Question

im having a problem with my php script working on local host but failing to create a dir when i upload it to my server:

upload_file.php:

   $img_tmp = $_FILES['pic']['tmp_name'];
   $path = mkdir("../path/folder/$id", 0700);
   $filename = "pic.jpg";
   $location ="../path/folder/$id/";
   $move_file = move_uploaded_file($img_tmp,$location.$filename);

the folder structure on server is similar.

FOLDER: path =>
FOLDER: folder =>
here the folder $id should be created.

FOLDER: upload_file =>
upload_file.php

can some one please advice to the problem/solution?

Answer 1

Please check the folder permission, folder permission should be 0777 to upload file.

So try setting the folder permission to 0777 or 0775

$path = mkdir("../path/folder/$id", 0777);

This should work.
