PHP - Curl Uploading Files

Hello everyone,

I'm writing a script that allows a user to upload multiple attachments to an email from PHP. So far, everything seems to be working except the multiple attachments part. If I upload one file, it works. If I upload 2, it's messing up the file names so the files don't exist.

So if I upload a.jpg, it works. If I upload a.jpg and b.jpg, b.jpg gets named a b.jpg. Can someone help me understand why this is happening and how to fix it?

I'm almost certain its happening on my while loop around lune 72, but the more I look at the syntax the more it looks okay to me.

I had it appending the path to the file names (so a.jpg become uploads/a.jpg) so I commented that out in hopes that was causing the error but it didn't fix it.

Below is the full script.

I'm trying out a script that lets users upload files into a directory, the file path then should be saved on the user information in the database. This script keeps throwing "Undefined index: file" errors, even though I;m sure it should be defined. Could someone take a look please?

Here's the form I'm using:

Code: [Select]

<form id ='change0' action ='pic_up.php' method ='post'
    accept-charset='UTF-8'>
<fieldset >
<legend>Confirm Details</legend>
<input type ='hidden' name ='file' id ='file' value ='800000'/>
<label for ='file' >Upload Profile Pictu </label>
<input type ='file' name ='file' id ='file' />
<input type ='submit' name ='Submit' value ='Submit' />
</fieldset>
</form>


Here's the PHP script:

Code: [Select]
<?php
  include 'connect.php';
  
  session_start();
  $_SESSION['username']; 
  $username = $_SESSION['username'];
  
  if(!(isset($_SESSION['login']) && $_SESSION['login']!= " ")){
       header("Location: login.php");
   }
  
  $tablename = 'usr_test';
  
  $targ = "localhost/img/";
  $targ = $targ . basename($_FILES['file']['name']);
    
  $file = ($_FILES['file']['name']);
  
  
  mysql_query("INSERT INTO $tablename (pic) VALUES ($file) WHERE usr = '$username'");
  
  if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $targ))
    {
echo "File ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded";
}
else
{
echo "Sorry, not happening";

Hi,

I have a script that currently works for uploading images and I have tried to modify it to upload PDF's and DOC's too, but I can't get it to work - it works fine with JPG or GIF.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Code: [Select]
<?php
  include "scripts/connect.php";
$idir = "../documents/";   // Path To Images Directory

if (isset ($_FILES['fupload'])){

$randomd=rand(0000,9999);

//upload the image to tmp directory
$url = $_FILES['fupload']['name'];   // Set $url To Equal The Filename For Later Use 
if ($_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/jpg"
|| $_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/jpeg"
|| $_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/pjpeg"
|| $_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/gif"
|| $_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/pdf"
|| $_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/doc") { 
$file_ext = strrchr($_FILES['fupload']['name'], '.');   // Get The File Extention In The Format Of , For Instance, .jpg, .gif or .php 
$copy = copy($_FILES['fupload']['tmp_name'], "$idir" . "$randomd" . $_FILES['fupload']['name']);   // Move Image From Temporary Location To Permanent Location 
}
}

error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

    if ($_POST['submit']) {

$document = mysql_real_escape_string("$idir" . "$randomd" . $_FILES['fupload']['name']);
$name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['name']);
$description = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['description']);


        $SQL = " INSERT INTO documents";
        $SQL .= " (document, name, description) VALUES ";
        $SQL .= " ('$document', '$name', '$description') ";

        $result = mysql_db_query($db,$SQL,$cid);
        $last=mysql_insert_id();
        
        if (!$result) { echo("ERROR: " . mysql_error() . "\n$SQL\n");    }

Hey all,

I done some research and can only seem to find solutions that involve a java applet in the browser to break up the files into parts, does anyone else know of any other pure php solutions to uploading large files and using chunks?

cheers

Hey Guys,

I need a solution for uploading very large files. As I found PHP has some memory limits.
Is it even possible to upload files with a size of 4GB?

Hey everyone,

I'm having an intermittent problem with my upload script. It works all the time I've tested it both locally and in its live environment, and it works nearly 100% of the time in its live environment during normal usage. I've coded it so it logs any errors as and when they happen, and the log tells me that move_uploaded_file fails so returns false and that $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'] is empty. I think the empty tmp_name is causing move_uploaded_file to fail, but I can't work out the cause of that problem.

This is the code in question:

public function upload() {

if (!empty($_FILES)) {

    $uploadDir = 'uploads';

    $subDir = uniqid();

    $targetPath = $uploadDir . '/' . $subDir;

    $mkDir = mkdir($targetPath);

    $targetFile =  $targetPath . '/' . $_FILES['Filedata']['name'];

    $tempFile = $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'];

    $mvFile = move_uploaded_file($tempFile,$targetFile);

    if(!$mkDir || !$mvFile) {

// Something went wrong

$debug['FILES'] = $_FILES;

$debug['mkdir'] = var_export($mkDir, true);

$debug['mvFile'] = var_export($mvFile, true);

Application_Models_Log::append($debug);

echo '1';

    }else {

echo $targetFile;

    }

}
    }


The server's error_log doesn't contain anything that happened at the time of the error and as I've mentioned, I've been unable to recreate the problem. Does anybody know why the tmp_name would be empty on rare occasions? Or am I going about this in the wrong way? What else could be the problem?

