I finally managed to get this NAS working properly and installed WordPress via the web server. Along the way I kept running into problems, but I managed to solve them one by one, until I reached the point of importing the database.
My database is 80 MB, and that’s where I’m now hitting a wall. On a normal PC, I know I can increase the maximum upload size by editing the PHP configuration file in the Apache folder, but on this NAS I have no idea how to change this, since I can’t find the Apache directory.
Can anyone help me with this step?
Thanks in advance!
Import file size limit in PHPMyAdmin/mariadb
Re: Import file size limit in PHPMyAdmin/mariadb
The configuration file for MariaDB is usually `my.cnf` or `my.ini`. Find the `tmpdir` configuration option and set it to the path of the new directory.
[mysqld]
tmpdir = /path/to/new/tmpdir
After modifying the configuration file, you need to restart the MariaDB service for the changes to take effect.

Re: Import file size limit in PHPMyAdmin/mariadb
I successfully managed to change the database size, but now I am running into another issue, this time related to PHP8.0.
My current website is running on the latest version of WordPress (6.9) with PHP 8.3 on Hostinger. I am trying to migrate or run the same setup on my TerraMaster NAS.
From the TerraMaster Community App Center, I installed the PHP app Apache83. I am now trying to figure out how to replace the current PHP 8 setup with PHP 8.3. However, in the web server Virtual Host settings, I only see Default (PHP 8.0) available, and there is no option to select PHP 8.3.
This is my first real NAS, so I am still learning how TerraMaster handles PHP and web server configurations. I hope the community will be patient with me as I continue learning step by step.
If someone could help me with this or point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it.
*I have read that upgrading PHP 8.0 to the latest PHP version is not a straightforward process. TerraMaster will need to develop a solution that allows this to be done through a user-friendly interface, especially for users without a technical background. Updates like these should be rolled out quickly, rather than waiting for a completely new firmware release, such as TOS 7, for example, by pushing updates in the future.
In this way, you attract more customers to the NAS and build a stronger community.

We have not yet released an application for PHP 8.3. The community provides PHP 8.1: viewtopic.php?t=2925&start=10
Thank you for your suggestion; we will continue to optimize.

Re: Import file size limit in PHPMyAdmin/mariadb
Yesterday I was figuring out how to bypass all of this and work with Docker container I have to say that it works perfectly. PHP 8.5 and WordPress 6.9 run smoothly; everything is fast and you have full control. The only thing that was a bit challenging for me was working with SSH. But ChatGPT guided me through every step.
The next step is to figure out how I can take advantage of my NVMe and 64gb RAMs and speed wordpress up using caching. This is purely for experimental purposes.

Re: Import file size limit in PHPMyAdmin/mariadb
Nice work getting it running with Docker-that’s definitely a solid approach and gives you much more flexibility 
For speeding things up with your NVMe and 64GB RAM, you might want to look into enabling object caching (like Redis) and a page cache plugin on WordPress. Also, tuning PHP-FPM settings and enabling OPcache can give a noticeable performance boost.
Since you’re already using Docker, it should be fairly straightforward to spin up a Redis container and connect it. Curious to see what results you get—keep us posted!
