I am trying to copy an uploaded file to a dir I created. No Luck.

[Phrank]

I have a form and upload a file to the web server. I can see the file in the web servers tmp dir. I want to move that file to www.mydomain.com/UploadedFiles

Here is the code I am using:

$TempPath = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];

if (!move_uploaded_file($TempPath, "www.mydomain.com/UploadedFiles/$OriginalFileName"))
{
echo "File could not be moved.";
echo "<br>";
}
else
{
echo "We were able to move the uploaded file to the tempfilename.";
echo "<br>";
}

When I use my XP system with IIS and use the tmp dir that php uses it works great. When I move the script up to the web server and run it it fails. I know the dir is there I created it via FTP and can see it.

I am not finding alot of help in the books on this one.

Thanks

Frank

Hi,

try to use just UploadedFiles/$OriginalFileName instead of www.mydomain.php/UploadedFiles/$OriginalFileName.

Additionally, you might need to set the access rights of the created directory to a+rwx (UNIX/Linux) or give the IUSER_??? user write access on that directory (Windows).

UNIX systems are case sensitive so it makes a difference if the directory has the name uploadedfiles or UploadedFiles on UNIX systems.
