getting this error:

Warning: copy(Uploadimages/): failed to open stream: Is a directory in /mounted-storage/home23b/sub003/sc21754-QIFR/www/mainscript/uploadphoto.php on line 7

and here is the code:

[sup]<? session_start();
require_once("include/config.php");
$new_width=100; //Image width Change if needed
$new_height=100;
$userId=$_SESSION['user_id'];

copy ($pingvin, "Uploadimages/$pingvin_new");

$add1="Uploadimages/$pingvin_new";
$thumbnailpath1="thumnailimages/$pingvin_new";
$query="insert into myspaceuserpicture (UserID,UseImagepath,Userthubnailpath,imagetype) values ('$userId','$add1','$thumbnailpath1','1')";

mysql_query($query) or handle_mysql_error($query,mysql_errno(),mysql_error);
$id = mysql_insert_id($cn);
$uploaddone="sucess";

if($uploaddone=="sucess")
{
header("location:step2.php");
}
else

{
header("location:step1.php?error=ix");
}

?>[/sup]

Now Uploadimages is a folder where i want the pic to get copied in any ideas ??????

Well the error means something is missing. What is the value of $pingvin_new?

johntp · October 29, 2006

hmmmm. there is no value for $pingvin_new what should i set as the value if it needs to be the picture that was uploaded

johntp · October 30, 2006

well i was wrong in the page beforeit it calls for it.

[sup]<? session_start();
require_once("include/config.php");
if(!isset($_SESSION['user_id'])){
header("location:login.php");
}
$lastlogin=$_SESSION['lastlogin'];
$userId=$_SESSION['user_id'];

Ok, so change your first bit of code that you included in your first post to this...

[code]
<?php

session_start();
require_once("include/config.php");
$new_width=100; //Image width Change if needed
$new_height=100;
$userId=$_SESSION['user_id'];

echo $pingvin; //Echo the value of the variable
exit(); //Exit the script so you can see the output

copy ($pingvin, "Uploadimages/$pingvin_new");

$add1="Uploadimages/$pingvin_new";
$thumbnailpath1="thumnailimages/$pingvin_new";
$query="insert into myspaceuserpicture (UserID,UseImagepath,Userthubnailpath,imagetype) values ('$userId','$add1','$thumbnailpath1','1')";

mysql_query($query) or handle_mysql_error($query,mysql_errno(),mysql_error);
$id = mysql_insert_id($cn);
$uploaddone="sucess";

if($uploaddone=="sucess")
{
header("location:step2.php");
}
else

{
header("location:step1.php?error=ix");
}

?>
[/code]

What we are trying to do is ascertain what is missing in the script. So in order to do so, you need to troubleshoot the execution of the code step-by-step.

johntp · October 30, 2006

well now after i hit upload i get this

/tmp/phpbjhWbA

gmwebs · October 30, 2006

Ok... So that looks like a temporary filename, which is good... Now try this...

[code]
<?php

session_start();
require_once("include/config.php");
$new_width=100; //Image width Change if needed
$new_height=100;
$userId=$_SESSION['user_id'];

echo $pingvin_new; //Echo the value of the variable - lets see if there is a filename to copy TO
exit(); //Exit the script so you can see the output

copy ($pingvin, "Uploadimages/$pingvin_new");

$add1="Uploadimages/$pingvin_new";
$thumbnailpath1="thumnailimages/$pingvin_new";
$query="insert into myspaceuserpicture (UserID,UseImagepath,Userthubnailpath,imagetype) values ('$userId','$add1','$thumbnailpath1','1')";

mysql_query($query) or handle_mysql_error($query,mysql_errno(),mysql_error);
$id = mysql_insert_id($cn);
$uploaddone="sucess";

if($uploaddone=="sucess")
{
header("location:step2.php");
}
else

{
header("location:step1.php?error=ix");
}

?>
[/code]

johntp · October 30, 2006

now it's just a blank page, but the pic isn't in the directories

gmwebs · October 30, 2006

Ok... So that means that the $pingvin_new variable is empty. So that proves that the error message is right :)

