    Check the permissions on the folder you are trying to write to – if the image is not being uploaded and the move_uploaded_file fails, then the row won’t be inserted into the database at all.

    For comparison, here’s some code from an app I use to upload a file to the server:

    if ((($_FILES["avatar"]["type"] == "image/gif")
    || ($_FILES["avatar"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
    || ($_FILES["avatar"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")
    || ($_FILES["avatar"]["type"] == "image/png"))
    && ($_FILES["avatar"]["size"] < 200000))
{
    if ($_FILES["avatar"]["error"] > 0)
    {
        $error =  "Return Code: " . $_FILES["avatar"]["error"] . "<br />";
    }
    else
    {
        $fname = time() . '-' . $formData['username'] .$_FILES["avatar"]["name"];
        $fname = str_replace(" ", "_", $fname);
        if (file_exists("/myserverdir/images/avatars/" . $fname))
        {
            $fname = time() . '-' . $formData['username'] .$_FILES["avatar"]["name"];
            $fname = str_replace(" ", "_", $fname);
        }
        move_uploaded_file($_FILES["avatar"]["tmp_name"], "/myserverdir/images/avatars/" . $fname);
    }
}
else if (!file_exists($_FILES['avatar']['tmp_name']) || !is_uploaded_file($_FILES['avatar']['tmp_name']))
{
    $fname = 'default_avatar.jpg';
}
else
{
    $error = "Invalid file";
}

    My form looks something like:

    <form method="post" action="myaction.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="file" name="avatar" />
    <input type="text" name="username" />
</form>
