Upload files---Need Help

[b_kitty]

I have a script that allows file upload.

It seems like it works when i use it in my local webserver but when the scripts are transfered in a different web server, it does no long work.

I think this my be a path problem, maybe something wrong with my $archive_dir value!

 

Is there any rule on this value?????

 

Or maybe there is something wrong with the webserver itself?! :-\

 

I really Hope someone could Help..!!

Check the permissions of the folder you are saving the file to. Make sure that it is writeable. Also check the max upload size. You maybe exceeding your limit.

i checked the permission...I made them 777 ..but nothing happens

Also the max size seems to be OK! ???

are you copying the file to a directory?

What does your upload script look like?

 

 

function upload_copy_file() {
	if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'])) {
		$file 	= $_FILES['file']['name'];
		$path	= '/uploads/' . $file;
		if (copy($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $path)) { return 1; }
		else { return 2; }
	}
	else { return 3; }
}

yes, i am copping the files in a directoy on the web server.

My upload script is:

 

function upload_file() {

global $userfile, $userfile_name, $userfile_size,

$userfile_type, $archive_dir, $WINDIR;

if(isset($WINDIR)) $userfile = str_replace("\\\\","\\", $userfile);

$filename = basename($userfile_name);

if($userfile_size <= 0) die ("$filename is empty.");

if(!@copy($userfile, "$archive_dir/$filename"))

die("Nuk mund të kopjojë $userfile_name tek $filename.");

//if(isset(!$WINDIR) && !@unlink($userfile))

//die ("Can't delete the file $userfile_name.");

echo "Imazhi $filename u upload-ua me sukses.<BR>";

echo  "<a href=mod_imazhe.php>Klioni ketu per te bere upload nje imazh tjeter</a>" ;}

try using / instead of \\

[b_kitty]

It didn't work

Anyway...can i use a path like this $archive_dir = "../../Index/imazhe";????

[camdagr81]

you should be able to, is your script checking for is_uploaded_file() anywhere? That will tell you if the file is even being uploaded to your host.

[b_kitty]

mmmmmmmm...no.

 

But i am checking it from my FTP and no upload is happening!

 

Maybe i should ask for the appache and php configuration files to be checked ???

 

By the way...thank you for your help and replys

No problem

 

I'm sure the problem is that you're not copying the file from the temp directory of the host. If you take a look at the upload_copy_file() function i posted here above, you can see how it takes the http post info and determines if the file has been uploaded. Also, in your upload form, do you have the: enctype="multipart/form-data" tag included? The file will not send to the server if it isn't present. If you want, i can take a look at your entire script and try to debug it for you (I'm avoiding doing my own work at the moment.. teehee).

Try using this as  your upload function:

function upload_file() {
// Check to see if the file has been uploaded to the server
if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {
	// get the file name from the form and replace spaces with underscore '_'
	$userfile		=		str_replace(' ', '_', $_FILES['userfile']['name']);

	// Set the save to directory
	$saveto		=		'../../Index/imazhe/';

	// Copy the file from the servers temp directory to your sites directory
	if (copy($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $saveto . $file)) { 
		// If successful -> echo upload message and exit function
		echo "Imazhi $filename u upload-ua me sukses.<BR>"; return; 
	}

	// If unable to copy send error message and exit the function
	else { 
		echo "Nuk mund të kopjojë $userfile_name tek $userfile.";  return;
	}
}// end if_uploaded_file();

// Send Error message if unable to upload file
else { echo "ERROR UPLOADING FILE"; return; }
}// end upload_file()

sorry i couldn't reply immediately...but anyway, it didn't work :'(

Anny other idea ??

[camdagr81]

Hmmm not sure why it won't work for you. Maybe something server related then.

Is the server a Windows box or Linux?

If it is Windows I'm pretty sure you can't change permissions via FTP.

 

BTW

there is FTP functions in PHP, you upload via FTP using PHP

[b_kitty]

It is a LINUX server.

 

I tried the script in XAMPP environment and it worked! But it doesn't where it should...in the LINUX server

Anyway, for security reasons, the hosting guys dont allow ftp for any user..only internal users, so i need the browser version of upload for the users to upload from anywhere!
