File upload is not working.

baburman

File upload is not working. print_r($_FILES) shows this:

Array ( [uploadfile] => Array ( [name] => myfile.JPG [type] => image/jpeg [tmp_name] =>

C:\wamp\www\tmp\php5C.tmp [error] => 0 [size] => 17240 ) )

I am using wamp which includes apache server. Please help.

Well, the data you posted would seem to indicate that the upload from the browser worked, so I guess we need more info as to what you mean by "not working."

move_uploaded_file() comes to mind

This is the output:

Array ( [uploadfile] => Array ( [name] => Accounting.txt [type] => text/plain [tmp_name] => C:\wamp\www\tmp\php24.tmp [error] => 0 [size] => 4321 ) ) no file uploaded.

Also I can not see any file in C:\wamp\www\tmp\ directory.

And this is the Code:

if($REQUEST['Submit']=='Submit')
{
$file_name = $FILES['userfile']['name'];

print_r($_FILES);

if(trim($file_name)!= '') 
{
    echo $file_name;

}
else
{
    echo 'no file uploaded.';
}

}

Array ( [uploadfile] => Array

    $file_name = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];

Perhaps it's a bit clearer now 🙂

I think it shouid be $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"]

Did you note what "dagon" said?

No, it should be $_FILES['uploadfile']...

That's probably because you looked after the script finished executing (probably on the order of milliseconds, considering how short it is). If you don't move an uploaded file out of the temp directory, PHP's garbage cleanup routine will delete it when your script has finished executing.

Thankyou guys for your precious help. This is the code which works perfectly:

$file_name = $FILES["uploadfile"]["name"];
$file_type = $FILES["uploadfile"]["type"];
$file_size = $FILES['uploadfile']['size'];

$file_tempname = $FILES['uploadfile']['tmp_name'];

if(trim($file_name)!= '')
{
echo $file_name;
echo $file_type;
echo $file_size;

    move_uploaded_file($_FILES["uploadfile"]["tmp_name"], "test/" .

$_FILES["uploadfile"]["name"]);
}
else
{
echo 'no file uploaded.';
}

I must have used $FILES["uploadfile"]["name"] in stead of $FILES["userfile"]["name"].
