Issue : I cannot do any actions (eg. Move, Delete…etc) on files larger than 10MB. Background task notification will be shown but nothing happened. (eg. Delete file larger than 10MB, background task running, after 1 day, still running) FYI : - I have no problem with files under 10MB. - I am using apc cache and discovered Cache Health \> 60% (I think this is bad) - Based on Diagnostics : Client : Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10\_12\_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/64.0.3282.186 Safari/537.36 Crypto Extension Detected : OpenSSL Command Line Available : No : DOM Enabled : Yes Exif Enabled : Yes GD Enabled : Yes Upload Max Size : 1G Memory Limit : 256M Max execution time : 300 Safe Mode : 0 Safe Mode GID : 0 Xml parser enabled : 1 Server OS : Linux Session Save Path : /opt/alt/php70/var/lib/php/session Session Save Path Writeable : Yes PHP Version : 7.0.27 Locale : C Directory Separator : / PHP Opcode Cache extension loaded : Yes PHP INTL extension loaded : Yes PHP Output Buffer disabled : Yes PHP File Uploads enabled : Yes Magic quotes disabled : Yes Upload Tmp Dir Writeable : Yes PHP Upload Max Size : 1073741824 PHP Post Max Size : 134217728 Users enabled : Yes Guest enabled : No Writeable Folders : [ **cache** :true, **data** :true] Zlib Enabled : Yes ---

Hi, sorry for the late response i believe that for background tasks you need the command line and as i can see in your config it’s disabled could you try to enable it and try again with large files. ---

Is it enabled here within Application Core? ![cli](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex032/uploads/pydio/original/1X/008a98c246153d0ea65ba89b701bb4186b17a31e.png) ---

I’m under a shared hosting, and has no accessibility to the root. However, after asking the help from my hosting server. They told me that PHP CLI has already been enabled for PHP70 which I am using. ---

Hi, sometimes you need add the full path for php [![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex032/uploads/pydio/original/1X/008a98c246153d0ea65ba89b701bb4186b17a31e.png) ](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex032/uploads/pydio/original/1X/008a98c246153d0ea65ba89b701bb4186b17a31e.png) as seen in your screen the command that calls php should `php` but it could be different on your setup if you’re on a linux server use `which php`. ---

Sorry for the late reply. It seems the directory was the problem. After placing the correct directory, diagnostics show Command-Line was enabled. Background task now works properly. Thank You very much for your help and patience! ---
