File Uploading

[ATLien]

if ($image != '')
{
	$filedir = "/home/students/public_html/userphotos/";

$userfile_name = $_FILES['image']['name'];
$userfile_tmp = $_FILES['image']['tmp_name'];
$userfile_size = $_FILES['image']['size'];
$userfile_type = $_FILES['image']['type'];

$imagesize1 = getimagesize($userfile_tmp);

if ($imagesize1[2] == '1'){
	$ext = 'gif';}
if ($imagesize1[2] == '2'){
	$ext = 'jpg';}
if ($imagesize1[2] == '3'){
	$ext = 'png';}

$newfilename = $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['username'] . "_". md5(microtime() . $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REMOTE_ADDR']) . '.' . $ext;
$newfile = rename("$userfile_tmp/$userfile_name", "$filedir$newfilename");


if (!$imagesize[2] == "1" || !$imagesize[2] == "2" || !$imagesize[2] == "3")
{
	$sqlpath = "http://www.StudentsView.com/$newfilename";
	$sqlimage = "<img src=\"$sqlpath\" border=\"0\" height=\"$imagesize[1]\" width=\"$imagesize[0]\">";
	$sql = mysql_query("UPDATE sv_users SET user_photo = '$sqlimage' WHERE user_id = '$id'");
}
else{
	echo 'The image you chose to upload was not a valid type.<br>Only JPEG, GIF, and PNG are allowed.';
	exit;
}
}
else{
	echo 'There was a problem while trying to upload your image. <br> Please try again later date';
}

That is the code I use for my image handling. Am I doing it right? I am getting this error:

Warning: rename(/tmp/phpDe7YK2/atlien.jpg,/home/students/public_html/userphotos/ATLien_d5279a54d5bc53ed5fd609c13dbffb5b.jpg): Not a directory in /home/students/public_html/profile.php on line 257

Does anyone know what could be causing this? the directory I am trying to put it in to is chmod 777. Could it be that the directories it is trying to access are not from the home? Like is it looking for them from the folder the file is in? Someone please help me.

copy($userfile_tmp, $filedir.$newfilename);

I tried copy but still got the same thing.

You changed it from

"$userfile_tmp/$userfile_name" which is redundant/not correct to
$userfile_tmp
?

[ATLien]

But the $userfile_tmp is just the path. There is no file name with it.

So why does this example in the PHP User Manual (handling file uploads) work?

copy($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "/place/to/put/uploaded/file");

I am not sure. When I use just the temp it says file doesn't exist. I am so lost on this script. I have been trying to get it working for almost 3 days now and still nothing. I have file uploading!!!!

Could you check to see if Safe Mode is enabled on your server?

Run this script:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

and look for safe mode.

[ATLien]

safe mod is off