Obviously, you are supposed to assign a filename to that variable, which is not happening. Is that all the code in the uploadphoto.php file?

johntp · October 30, 2006

yep, that is all the code in uploadphoto.php and step1.php. there is uploadphoto.php and step1.php that you select the file then it calls for uploadphoto.php.

gmwebs · October 30, 2006

Ok, try to assign a variable manually then, just to see if it creates your file. You would need to manually assign the extension for now, but we can have a look at getting that done automatically later on.

[code]
<?php

session_start();
require_once("include/config.php");
$new_width=100; //Image width Change if needed
$new_height=100;
$userId=$_SESSION['user_id'];

$pingvin_new = "testfile.jpg"; //make the extension the same as you are uploading for now

copy ($pingvin, "Uploadimages/$pingvin_new");

$add1="Uploadimages/$pingvin_new";
$thumbnailpath1="thumnailimages/$pingvin_new";
$query="insert into myspaceuserpicture (UserID,UseImagepath,Userthubnailpath,imagetype) values ('$userId','$add1','$thumbnailpath1','1')";

mysql_query($query) or handle_mysql_error($query,mysql_errno(),mysql_error);
$id = mysql_insert_id($cn);
$uploaddone="sucess";

if($uploaddone=="sucess")
{
header("location:step2.php");
}
else

{
header("location:step1.php?error=ix");
}

?>

[/code]

If this doesn't work, then it is likely that your $pingvin variable is not the temporary file. You would then need to access the $_FILES array to get the temp file.

[code]
<?php

session_start();
require_once("include/config.php");
$new_width=100; //Image width Change if needed
$new_height=100;
$userId=$_SESSION['user_id'];

$pingvin_new = "testfile.jpg"; //make the extension the same as you are uploading for now

copy($photos_uploaded['pingvin']['tmp_name'], "Uploadimages/" . $pingvin_new);

$add1="Uploadimages/$pingvin_new";
$thumbnailpath1="thumnailimages/$pingvin_new";
$query="insert into myspaceuserpicture (UserID,UseImagepath,Userthubnailpath,imagetype) values ('$userId','$add1','$thumbnailpath1','1')";

mysql_query($query) or handle_mysql_error($query,mysql_errno(),mysql_error);
$id = mysql_insert_id($cn);
$uploaddone="sucess";

if($uploaddone=="sucess")
{
header("location:step2.php");
}
else

{
header("location:step1.php?error=ix");
}

?>
[/code]

}

}

worked. It made a file called testfile.jpg, which is a great progress.

gmwebs · October 31, 2006

Ok good, so did the actual file open up as an image after uploading too? This then means that $pingvin is being defined in one of the other scripts. Could you try to find where it is being defined, and then post the code for that script? Then we can look at automatically creating that filename and extension based on what the user uploads.

johntp · October 31, 2006

yea they opened as files, but they didn't resize to 100x100. I did a search for pingvin in all source code in the entire folder and nothing except uploadphoto and step1.

gmwebs · October 31, 2006

Wow... ok... So let me get this straight... You want a user to upload a photo, and then you want your script to resize it and copy it to the Uploaded files folder - all using just that code you supplied?

It is quite a bit more complex than that I'm afraid!

If you want to resize your image on the fly, you would need to make sure that your host has GD or ImageMagick support. You would then need to add in quite a bit more code into your script. I have a nice example of one I wrote a while back, but unfortunately I don't have access to it from where I am at the moment. Unless someone else can point you in the right direction from here, or maybe if you can look on google for some PHP image resize scripts, you would have to wait until I can get a chance to post that script of mine.

johntp · November 7, 2006

k i used a diff section of uploading to use as the main one. Everything uploads great and pics are resized, but im getting an error.

Error:
