Problem with moving files.

[kernelgpf]

My problem is that the code is displaying that the file was successfully uploaded to the directory "/home/www/ffpb2.100webspace.net/pendingimages/$filenamehere", but it really isn't being uploaded. Could somebody point out my problem?

[code]
$afile=$_FILES['file']['name'];
if(!empty($afile)){
//Change this to the directory you would like to upload files to.
//Change these to allowed files types users can upload
$allowedfile[] = "image/gif"; //.gif
$allowedfile[] = "image/pjpeg"; //.jpeg
$allowedfile[] = "image/jpg";  //.jpg
$allowedfile[] = "image/png";  //.png
$allowedfile[] = "image/psd";  //.psd
//Check to see if file exists | If it does, then we stop the process, although if it doesnt then we continue
$fileplace="$v/pendingimages/$afile";
$directory="$v/pendingimages/";
$gfileplace="$v/gallery/$afile";

if(file_exists($gfileplace) == "1") {
$is_uploaded = "failed";
echo 'Sorry! This file already exists. ';
exit(); //If $is_upload = failed, then we stop the uploading process
}
if(!in_array($_FILES["file"]["type"],$allowedfile)) {
$is_uploaded = "failed";
echo 'Sorry! Wrong file type, "'.$_FILES["file"]["type"].'" is not allowed. ';
exit(); //If $is_upload = failed, then we stop the uploading process
}
//Now, if $is_uploaded does NOT = failed, we remove invalid characters in the filename, and replace all spaces with underscores
    if($is_uploaded != "failed") {
        $replace = array("$","%","#","@","!","&","^","*","(",")","-"," ");
        $new = str_replace($replace,"",$_FILES["file"]["name"]);

            //Now we upload the file and check for errors
$variable=$_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"];
            if(move_uploaded_file($variable, $fileplace)){
print "$fileplace";
$imagetitle=$_POST['imagetitle'];
mysql_query("insert into gallerymaybes(filename,imagetitle,submittedby)values('$afile','$imagetitle','$sid')")or die(mysql_error());
print "Image successfully sent in, and if approved, will be added to the gallery. You will earn a gallery point and receive a message for any images accepted.";
                    }
                        else {
        echo 'Error: Uknown Error';
        exit();
        }

[/code]

$v is the server root, for further clarification.

$docroot = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
When you are ready to actual send the file
put
$docroot . "path"
which in your case looks like
$docroot . "pendingimages"

also... i had this once... if the file permissions on the folder your moving it too arnt set properly, it wont move... even though php may say it did...
