How to get the response from server?

Thanks for your job !
I can not upload files to 2 MB superiors when my server is parametrer to 6MB. Did you have a solution?

can you sent me php file web service ?

handle response by following code ->

               req = fileUploader.uploadFile(request: request)
                    .progress { [weak self] bytesWritten, totalBytesWritten, totalBytesExpectedToWrite in
                           //  To update your ui, dispatch to the main queue.
                           dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
                           print("Total bytes written on main queue: \(totalBytesWritten)....\(totalBytesExpectedToWrite)")
                         }
                     }
                    .responseJSON { [weak self] response in
                     debugPrint(response)
                    if response.result.isSuccess {
                    self?.serverRequestResult(ServerResult.Success(response.data))
                    }
                    else{
                        self?.serverRequestResult(ServerResult.Failure(response.result.error))
                    }

            }
