changes to upload max filesize in linux mint php.ini will not take effect

I have been trying for two days to increase the max filesize for file uploads via php to 10M from the default 2M. I change the php.ini file that is referenced by phpinfo to no avail.

I saw a few articles stating that there is a syntax error around line 109 of the php.ini file, but I don’t know what the syntax error is or how to correct it. users stated that because the upload_max_filesize is AFTER this error in the config file it is being ignored. Please help.
