renaming files on server

[Paul_Ferrie]

Hi guys,

I am having a bit of a problem renaming files on the server.

I have a form the uploads files and gives them a temp name.
56__thumb.jpg
56_0_image.jpg
56_1_image.jpg
56_2_image.jpg
56_3_image.jpg
56_4_image.jpg
And so on...
The second part of this form is to submit the data to the database and and use the returned mysql_insertid() to rename the files.

I cant get the file to rename.

Here is the code i am using.

if($result){
	if ($handle = opendir("../media/gallery/")) {
		$i=0;
    	while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
      		if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
		 		if(substr_count($file, $tempID.'__thumb.jpg')==1){
					rename("../media/gallery/".$tempID.'__thumb.jpg', "../media/gallery/".$moveID.'_thumb.jpg')
				}else{
				$i++;
				}
    		}

	}
	closedir($handle);
}
}

Thanks for any help or input

Have you tried

echo substr_count($file, $tempID.'__thumb.jpg'); to find out whether or not it equals 1 or not.

[Paul_Ferrie]

This is the full script and the form is flash based.

galTitle 	= $_POST['galTitle']; 
$tempID		= $_POST['tempID']; 
$galDate 	= date("Y-m-d"); 
//-------------------------//
$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO gallery (gal_title, gal_date)VALUES('$galTitle','$galDate')");
$result = $query;     

if (!$result) {
    fail("Couldn't add gallery to database");
}
$moveID = mysql_insert_id();
//----------------------------------//

if($result){
	if ($handle = opendir("../media/gallery/")) {
		$i=0;
    	while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
      		if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
			echo substr_count($file, $tempID.'__thumb.jpg');
		 		if(substr_count($file, $tempID.'__thumb.jpg')==1){

				rename($file, "../media/gallery/".$moveID.'_thumb.jpg')
			}else{
			$i++;
			}
		}

	}
	closedir($handle);
}
}
echo "&retval=1&"; 

This does nothing and returns nothing.
If i remove the read dir then the data inputs to the database.
I thought i might be an error in the code but no errors are appearing in the output

galTitle 	= $_POST['galTitle']; 
$tempID		= $_POST['tempID']; 
$galDate 	= date("Y-m-d"); 
//-------------------------//
$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO gallery (gal_title, gal_date)VALUES('$galTitle','$galDate')");
$result = $query;     

if (!$result) {
    fail("Couldn't add gallery to database");
}
$moveID = mysql_insert_id();
//----------------------------------//
echo "&retval=1&";

I am now able to rename indevidual files

	if ($handle = opendir("../media/gallery")) {
    	while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
      		if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
				if( substr_count($file, $tempID.'__thumb.jpg')==1){
					@rename("../media/gallery/".$file, "../media/gallery/".$moveID.'_thumb.jpg');
					@rename("../media/random/".$tempID."__random.jpg", "../media/random/".$moveID.'_random.jpg');
				}		
			}
    	}
	}

Still not able to rename multipule files though

$tempID=$_GET['tempID'];
$moveID=8;

if ($handle = opendir("../media/gallery/")) {
	$i=0;
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
      	if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
			//
			if(substr_count($file, $tempID.'__thumb.jpg')==1){
			echo "found=".$file."<br>";
			}else if(substr_count($file, $tempID.'_'.$i.'_image.jpg')){
			//rename("../media/gallery/".$file, "../media/gallery/".$moveID.'_'.$i.'_image.jpg');
			echo "found=".$file;
			}	
			echo $file."<br>";
			echo substr_count($file, $tempID."_".$i."_image.jpg")."<br>";
			$i++;	
		}
    }
	closedir($handle);
}

Still having issue's with this 🙁

Files are upload to a temp folder.

i then submit the form and run the script to move the files from the temp folder to the newly created folder.

$moveID		= 1;
$tempPath 	= "../temp/";
$movePath	= "../media/gallery/".$moveID."/";
if (!file_exists($movePath)) {
	mkdir("../media/gallery/".$moveID,0777);
	$movePath="../media/gallery/".$moveID;
	chmod($movePath,0777);
}
$files = array();
if ($handle = opendir($tempPath)) {
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
		if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
		$files[] = $file;		
		}	
	}
	closedir($handle);
}
for($i = 0 ; $i < count($files) ; $i++) {
   	$file2 = $files[$i];
	if($file2!='_thumb.jpg'){
		rename($tempPath.$file2, $movePath.$i."_image.jpg");
		echo "Image found =".$tempPath.$file2."<br>";
	}else if($file2!=$i.'_image.jpg'){
		rename($tempPath.$file2, $movePath."_thumb.jpg");
		echo "Thumb found =".$tempPath.$file2."<br>";
	}
}

Can anyone see anything wrong?
all looks correct to me but those damn files wont copy to the new folder.

[Paul_Ferrie]

Anyone please. I really need to get this sorted.

thanks

[Paul_Ferrie]

Can no one shed any light on this :s

[Paul_Ferrie]

Got this sorted so i thought i would post the code so that others can make use of it.

$moveID		= "1";
$tempPath 	= "../temp/";
$movePath	= "../media/gallery/".$moveID."/";
if (!is_dir($movePath)) {
	$newDir="/httpdocs/media/gallery/".$moveID;
	$path="/httpdocs/media/gallery/";
	function FtpMkdir($path, $newDir) {
   $server='www.mydomain.com'; // ftp server 
   $connection = ftp_connect($server); // connection 
   $user = "user"; 
   $pass = "pass"; 
   $result = ftp_login($connection, $user, $pass);
   if ((!$connection) || (!$result)) { 
       return false; 	  

       exit(); 
   } else { 
       if (!ftp_chdir($connection, $path)) { // go to destination dir 
			$r = false; 
       } else if (!ftp_mkdir($connection,$newDir)) { // create directory 
           $r = false;
       } else if (!ftp_site($connection, "CHMOD 0777 $newDir")){ // change attributes
           $r = false;
       } else { 
           $r = $newDir; 
       }
   }  

   ftp_close($connection); // close connection 
   return $r;
}
$runMe=FtpMkdir($path,$newDir);
if(!$runMe){
echo "error";
}else{
$files = array();
if ($handle = opendir($tempPath)) {
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
		if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
		$files[] = $file;		
		}	
	}
	closedir($handle);
}
for($i = 0 ; $i < count($files) ; $i++) {
   	$file2 = $files[$i];
	if($file2!='_thumb.jpg'){
       copy($tempPath.$file2, $movePath.$i."_image.jpg");

	print "Copying... <br>".$tempPath.$file2." to ". $movePath.$i."_image.jpg"."<br>";

}else if($file2!=$i.'_image.jpg'){
	copy($tempPath.$file2, $movePath."_thumb.jpg");

	print "Copying... <br>".$tempPath.$file2." to ".$movePath."_thumb.jpg" ."<br>";

}
