PHPfileuploader errors

Reply Quote

Hi,

I'm testing phpfileuploader on our site and have a few problems.

Using the single file upload example

1) Uploading a 5 MB file displays a message box after the upload has taken place saying the file is too big (5.92 MB) although the max setting is 10MB

2) On smaller files I get an error using the MoveTo or CopyTo functions

Uploaded File:
FileName : 1G34.pdf
FileSize : 5206
FilePath : /tmp/uploadertemp/persisted.442f2080-c1a6-4051-bc4f-4e440262a02a.1G34.pdf.resx

Warning: copy(/documents) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/charterh/public_html/phpfileuploader/phpuploader/include_phpuploader.php on line 729

Any ideas?

Regards,

OK, resolved this bit, the max file size setting on the server is 2MB

Thanks Adam but I have no control over the host max file limit.

I'm more concerned with my 2nd problem, all files error with this type of warning

2) On smaller files I get an error using the MoveTo or CopyTo functions

Uploaded File:
FileName : 1G34.pdf
FileSize : 5206
FilePath : /tmp/uploadertemp/persisted.442f2080-c1a6-4051-bc4f-4e440262a02a.1G34.pdf.resx

Warning: copy(/documents) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/charterh/public_html/phpfileuploader/phpuploader/include_phpuploader.php on line 729

Thanks

Cary

Cary,

You are probably getting this error because the permission on your directory are not setup correctly. You need to give "write" permission to the "documents" directory for your script to work properly.

To do this, connect to your site with your FTP and give the documents directory permission to write with 777.

Hi Adam,

After a bit of manipulation of the php scripts I've finally got it working.

In include_phploader.php I had to modify the GetSystemTempFolder function....

on my host system the upload_tmp_dir is null so I had to modify the path to my tmp folder

if($str==null||strlen($str)==0)
$str="/home/charterh/tmp";

and then in the single/multiplefiles scripts I had to use

$mvcfile->MoveTo("/home/charterh/uploads/".$mvcfile->FileName);

instead of

$mvcfile->MoveTo("/uploads");

Make sense?

Regards,

Cary

Cary:

You can set the :

$uploader->TempDirectory="/home/charterh/tmp";

instead of modifying the source. Otherwise you need modify it again if you upgrate the product.

The MoveTo method just use the move function , so the parameter should be a full path instead of a directory.

Regards,

Terry

$uploader->TempDirectory="/home/charterh/tmp";

This doesn't work for me, I changed the GetSystemTempFolder back to the original and tried the above and nothing happens, the file uploads "somewhere" but after the upload the "Uploaded File:" information doesn't appear.

The MoveTo method just use the move function , so the parameter should be a full path instead of a directory.

Looking at the source the MoveTo function use the rename function ie. rename($this->FilePath,$newpath);

If I use $mvcfile->MoveTo("/home/charterh/uploads"); I get this error:

Warning: rename(/home/charterh/tmp/uploadertemp/persisted.e980b51f-cf0c-48d7-bdbb-a655293f5944.IMAG0084.jpg.resx,/home/charterh/uploads) [function.rename]: Is a directory

Which looks like the error is caused by trying to rename a file to a directory which is why I now use

$mvcfile->MoveTo("/home/charterh/uploads/".$mvcfile->FileName);

Full Path + filename.

Regards,

Cary

Cary,

Please download the control again.

We have improved a little on the TempDirectory issue.

hi Cj,

I hope someone can help me here.

I have the same problem.

My file limit is 15MB.

I have tweaked php.ini according to the manual.

my php setting now are:

file_uploads : on

max_execution_time : 300

max_input_time : 300

memory_limit : 64M

post_max_size : 16M

upload_max_filesize : 16M

I don't know what else is wrong here. I want my users to be able to upload max 15mb of file and now when I try to upload a 3mb file (which takes about 1 min and 10 seconds), it says the 3mb is too large while file size limit is 15M !

Isn't that strange??

Please help.

Sean
