I have this very simple upload script, but i always get my echoed error message and i dont know why. I have set the file permission to chmod 777. Any sugestions?

 

<?php 
$target_path = "../adam/cycling/excel/"; 

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']); 

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
    echo "The file ".  basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). 
    " has been uploaded";
} else{
    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}

?>

i thought i had this solved. The script seems to run but the file is not moved across. Can anyone suggest why. The folder storing the uploads is set to chmod 777

 

<?php
$destination = "../adam/cycling/excel";
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] >0)
    {
    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
    }
  else
    {
move_uploaded_file ($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] , $destination . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
    echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
    echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
    echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
    echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";   
echo $destination;
}
    
?>

 

and this is the form

 

<html>
<body><form action="uploader.php" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="file">Filename:</label>
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" /> 
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form></body>
</html>

ok this is not solved, but sort of is. When i change the dirname to

 

$path = "../adam/cycling/CSV/";
$destination= dirname($path);

 

I get the error message

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/adam/cyclingBlue hills.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/12/d214897219/htdocs/adam/cycling/excel/uploader.php on line 11

 

It seems to miss off the last part of $path, but when the directory name is

 

$path = "../adam/cycling/";
$destination= dirname($path);

 

it works fine. What is going on. The directory is there and spelled correctly.

That now has the "/" between the folder and the file. But its still missing part of the path i.e the CSV part

 

$path = "../adam/cycling/excel/CSV/";
$destination= dirname($path)."/";

$path = "../adam/cycling/excel/CSV/";
$destination= dirname($path."/"); 

 

When i can path to this address i get the error

 

Warning: move_uploaded_file(../adam/cycling/excelWinter.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/12/d214897219/htdocs/adam/cycling/excel/uploader.php on line 11

If you look at the error its missing some of the file directory

(../adam/cycling/excelWinter.jpg)

 

this should have (../adam/cycling/excel/CSV/Winter.jpg)

This is the upload

 

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$path = '../adam/cycling/excel/CSV/';
$destination= dirname($path."/");
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] >0)
    {
    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
    }
  else
    {
move_uploaded_file ($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] , $destination. $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
    echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
    echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
    echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
    echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";   
}
    
?>

 

and this is the form

 

<html>
<body><form action="uploader.php" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="file">Filename:</label>
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" /> 
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form></body>
</html>

OR

 

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$path = dirname(__FILE__)."/CSV/";
$destination= $path;
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] >0)
    {
    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
    }
  else
    {
move_uploaded_file ($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] , $destination. $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
    echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
    echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
    echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
    echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";   
}
    
?>

 

i'm kinda lost..

 

i assume you want this

$path = dirname(__FILE__)."/CSV/";
$destination= $path;

 

 

 

 

basically your using dirname incorrectly

 

another option

 

$path = '../adam/cycling/excel/CSV/';

$destination= realpath($path);
