PHP Warns of POST content length exceed limit

Question

I got a PHP warning which says:

PHP Warning: POST Content-Length of 2290848 bytes exceeds the limit of 2097152 bytes in Unknown on line 0,

The following are my configuration:

In /etc/php.ini

post_max_size = 2.5M
upload_max_filesize = 500K
max_file_uploads = 5

In /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

LimitRequestBody 3000000

From the above, my post max size is supposed to be 2.5M. Why is this warning triggered at a lower limit of 2M (2097152 bytes)?

@AmazingDreams, yes. There is only one php.ini in /etc folder — Question Overflow, Mar 01 '13 at 09:37
Just because it is the only config file doesn't mean it's actually being loaded. You can confirm the actual ini value using `ini_get()` http://php.net/manual/en/function.ini-get.php — leftclickben, Mar 01 '13 at 09:40
@AmazingDreams, phpinfo() shows it is 2.5M for both local and master value. — Question Overflow, Mar 01 '13 at 09:44

@MarkBaker, that value has not been unchanged for a long while. — Question Overflow, Mar 01 '13 at 09:46

post_max_size is an integer, 2.5 is not.
