Uploaded file cannot be copied?

[Anon]

Hi

I am having a copying problem in my upload script. I cannot copy the uploaded file into a perminent location. Right after uploading the file I wrote:
copy($filename, "$pdc_root/" . "$filename"); But nothing was copied at all. Why?

Thanks in advance

Hi cisman,

try
rename($filename, "$pdc_root/" .$filename_name);

and make sure that $pdc_root/ is totaly qualified (i had some problems when i used it in the way: $pdc_root/ = "../dir1/", use eg. "/var/www/dir1/" instead that works always... and of course the 'input type="file"' needs the name="filename" (just in case you forgotten...)
