Question

I have this code that i use to upload files on the server. But I get a custom Error produced by else statement,but I need to know the real reason why php is unable to upload the file.
I Get error 2 but I dont get the actual message.
Any suggestions?

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path."/")) {
            echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded";
        } else{
            echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again! ".$_FILES['uploadedfile']['error'];
        }

You can try this for actual error occured

  $upload_errors = array(
    UPLOAD_ERR_OK        => "No errors.", 
    UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE    => "Larger than upload_max_filesize.",
    UPLOAD_ERR_FORM_SIZE    => "Larger than form MAX_FILE_SIZE.",
    UPLOAD_ERR_PARTIAL    => "Partial upload.",
    UPLOAD_ERR_NO_FILE        => "No file.",
    UPLOAD_ERR_NO_TMP_DIR    => "No temporary directory.",
    UPLOAD_ERR_CANT_WRITE    => "Can't write to disk.",
    UPLOAD_ERR_EXTENSION     => "File upload stopped by extension.",
    UPLOAD_ERR_EMPTY        => "File is empty." // add this to avoid an offset
  );
   // error: report what PHP says went wrong
   $err =  $upload_errors[$_FILES['uploadedfile']['error']];

   echo $err;
