Uploading A File From My Main Domain To A Sub-Domain

[sintax63]

Hello PHP Freaks -

 

I have come across a problem with a web app I'm writing and was hoping to get some assistance. I have a form which is used to upload a photo (see below). I have used it before on one site without any problems. This time however, I need to have the form / web page on "domain.com" and the file upload to a directory in "sub.domain.com".

 

I keep getting the following error:

 

Warning: move_uploaded_file(http://sub.domain.com/main/photos/1.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections. in /home/user/public_html/sandbox/photos.php on line 102

 

Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phpteSwWs' to 'http://sub.domain.com/main/photos/1.jpg' in /home/user/public_html/sandbox/photos.php on line 102

 

Line 102 contain the following:

 

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $target)) { 

 

And the entire PHP code for the upload script is as follows:

 

// ------------------------------------------------
// Checks To See If A Photo Is Being Uploaded...
// ------------------------------------------------

if(isset($_REQUEST['submit'])) {

$next = $id;

// ------------------------------------------------
// Separates The File Name From The Extension
// ------------------------------------------------

function findexts ($filename) { 
$filename = strtolower($filename) ; 
$exts = split("[/\\.]", $filename) ; 
$n = count($exts)-1; 
$exts = $exts[$n]; 
return $exts; }

// ------------------------------------------------
// Applies The Function To The File
// ------------------------------------------------

$ext = findexts ($_FILES['userfile']['name']) ;

// ------------------------------------------------
// Renames The File To Match The Entry ID
// ------------------------------------------------

$pic = $next.".";

// ------------------------------------------------
// Define The Photo Upload Directory
// ------------------------------------------------

$target = "http://sub.domain.com/main/photos/";

// ------------------------------------------------
// Creates The Directory/Name.Extenstion
// ------------------------------------------------

$target = $target . $pic.$ext;

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $target)) { 

header( "Location: photos.php" );

} else {

echo "Something Went Wrong... <br />"; 

}
}

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm coming up on my deadline.

 

Thanks!

I already told you that:

 

$ext = findexts ($_FILES['userfile']['name']) ;

// is the same as
$ext = pathinfo($_FILES['userfile']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION);

 

You don't need to waste more memory then required.

 

If you want to upload a file from

 

domain.com to sub.domain.com then place the upload script on sub.domain.com and let domain.com refer to it

 

<form action="http://sub.domain.com/upload.php">

 

Or if you need it at both domains perform the upload on domain.com and then pass (using curl) a task to sub.domain.com which tells him that he needs to download a file something like:

 

http://sub.domain.com/upload.php?uri=http://domain.com/uploads/file.jpg

Hello ignace -

 

You did and I must have missed it. Sorry about that...

 

While you were replying to my first post I went ahead and moved the upload portion of the script over to my subdomain, however I am getting the same error about "writable connections".

 

I must be missing something but I'll keep messing with it.

 

Thanks again!
