I can upload all kinds of documents, images, excel sheets etc. But not this
particular file. I cannot see what PHP is doing, since the upload script is
never called before the error occurs.

No, I have checked this. I am able to upload other files without problems.

That is what I think to. But why does it complain on this one file, while
all other files is uploaded without any problems at all? I have tried 20
different files (JPEG, MS Words, Excel, other PDF files) with success.

Since I am able to upload 20 other files, the code IS working.
* I have checked the php.ini files, and it seems to be OK.
* The upload directory is writeable since I can upload other files.
* print_r ($_FILES) will not work, since the action script is never called
when the error occurs.
