move_uploaded_file（）返回false

Question

Basically, the method returns false every time and I have tried changing the tmp folder and given PHP writing permissions in the /uploads folder

The PHP script:

<?php
$uploadfile = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];

echo '<pre>';
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "uploads/$uploadfile")) {
    echo "Uploaded.
";
} else {
    echo "Not uploaded.
";
}
echo 'Here is some more debugging info:';
print_r($_FILES);

print "</pre>";

?>

How I gave permissions: https://gyazo.com/89a706adfefea2a2edf090e7cc11cf66

The form in the html file:

<form method="POST" action="savepic.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input class="file" type="file" name="userfile">
    <input type="submit" value="Upload">
    <p>Not available...</p>
</form>

The log for errors gave me these two:

PHP Warning: move_uploaded_file(uploads/65 wat.jpg): failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\UPT\test\savepic.php on line 5

PHP Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move 'C:\Windows\Temp\php8F38.tmp' to 'uploads/65 wat.jpg' in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\UPT\test\savepic.php on line 5

All help much appreciated.

Answer 1

So I finally found out what was the real problem. The folder, which i was trying to upload to, was created by my own user, meaning it wasn't owned by IIS (This article was very helpful in determining that).

Therefore, I had to change the owner of the folder to IIS_IUSRS and after doing so, the PHP script worked.

The details on changing owners of folders are perfectly described in the article mentioned before.
