I am having trouble with uploading (.mp3) files that are about 3MB in size or bigger. The below code works great until I try to upload a large file. Any thoughts? 
use CGI;
sub doUpload {
my ($buffer);
$query = new CGI;

$filename = $query->param("file");
$filename =~ s/.*[\/\\](.*)/$1/;
$myupload = $query->upload("file");

if ($filename =~ /.mp3/) {
  open (UPLOADFILE, ">$dirpath/$filename");
    while (read($myupload, $buffer, 1024)) {
      print UPLOADFILE $buffer;
    }
  close (UPLOADFILE);
}

print "Location: $cgipath?action=success\nURI: $cgipath?action=success
+\n\n";
}

I have also tried it this way: 
if ($filename =~ /.mp3/) {
  open (UPLOADFILE, ">$dirpath/$filename");
    while ( <$myupload> ) {
      print UPLOADFILE;
    }
  close (UPLOADFILE);
}

Thanks.

I thought I got it working, but I didn't. It's not creating a file at all. I added this to it: 
$CGI::POST_MAX = 102400;

or 100MB. How do I check the return value of "OPEN"?
