Limit file upload size
I searched the docs and found max rule:
$validation = Validator::make(Input::all(),[
'name' => 'required',
'dob' => 'required',
'group' => 'required',
'active' => 'required',
'photo' => 'max:2000000|mimes:jpeg,jpg,png,bmp'
]);
The code says that it should limit a file to a maximum of 2000000 bytes = 2mb and the mimes being jpg,png and bmp. However only the mimes one work, I could upload a 5mb files without problem, what I'm missing? or did I misunderstood the MAX rule?
Ty!

It worked, I feel so ashamed of myself :/, However, there is no default error message?

Why would there be an error message? it probably assumes you want to keep a higher limit. If you are talking about default validation error message then it does have a default error message. You can check all default validation error messages in app/lang/en/validation.php

Depends if you're showing the error message anywhere. There will be a default for if the file is over the size limit.
"max" => array(
"numeric" => "The :attribute may not be greater than :max.",
"file" => "The :attribute may not be greater than :max kilobytes.",
"string" => "The :attribute may not be greater than :max characters.",
"array" => "The :attribute may not have more than :max items.",
),
You could probably use the "image" validation rule as well?
