Re: copy() for file upload

Try move_uploaded_file and check rights for destination directory. Jochem thomash@gmx.co.za wrote:

Hi guys, I realize that this might be rather a question for the general list, but i will try it here anyway (still have to subscribe to general). I am using the copy() method to upload pictures to my site. However, i am experiencing all sorts of problems. The most common one is that it does not find the 'on-the-fly' variable called $File_name. This var gets created with the filename of the upload picture. Here are the two error messages i encounter: 1. Running Linux: Warning: Unable to open 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\Thomash\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\ieeelogo2.gif' for reading: No such file or directory in /usr/www/users/thomasd/members/mypictures.php on line 37 Warning: unlink() failed (No such file or directory) in /usr/www/users/thomasd/members/mypictures.php on line 38 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.
