Uploading media files trouble...

[sassenach]

Hi,

 

I am using a script to upload media files. Here it is:

$filename_audio = 'uploadintaudio';
   $tmpName_audio = $_FILES[$filename_audio]['tmp_name'];
   if(empty($_POST['intclip_which']))  {$_POST['intclip_which'] = 0;}	   
   if($_POST['intclip_which'] == 1){	//change image only				
   	echo 'MEDIA --> <br/>
   	name '.strtolower($_FILES[$filename_audio]['name']).'<br/>
   	isset? '.isset($_FILES[$filename_audio]).'<br/>	   	
   	which '.$_POST['intclip_which'].'<br/>
   	error '.$_FILES[$filename_audio]['error'].'<br/>
   	type '.ereg($media_types,strtolower($_FILES[$filename_audio]['type'])).'----
   	'.$_FILES[$filename_audio]['type'];	   
	   if (isset($_FILES[$filename_audio]) && ($_FILES[$filename_audio]['error'] != 4) && ereg($media_types,strtolower($_FILES[$filename_audio]['type']))) {     
	   		$intaudio = array_change_key_case($_FILES[$filename_audio],CASE_LOWER);			   		
	   	} else {
        $intaudio = FALSE;
        $ErrorMsg .= 'Either the file format is incorrect or you have not choosen a media file.<br />';			   				   		
     	} 
	 } else {$intaudio = TRUE;} 
	 $intaudio_name = strtolower($intaudio['name']); 	    
   $intaudio_type = strtolower($intaudio['type']); 	    
   $intaudio_size = strtolower($intaudio['size']); 	

 

Note:

$media_types = "(rmi|wav|wma|wmv|wm|wmvhd|wax|mpg|mid|midi|mpeg|m1v|mp2|mp3|mpa|mpe)\$";/*avi|asf|asx|*/

 

You can see i print (echo) the file name, error, type, etc. This is my result:

MEDIA -->

name butterfly.wmv

isset? 1

which 1

error 1

type ----

 

As you can see the file type is missing. And the error =1 which means the max-uploadsize is not enough. The file size im trying to upload is 2.5M and my max post and max upload size is set to 50M.

 

I am not sure where the problem is.

 

Any help is welcomed.

 

thanks

max post and max upload size is set to 50M.

Yes, but what are the actual settings that a phpinfo() statement shows and where exactly did you change the settings at?

 

If there is a syntax error in the setting or the method that you used to set it is not the one that php is using, the setting is not actually change to what you think it is.

im not sure what you mean.

u want me to show u the phpinfo()?

[PFMaBiSmAd]

Only the relevant part - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relevance_%28disambiguation%29

[sassenach]

PHP Version 5.2.9

 

post_max_size 50M

upload_max_filesize 50M

safe_mode Off

register_globals On

file_uploads On

memory_limit 32M

 

anything else?

[PFMaBiSmAd]

Are those the local values or the master values?

 

Also,

where exactly did you change the settings at?

 

You would not be getting that value for the ['error'] element unless the size of the file is larger than the upload_max_filesize setting that php is using. Either the size of the file is not what you think it is or the actual setting that php is using is not what you think it is.

[sassenach]

these are local and master. same values.

 

I am getting error value 1.

 

I tried a couple of files over 2M and it gave me this error. When i try a file that is under 2M it seems to work.

 

that is why i have no clue what to do now.

Was the file with the phpinfo() in the same folder where your upload script is at?

 

You may want to check with your web host because if they have not configured the server to allow you to change the php settings, they might not actually get changed to the values you set, despite what the phpinfo() shows.

there is one php.ini file in the main web root directory and the file is in another folder.

in this website cpanel, it has php config area. there the php file is selected as single file. meaning one file for the whole site. so i wont need to duplicate the php.ini file.

[sassenach]

this is the options i have in the php config in cpanel:

 

PHP5

All files with the extension .php will be handled by the PHP5 engine.

Current, most reliable and best performing version of PHP

 

PHP5 (Single php.ini)

Same as PHP5, but all subdirectories will use ~/public_html/php.ini

 

PHP5 (FastCGI)

All files with the extension .php will be handled by PHP5 FastCGI processes.

FastCGI for PHP makes all your PHP applications run through mod_fastcgi instead of mod_suphp. This eliminates the overhead of loading the PHP interpretor on every hit. Since it is always in memory ready for the next hit, the responses will be generated faster.

 

 

PHP5 (Single php.ini) is selected.
