what would cause this?

[mediafly]

I have a upload file option that works fine. And then I have a page that shows all the files in that folder with a link with the full path to the file. Everything works fine on my machine and have tested it on a couple other servers, but the one that I need to run this on I'm getting this problem:

When I upload the file using the browse option It works and I can see it on the page with the downloadable link. But the download link brings up a 404 error that it does not exist even though the path is correct and the file is there. If I upload it using ftp software it works fine. I have the direcrory set to CHMOD 777. Any Ideas?

here's the php for the upload.

<?
$uploaddir = '/var/www/html/mypath/';
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['UPLOAD']['name']);
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['UPLOAD']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
echo "File Uploaded";
}else{
print_r($_FILES);
}
?>

Thanks

is /var/www/html/mypath/ a public directory within the document root?

well that is just an example of my script and yes it's public, but that path that im using is correct and does dump the file into the directory. I tried using the root directory and the http path and both worked with the same results.
