Upload Dilemna

pungkerton

My host migrated a site of mine to a new server. Now, I can't POST any uploaded images anywhere... frustrating! I can't even echo $_FILES variables; they come out blank.

Here's the simplest of simple codes:

<?

if( isset( $_POST['submit'] ) ){
	$date = time();
	$name = $_FILES['file']['name'];
	$temp = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
	echo( $temp."<br />" );
	$dest = "images/".$date.".jpg";
	if( copy( $temp,$dest ) ){
		echo( "Copied...<br />" );
	} else {
		echo( "Not copied...<br />".$_FILES['file']['error'] );
	}
}

?>

<form action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input name="file" type="file" size="50" />&nbsp;<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit" /></form>

No error message displays. I also tried $HTTP_POST_FILES without any success. Any ideas? Anyone?

Ask your host WTF they have done! Maybe they haven't enabled short tags in the new server.
or change your code so that all the <? tags are <?php

I changed it but it didn't work. The code was about five months old, and I just recently started using <? instead of <?php, so the old code is compliant.

I found that in the php.ini file, 'file_uploads' is set to 'no'. This is probably a huge part of it, and I can't seem to reset it with ini_set. I have no idea why they'd have set this, and I can't open an FTP connection and do it that way because I'm also using imagejpeg and imagecopyresampled... right? Is there a way around it?

Thanks for any feedback...

i think the real issue is the inablility to get those $_FILES working. like i said, i used $HTTP_POST_FILES as well with no luck. Would this be because of the php.ini setting ('file_uploads' is set to 'no')...

Iwould imagine so, it's certainly not going to help.
