By default, your webserver doesnt have permissions to write to directories
other than /tmp or /temp.
File uploads as you discovered are placed in the temp directories first,
then you have to copy them to a storage directory accessible to your server
- though I recommend placing it outside
Hi all
I am trying to upload a file. It works fine on my local Apache, but
gives me Permission denied to create file error on my online host..
Any clue???
$file = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
if (is_uploaded_file($file))
print_r(Copying .$file);
if (copy($file, ./files/.
I want to measure how much space is used by a
specific dir and echo it out
e.g.
/home/avalanche = 10mb
/home/damouse = 188kb
/home/pests == 20kb

I haven't done but one file upload, but it seems from the error message
that maybe PHP is trying to write the file to

Toby,
Your ISP may be using 'safe_mode'. Try the move_uploaded_file function()
instead of copy(). This is taken off php.net/move_uploaded_file:

$file = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
print_r($file . Br);
print($_FILES['userfile']['size'] . br);
move_uploaded_file($file, /Uploads);

/*

print_r($file . Br);
Well after a bit of struggle i got the solve to the problem
Now whether there was my misinterpretation, or the incmplete documentation of the php
