-Wp Migration plug in to import. I import stop after some minutes. Initially I was getting "Server timeout" error message. I changed the LightSail instance plan to a higher plan. But the import stops at 54% mark although this time around, i do not get server timeout message.

Does any has any idea how I can resolve this problem and import all my website files as it is to my new Bitnami WordPress site?

Hello,

Here are some settings the plugin author suggests adjusting:

```
upload_max_filesize – set this to a value > than your backup
post_max_size – set this to a value > than your backup
memory_limit – set this to a value > than your backup
max_execution_time – set this to 0 (infinite)
```

Hello.

What is the file size of the uploaded file?  
It's possible that the problem is due to the PHP file upload size.  
Try changing "post_max_size" and "upload_max_filesize" in the php.ini file to larger numbers.  
```
/opt/bitnami/php/etc/php.ini
```

Hi Riku,
Thank you for replying to the help request. 
My file size is 10GB. I have increased the wp upload size to 15GB. Thats is the problem here.
