cURL and $_FILES working on Windows but not Linux...

[rayman0487]

Hey all. I have an issue that I cannot figure out today and it's driving me crazy. I have an API and a front-end application running on my Windows PC and my LAMP on AWS and I'm trying to upload a file from the front end to the API for the API to handle saving the file. On my window's machine it works fine, but on AWS it is not working, it is "changing" my array structure. For example see the simple debug output below:

 

WINDOWS:

Sending:
Array
(   [request] => UploadFile
    [CustomerID] => 1
    [Category] => 1
    [0] => @D:\Programs\xampp\CSTemp\1\1\home.txt
)

API STARTING...
1 files submitted
File Array: 
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [name] => home.txt
            [type] => application/octet-stream
            [tmp_name] => D:\Programs\xampp\tmp\phpC4B2.tmp
            [error] => 0
            [size] => 0
        )
)

LINUX

Sending:
Array
(   [request] => UploadFile
    [CustomerID] => 1
    [Category] => 1
    [0] => @/var/www/tmp/1/1/home.txt
)

API STARTING...
1 files submitted
File Array: 
Array
(
    [Category] => Array
        (
            [name] => home.txt
            [type] => application/octet-stream
            [tmp_name] => /tmp/php1DBdoV
            [error] => 0
            [size] => 0
        )
)

As you can see, Linux is storing the file in $_FILES['Category'] and not just $_FILES which Windows is doing. I know the source code is exactly the same because I'm working from a SVN repository that automatically checks out the source code on AWS when I commit from my computer.

 

Does anyone have any insight into this? I can provide additional code if needed, but the code appears to be working other than this issues..

 

Thanks for you help.

Anybody?? Much appreciated.

Can you post just the form?

As in, not include $_FILES? If so, yes that works just fine. That is why I'm stumped why it's having this result.

No, as in copy/paste it here.
