Also, there is no Well, the destination folder (as I stated) is owned by user nobody and group nobody. Apache is running as user nobody and group nobody. And Im assuming that any files written in /tmp by Apache are owned by user nobody and group nobody. > copy_file() function listed at php.net...could this be a user built > function? Or are you talking about http://www.php.net/copy ? You're right - I changed the function to move_uploaded_file() which still doesn't work either. Here's a snippet of code (I have commented out passwords and database stuff with X's: 01: <? 02: $keys = array_keys($HTTP_POST_VARS); 03: for($i=0;$i<=count($keys);$i++) 04: { 05: $temp = $keys[$i]; 06: $HTTP_POST_VARS[$temp] = htmlentities($HTTP_POST_VARS[$temp]); 07: } 08: 09: $link = mysql_connect("localhost", "XXXXXXXX", "XXXXXXXXX") or exit("could not connect to the database"); 10: mysql_select_db("XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX") or die("could not select database"); 11: if($image == "") 12: { 13: unset($image_name); 14: } 15: else 16: { 17: move_uploaded_file($image, "/database/images/$image_name") or die("\nCannot move image file to directory.\n(Tried copying $image to ../database/images/$image_name)."); 18: chmod("../database/images/$image_name", 0777) or die("Cannot change file permission for image."); 19: } Line 17 generates the error message. I also did some tests and verified that the temp. file in /tmp if owned by user nobody and group nobody. Is there a way to generate an actual system error message if it is a system error? -- Aj. Sys.
