I'm working on a project using codeigniter 3.0.6 and I need to upload image in some modules. the problem is that move_uploaded_file returns error code 0 but the file is nowhere to be found. I'm currently running this code on my localhost. if only it returns an error code then I can do something.. can anyone help me with this?
I've read Move_uploaded_file() function is not working too and my code below is based on one of the supposedly "working example" answer.. but still not working (error code 0 but file not found in directory). the mkdir($uploaddir, 0777, true); part doesn't seem to help.
this is my view file (display.php) :
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="submit" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="51200000" />
Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" />
<input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
and this is my controller file (test.php) :
function display()
{
$this->load->view('display');
}
function submit() {
$uploaddir = '/assets/img/guide/';
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);
if (!file_exists($uploaddir)) {
mkdir($uploaddir, 0777, true);
}
echo "<p>";
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.
";
} else {
echo "Upload failed";
}
echo "</p>";
echo '<pre>';
echo 'Error code:';
print_r($_FILES['userfile']['error']);
print "</pre>";
echo '<pre>';
echo 'Here is some more debugging info:';
print_r($_FILES);
print "</pre>";
echo $this->load->view('display', $this->data);
}
and this is the result after I submit the form:
File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.
Error code:0
Here is some more debugging info:Array ( [userfile] => Array ( [name] => Hydrangeas.jpg [type] => image/jpeg [tmp_name] => C:\xampp\tmp\php46FD.tmp [error] => 0 [size] => 595284 )
)
it turns out the files WERE uploaded but instead of going to my project's base folder (D:/myproject/dev/), the files were uploaded to the harddrive folder (D:/) so i guess the mistery's solved. I just need to figure out how to direct the target folder for upload.. maybe I'll put it in another question post.
thank you all
