$_FILES not working

[joequah1]

Hi,

 

My $_FILES is not working.

Its working when Im doing my project on the local host.

After I uploaded my project to the server, the $_FILES is not working.

 

Im trying to upload images.

the $_FILES['name'] couldn't read anything. its like no file there.

 

whats causes it? any other way to read from <input type='file'/> ? or way to solve this?

 

Thank You.

Can you do

echo '<pre>' . print_r($_FILES, true) . '</pre>';

and post back what it outputs? This must be called after submitting the form.

 

Also, are you using enctype="multipart/form-data" in your <form>?

Did you use enctype="multipart/form-data" in your <form> tag?

[joequah1]

got.

It works in the local but not at the server.

Are you exceeding the "post_max_size" setting in the php.ini? How big of a file are you trying to upload?

scootstah, if he has incorrect settings in php.ini, he would get FILES archive and get error code not equal to 0. I think something is wrong in his form, maybe any quote is missed or anything else.

That's why I ask TC - show code of you form.

This is true if upload_max_filesize is exceeded, but if post_max_size is exceeded then $_POST and $_FILES will be empty.

Could it because of the server settings?

[scootstah]

Could it because of the server settings?

 

Like I said, what is post_max_size set to in the php.ini? And how big are the files you are trying to upload?

i never set the post_max_size and the files im trying to upload is between 3kb to 1mb.

i tried to upload with 3kb and it don works.

 

and i tried to add in these

 

ini_set ("file_uploads","On");

    ini_set ("upload_max_filesize", "128M");

    ini_set("meemory_limit", "96M");

    ini_set("post_max_size", "64M");

 

 

it still wont work.

Does the uploads directory have the permissions to write files?

[joequah1]

Does the uploads directory have the permissions to write files?

 

i got the permission to write files.

 

And i Check the php info in the server php.ini

 

the post_max_size has no value.

so does this mean if post_max_size has no value we cant upload files?

[sw0o0sh]

post_max_size = 8M

 

that's what mine says, I'm going to say yes and assume you need something there

[joequah1]

post_max_size = 8M

 

that's what mine says, I'm going to say yes and assume you need something there

 

im trying to set

ini_set("post_max_size","64MB");

 

still no value.

 

does this mean i need to change from the server?

[joequah1]

i changed to 64M now.

still not working.

so whats the problems now?

[scootstah]

You marked this solved, so does that mean you got it to work?
