cooldude832 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I have a submitter program that puts ads into a database, I temporarily put the images in a location so that if they are changed the temp names stay the same. Any ways after the users is done editing the ad I have a page that pushes the data to a mysql table and then attempts to rename the images to a permeate location. However I get: Warning: rename(files/61893_1.jpg,horse_41_1.jpg): Permission denied in /hsphere/local/home/pira00/upperstraitscleanlake.org/horse/horse_sql.php on line 85 The file that has the code is in the subfolder horses the images are in horses/files/ and i want to rename them to /horses/files/horse_num_num.jpg This is my code: $i=1; //Lets move those images into a folder so they don't get lost in temps while ($i <=4) { $newimgpath .= "horse_"; $newimgpath .= $idnum; $newimgpath .= "_"; $newimgpath .= $i; $newimgpath .= ".jpg"; $set = "-rw-rw-rw-"; chmod("/".$path[$i], 0777); rename("/".$path[$i],$newimgpath); $i++; } the array $path is valid Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/51759-having-some-issues-renaming-some-images/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman6003 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 check the permissions of the folder you are moving the files to...if you are using *nix do "chmod 0755 foldername". If windows, turn on "modify" permissions for the web username.
