Re: FileUpload problematic

everything is working as it should. php handels its own garbage collection, when the script is over the file is deleted. you will have to copy or move the file somewhere. or just do something with it and allow php todo its ob and delete it when your done the script. ecec("cp $file /somewhere/$file_name"); -- Chris Lee lee@mediawaveonline.com ""Thalis A.

Helloppl, a problem with a file_upload form :-( Here is what I've done so far: File test.php which has the form is this: <HTML> <BODY> <?php include("handle_upload.php"); ?> <FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="<?php print $PHP_SELF ?>" METHOD="POST"> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="MAX_FILE_SIZE" VALUE="64000"> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="go!"> <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="up_file"> </FORM> </BODY> </HTML> Here is the included php file (handle_upload.php): <?php if(isset($up_file)){ print "<P>You have succesfully sent the following file:<BR>\n"; print "path: $up_file<BR>\n"; print "filename: $up_file_name<BR>\n"; print "filesize: $up_file_size<BR>\n"; print "filetype: $up_file_type<BR>\n"; } ?> When one submits a file (file exists and is within given MAX_FILE_SIZE boundaries), the handle_upload.php condition is true, so I get the following output in my browser: You have succesfully sent the following file: path: /tmp/phpvtMKjj filename: test2.jpg filesize: 27365 filetype: image/jpeg <and again the form to upload another file> Then I go and check under /tmp and I do not find anything :-( I have in my php.ini: ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; File Uploads ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; file_uploads = On upload_tmp_dir = /tmp upload_max_filesize = 2M I am using Apache 1.3.14 with DSO and php is a .so and Php is version 4.0.4 It is not a permissions problem cause I checked the Apache logs, and all dirs that need to be accessed are actually writable by the httpd user. I have read through "Handling file uploads" (http://www.php.net/manual/it/features.file-upload.php) and I don't see what is wrong :-( thanks ins advance, thalis -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
