Question

I have this code to move my uploaded file to a specific directory:

if (isset($_FILES["image"]["name"])){ 
    if (!is_dir('pf/' . $uid)) {
        mkdir('pf/' . $uid);
        $large_image_location = "pf/" . $uid;
    }else {
        $large_image_location = "pf/" . $uid;
    }

    chmod ($large_image_location, 0777);
    move_uploaded_file("$userfile_tmp", "$large_image_location/$userfile_tmp");    

}

However that gives the following error:

( ! ) Warning: move_uploaded_file(pf/BfyhieniKJGGqTNm/C:\wamp\tmp\phpF08A.tmp) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Invalid argument in C:\wamp\www\mingle\upload_dp.php on line 26

Any help on how to sort this out would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

This is 90% of your woes:

 move_uploaded_file("$userfile_tmp", "$large_image_location/$userfile_tmp");

You using the moved to path at the beginning of the upload path. Try:

move_uploaded_file("$userfile_tmp", "$large_image_location/".$_FILES['image']['name']);

That should work better.