I need to be able to upload multiple files with the use of one form. Right now I have support for one file and it works great. I am stuck on what route I should take for times sake and reliability and functionality. Can I run each file on its own through the PHP script to upload the file; I would have to create a loop to run through the script as many times as there are files. OR Do I create new functionality and add the files through the use of an array?

This is where I am getting the ARRAY idea: http://www.phpeasystep.com/phptu/2.html

This is the PHP code that is submitting the image and uploading to file system. This is what I would use to loop through multiple files if I take the loop method.

<?
header("location: /classifieds/index.php");

echo '<html><center>';

//first lets upload any files that were selected//
$date = date("m/d/y",time());

//check that we have a file
if((!empty($_FILES["uploaded_file"])) && ($_FILES['uploaded_file']['error'] == 0)) {
  
  //Check if the file is JPEG image and it's size is less than 350Kb
  $filename = basename($_FILES['uploaded_file']['name']);

I have a flash application that talks to upload.php

Say I upload a 500mb file; it will obviously take a little while to upload. Will the max_execution_time settings cause this to fail? Its set at 60 right now and the upload is obviously taking longer than 1 minute.

Hi,

I have a strange problem with uploading files. My script was working fine on the test server but since moving to the live server it isn't working. Here is a printout of the FILES variable:

Code: [Select]
Array
(
    [file] => Array
        (
            [name] => filename.ppt
            [type] =>
            [tmp_name] =>
            [error] => 1
            [size] => 0
        )

)
Does anyone know what the problem might be? The error message that comes back is 'Invalid file'.

Code: [Select]
function upload_ppt_files() {

echo 'print_r($_FILES) = '.print_r($_FILES).'<br />';

global $CFG;

if (($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint") && ($_FILES["file"]["size"] > 100))
  {
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
{
$CFG->message = "Error code:". $_FILES["file"]["error"];
manage_ppt_files();
}
  else
{

if (file_exists("../../uploads/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
  {
$CFG->message = $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists.";
manage_ppt_files();
  }
else
  {
  move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "../../uploads/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$CFG->message = "File uploaded successfully.";
manage_ppt_files();
  }
}
  }
else
  {
$CFG->message = "Invalid File.";
manage_ppt_files();
  }

}

I have created a page for users to upload files, but for some reason end users can't access the files. we are getting an access denied page and every time files get uploaded i have to ftp to the site and change the permissions.

is there something i am missing?

Thank you in advance.

When I upload files > 2MB, I get an "Internal Server Error" and in the errors log see "Premature end of script headers:..."  No problem with smaller files. 

I'm running PHP 5.28 and have the following in php5.ini.

magic_quotes_gpc = Off
log_errors = on
display_errors = off
memory_limit = 64M

post_max_size = 8M
upload_max_filesize = 8M
max_input_time = 360
max_execution_time = 360
upload_tmp_dir = amd_temp

The permissions for the upload folder are set to 755. Here's the code:
<?php if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET') { ?>
<form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] ?>"
      enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="document"/>
<input type="submit" value="Send File"/>
</form>
<?php } else { 
    if (isset($_FILES['document']) &&
    ($_FILES['document']['error'] == UPLOAD_ERR_OK)) {
        $newPath = 'updocs/' . basename($_FILES['document']['name']);
        if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['document']['tmp_name'], $newPath)) {
            print "File saved in $newPath";
        } else {
            print "Couldn't move file to $newPath";
        }
    } else {
        print "No valid file uploaded.";
    }
}
?>
Any thoughts on what might be the problem?  Thanks.

i am trying to make a page to upload music to my website and add the information of the songs into a database, but i cannot get php to let me upload a file bigger than 2mb even after i went into the php.ini and changed the max_upload_size and a few others to 99mb.
So i was wondering if i could put my music in a folder on my website and pull the data from the items in the folder and make database entries(probably doubtful) or if i could get some help with getting php to upload bigger files?

thanks,
Adam

Hey Guys,

How are custom Mime Types achieved?  Had a quick search through the forums, and most of the posts relate to mail() questions.

Did a google search and found a completely useless article that told me to edit a non-existent text box.
Quick example, the file type I want is .WAgame, I got this far before I realised what I was doing didn't make sense.  So I looked up mime types, knowing that this file would not exist.

if ($_FILES["file"]["type"] != "file/WAgame")
      {
       naughty!
      }


Help!
Edit:
