I have written this nice little script that allows me to be able to upload a file to a server but I am getting an error.  Here is the error:

 

Notice: Undefined index: name1 in /home/content/d/l/a/dlanden/html/beer/do_upload.php on line 6

 

Warning: copy(/html/beer/uploads/) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/d/l/a/dlanden/html/beer/do_upload.php on line 6

Couldn't copy the file.

 

Here is my code:

 

<?

 

error_reporting(E_ALL);

if ($_FILES['img1'] != "") {

 

copy($_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'], "/html/beer/uploads/".$_FILES['img1']['name1'])         

or die("Couldn't copy the file.");

 

} else {

 

    die("No input file specified");

 

}

 

?>

<HTML>

<HEAD>

<TILE>Successful File Upload</TITLE>

</HEAD>

<BODY>

<H1>Success!</H1>

 

<P>You sent: <? echo $_FILES['img1']['name']; ?>,

a <? echo $_FILES['img1']['size']; ?> byte file with

a mime type of <? echo $_FILES['img1']['type']; ?>.</P>

 

</BODY>

</HTML>

 

I am a newbie and any advice on this would be much appreciated!

Okay I changed the copy to move_uploaded_file and changed name1 to name but got the following error:

 

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/html/beer/uploads/4_cats_101.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/d/l/a/dlanden/html/beer/do_upload.php on line 6

 

Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phpqPEPat' to '/html/beer/uploads/4_cats_101.jpg' in /home/content/d/l/a/dlanden/html/beer/do_upload.php on line 6

Couldn't copy the file.

 

Here is my updated code:

<?

 

error_reporting(E_ALL);

if ($_FILES['img1'] != "") {

 

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'], "/html/beer/uploads/".$_FILES['img1']['name'])         

or die("Couldn't copy the file.");

 

} else {

 

Any ideas?

 

 

you have write permissions on that folder?

 

try this:

 

<?php
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'], $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . 'html/beer/uploads/' . $_FILES['img1']['name']);
?>

 

EDIT: adjust the path/to/file as necessary to make sure it's correct.  $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] brings you up to your public directory, in your case that's /html/ maybe?

 

if that's the case, this might work:

 

<?php
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'], $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . 'beer/uploads/' . $_FILES['img1']['name']);
?>

 

you can always check this value and tons of others by creating a phpinfo file:

 

phpinfo.php

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Does the folder /html/beer/uploads/ exist and does the web server have write permissions to it? Do you not, instead, want to be saving the file to the /home/content/d/l/a/dlanden/html/beer/uploads/ folder?

 

Try

 

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'], dirname(__FILE__).'/uploads/'.$_FILES['img1']['name'])

 

Edit: or what mrMarcus said.

Okay it works!!!  Thank you very much for your help.  Here is the code that I ended up using:

 

<?

 

error_reporting(E_ALL);

if ($_FILES['img1'] != "") {

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'], dirname(__FILE__).'/uploads/'.$_FILES['img1']['name'])     

or die("Couldn't copy the file.");

 

}
