images

Ruth · April 1, 2008

I'm trying to allow a user to upload images and I getting the following errors:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(C:/projects/pratice/WWW/ch07/images/) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\projects\pratice\WWW\ch07\check_image.php on line 17

Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move 'C:\xampp\tmp\phpD9.tmp' to 'C:/projects/pratice/WWW/ch07/images/' in C:\projects\pratice\WWW\ch07\check_image.php on line 17

According to everything I've read it has something to do with the path, but I'm unsure how to fix it.

Before I post my code below I ask that you not assume, if you don't understand something please ask.

<?php

//connect to db

require_once('dbconnection.php');

//pull var from form

$image_caption = $_POST['image_caption'];

$image_username = $_POST['image_username'];

$image_tempname = $_POST['image_filename'];

$today = date("Y-m-d");

//upload image and check for image type

//path not working

$imageDir = "C:/projects/pratice/WWW/ch07/images/";

$imageName = $imageDir . $image_tempname;

//check to see if file is valid upload file (uploaded by post)

if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image_filename']['tmp_name'], $imageName))

{

//get info about the image being uploaded

list ($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($imageName);

switch ($type)

{

case 1:

$ext = ".gif";

break;

case 2:

$ext = ".jpg";

break;

case 3:

$ext = ".png";

break;

default:

echo "Sorry, but the file you uploaded was not a GIF,

JPG, or PNG file <br />";

echo "Please hit your browser's 'back' button and try again";

}

//insert info into image table

$insert = "INSERT INTO images

(image_caption, image_username, image_date)

VALUES

('$image_caption', '$image_username', '$today')";

$insertResults = mysql_query($insert) or die (mysql_error());

$lastpicid = mysql_insert_id();

$newfilename = $imageDir . $lastpicid . $ext;

rename ($imageName, $newfilename);

}

?>

<html>

<head>

</head>

<body>

<p>Here is the picture you just uploaded to our servers:</p>

<img src = "images/<?php echo $lastpicid . $ext;?>" align="left">

This image is a <?php echo $ext;?> image.<br />

It is <?php echo $width;?> pixels wide

and <?php echo $height;?> pixels high.<br />

It was uploaded on <?php echo $today;?>.

Suggestions anyone ???

darkfreaks · April 1, 2008

you have specified the wrong path most likely be sure its exact

Ruth · April 1, 2008

lol I know that but I'm not sure what the right path is. I'm following along with a book that is kinda like follow me then try it yourself. The show the path as c:/program files/apache group/apache2/test/images. I tired to follow this path manually and could not find apache group, i tired the path anyway and get the same error.

Ruth · April 1, 2008

The path posted in my code is the right path to my files and to the image folder.

redarrow · April 1, 2008

in htdocs create a folder called images put the images in the folder

then use this script u made but make sure it also in htdocs

<?php
//connect to db
require_once('dbconnection.php');

//pull var from form
$image_caption = $_POST['image_caption'];
$image_username = $_POST['image_username'];
$image_tempname = $_POST['image_filename'];
$today = date("Y-m-d");

//upload image and check for image type
//path not working
$imageDir = "images/";
$imageName = $imageDir . $image_tempname;

//check to see if file is valid upload file (uploaded by post)
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image_filename']['tmp_name'], $imageName))
{
   //get info about the image being uploaded
   list ($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($imageName);
   
   switch ($type)
   {
      case 1:
         $ext = ".gif";
         break;
         
      case 2:
         $ext = ".jpg";
         break;
         
      case 3:
         $ext = ".png";
         break;
         
      default:
         echo "Sorry, but the file you uploaded was not a GIF,
              JPG, or PNG file
";
         echo "Please hit your browser's 'back' button and try again";
   }
   
   //insert info into image table
   $insert = "INSERT INTO images
            (image_caption, image_username, image_date)
            VALUES
               ('$image_caption', '$image_username', '$today')";
   $insertResults = mysql_query($insert) or die (mysql_error());
   
   $lastpicid = mysql_insert_id();
   
   $newfilename = $imageDir . $lastpicid . $ext;
   
   rename ($imageName, $newfilename);
}

There are no images right now stored in the image folder. The user is supposed to upload whatever to the image folder. I'll try to find this document and see whats in it though.

darkfreaks · April 1, 2008

try

<?php
$uploaddir = '';
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['upfile']['name']);
echo '<pre>';
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['upfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
   echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
} else {
   echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";
}
echo 'Here is some more debugging info:';
print_r($_FILES);
print "</pre>";
?>

Ruth · April 1, 2008

This is what I get when I tired your suggestion

Possible file upload attack!

Here is some more debugging info:Array

(

[image_filename] => Array

(

[name] => jim_carrey.jpg

[type] => image/jpeg

[tmp_name] => C:\xampp\tmp\phpDB.tmp

[error] => 0

=> 7938

)

try this quickly in htdocs and a folder caled images......

<?php


$uploaddir = 'images/';
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);

if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
    echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
} else {
    echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";
}

?>

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action=" " method="POST">
    <!-- MAX_FILE_SIZE must precede the file input field -->
    <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" />
    <!-- Name of input element determines name in $_FILES array -->
    Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" />
    <input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>

Ruth · April 1, 2008

I'm confused about the htdocs folder, what does it have to do with my problem? I have a form that is before the code I posted ealier. Here is the form

<html>

<head>

<title>Upload your pic to our site!</title>

</head>

<body>

<form name = "form1" method = "post" action = "check_image.php"

enctype = "multipart/form-data">

<tr>

<td>Image Title or Caption<br />

<em>Example: You talkin' to me?</em></td>

<td>

<input name="image_caption" type="text" id="item_caption"

size="55" maxlength="255">

</td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Your Username</td>

<td>

<input name="image_username" type="text" id="image_username"

size="15" maxlength="255">

</td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Upload Image:</td>

<td>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

<br />

<em>Acceptable image formats include: GIF, JPG/JPEG, and PNG.</em>

</p>

</form>

</body>

</html>

Ruth · April 1, 2008

I tired this

$uploaddir = 'images/';

$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);

if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {

echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";

} else {

echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";

}

Along with the error messages I get Possible file upload attack!

redarrow · April 1, 2008

You should be sitting php pages in a folder called htdocs when you

create a folder lets say images to now access images it images/ /<<< meaning open image folder or go inside image folder...........

redarrow · April 1, 2008

sorry dont no xamp have u read xamp manual and were xamp store there files....

Ruth · April 1, 2008

Thats just it I don't use htdocs. I store all my projecs in C:/projects. I use MyEclipse which reads the files in the folder projects. I can run and debug through MyEclipse. I don't manually upload anything to a server and I don't use htdocs.

darkfreaks · April 1, 2008

OK same function as before but with a different function

try:

<?php

if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {
   echo "File ". $_FILES['userfile']['name'] ." uploaded successfully.\n";
   echo "Displaying contents\n";
   readfile($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']);
} else {
   echo "Possible file upload attack: ";
   echo "filename '". $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] . "'.";
}

?>

redarrow · April 1, 2008

Ruth · April 1, 2008

Come on guys don't tell you've given up that easily ::)

Ruth · April 1, 2008

I've tired

if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {

echo "File ". $_FILES['userfile']['name'] ." uploaded successfully.\n";

echo "Displaying contents\n";

readfile($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']);

} else {

echo "Possible file upload attack: ";

echo "filename '". $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] . "'.";

}

and get Possible file upload attack: filename ''.
