I have set up a php script which creates a directory and uploads a file to that directory. My issue is that when I use the script to create the directory, the file will not upload entirely. I ran the exact same script on a different host and the upload process works just fine. Plus, if I manually create the upload directory and apply chmod 777 via ftp then the transfer works just fine. Could there be some sort of a setting with the hosting provider that needs to be altered to allow the function to work just right?
Here is the upload form:
<form action="/uploadFile.php" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="img_preview">Preview Image:</label>
<input type="file" name="img_preview" id="img_preview" />
<br />
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="newDirectory" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Upload Flyer" />
</form>
Here is my PHP script (uploadFile.php):
$thisdir = getcwd();
$new_dir = $_POST['id'];
$full_dir = $thisdir . "/upload/" . $new_dir;
function chk_dir($full_dir) {
if(is_dir($full_dir)) {
echo 'welcome back';
} else {
return mkdir($full_dir);
}
}
chk_dir($full_dir);
chmod($full_dir, 0777);
?>
<?php
//upload image
if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
{
echo "Error: " . $_FILES["img_preview"]["error"] . "<br />";
}
else
{
}
//set image restrictions
?>
<?php
if ((($_FILES["img_preview"]["type"] == "image/gif")
|| ($_FILES["img_preview"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["img_preview"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg"))
&& ($_FILES["img_preview"]["size"] < 80000))
{
if ($_FILES["img_preview"]["error"] > 0)
{
echo "Please only upload an image for previewing (jpg or gif)...<br>
Also, check to make sure the filesize is less than 8MB" . $_FILES["img_preview"]["error"] . "<br />";
}
else
{
//check the image into new directory
if (file_exists("upload/". $new_dir ."/". $_FILES["img_preview"]["name"]))
{
echo "It seems that " . $_FILES["img_preview"]["name"] . " already exists.";
}
else
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["img_preview"]["tmp_name"],
"upload/" . $_POST['id'] . "/" . $_FILES["img_preview"]["name"]);
echo "image file has transferred successfully!";
}
}
}
else
{
echo "Invalid file please contact for assistance.";
}
?>
Also, when I run the script no errors are produced and the file echos "image file has transferred successfully!" but then when I check for the file in the new location it is completely void. Thank you for your time in this issue.
