function Copy Warning

[leequalls]

Warning: copy() [function.copy]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File() is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/party:/usr/lib/php:/usr/php4/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/php4/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/party/public_html/en/djpanel/admin/createprofile.php on line 51

 

I received the above warning when uploading a picture that was 2.98 MB I then tried to upload a picture size 51.47 KB and it went through no problem. How do I fix this warning?

The upload of the larger size file is probably failing due to upload size restrictions on your server, but your code has no error checking logic in it to prevent the copy() statement from being executed when there is no actual valid source or destination file, so you get an error out of the copy() statement. But that's just a guess since you did not post any code.

this is the code

 

$uploaded = $HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name'][0]; 
$path1= "/home/party/public_html/en/images/profile/$uploaded";

if($uploaded != NULL) { 
   if(copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['tmp_name'][0], $path1)) {
        $profile = "good"; 
        $success = $success . "The profile file $uploaded has been uploaded<p>"; 
    }
              else { $error = $error . "<h1>Sorry, there was a problem uploading profile image.</h1><p>"; }
}

You should actually be checking the ['error'] element and only processing the file if the error value is 0. Uploads that fail with an error that would cause the ['name'] element to be empty, set it to an empty string, not a NULL value.

 

$HTTP_POST_FILES was depreciated long ago in php4.1, turned off by default in php5, and completely removed in php6. Use $_FILES instead.

I have made those changes and I am still getting the warning message
