I am trying to upload files to a server using PHP move_uploaded_file and I am getting the following error:
Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: The second argument to copy() function cannot be a directory in /Users/Rick/Sites/upload/upload.php on line 7
Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/temp/phpDlCZUd' to '/Users/Rick/Sites/upload/uploads/richardgregson' in /Users/Rick/Sites/upload/upload.php on line 7
Below is my code, nothing complicated.
if($_POST["upload"]){
$target_path = "/Users/Rick/Sites/upload/uploads/" . $_POST["name"];
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)){
echo "<div class='success'>The file " . "<span class='filename'>" . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']) . "</span>" . " has been uploaded</div>";
} else {
echo "<div class='error'>There was an error uploading the file, please try again!</div>";
}
}
The permissions on the folder it is writing to are correct. I dont understand the error "cannot be a directory as the argument is where we are moving the file to so it has to be a directory.."
Thanks
Rick
