File Upload Problem

[hanlonj]

Hi,

 

The following code is supposed to upload a file to a directory on my local testing server called "upload_directory". It get's it's info from a simple file upload form. It echoes to the screen that "File was moved!" but when I check if it has been moved, it hasn't. Any ideas?

 

<?php

$file_dir = "..\upload_directory";

foreach ($_FILES as $file_name => $file_array){

echo "path: ".$file_array['tmp_name']. "<br>\n";
echo "name: ".$file_array['name']. "<br>\n";
echo "type: ".$file_array['type']. "<br>\n";
echo "size: ".$file_array['size']. "<br>\n";

if (is_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'])){
	move_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'],
		"\$file_dir\$file_array['name']") or die ("Couldn't Copy!");

	echo "File was moved!<br><br>";

	}
}

?>

Have you checked the permissions on 'upload_directory'?

Have you checked the permissions on 'upload_directory'?

 

Yes, it's just on my local machine at the moment so I presume the windows default setting for folders will suit? Just to be sure I have opened it up for sharing and it still doesn't work.Is there any obvious bug in the code?

Hi,

 

Try this.....

 

$file_dir = "../upload_directory/";

foreach ($_FILES as $file_name => $file_array)

{

echo "path: ".$file_array['tmp_name']. "<br>\n";

echo "name: ".$file_array['name']. "<br>\n";

echo "type: ".$file_array['type']. "<br>\n";

echo "size: ".$file_array['size']. "<br>\n";

if (is_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name']))

{

move_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'], $file_dir . $file_array['name']) or die ("Couldn't Copy!");

echo "File was moved!<br><br>";

}

}
