This question already has an answer here:
- PHP fileinfo is undefined function 7 answers
//checks size of uploaded image on server side
if( $_FILES['userfile']['size'] < $maxsize) {
//checks whether uploaded file is of image type
//if(strpos(mime_content_type($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']),"image")===0) {
$finfo=finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE);
if(strpos(finfo_file($finfo, $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']),"image")===0) {
// prepare the image for insertion
$imgData =addslashes (file_get_contents($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']));
// put the image in the db...
// database connection
mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) OR DIE (mysql_error());
// select the db
mysql_select_db ($db) OR DIE ("Unable to select db".mysql_error());
I have already tried changing In php.ini search php_fileinfo.dll to find this:
;extension=php_fileinfo.dll
Delete ; from front, save the file and close. Restart Apache server.But still I am getting the fatal error in line $finfo = finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE); And my php version is 5.6.8 as shown.
