PHP - 777 Upload Permission Problem

I am getting this error Warning: ftp_put() [function.ftp-put]: Can't open that file: Permission denied in /home/chris/public_html/site-name/wp-content/setup.php on line 62

Code: [Select]
$conn_id = ftp_connect($host, 21) or die ("Cannot connect to host");
  ftp_login($conn_id, $usr, $pwd) or die("Cannot login");

// turn on passive mode transfers (some servers need this)
// ftp_pasv ($conn_id, true);

  $upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $file[0], $file[1], FTP_ASCII);

  print (!$upload) ? die('Cannot upload') : 'Upload complete';
  print "\n";

The permissions to the file is 0644, if I change it to 0777 ftp_put complains and says the file is not found.

How can I ftp this file? What is going on?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi.  I'm using SimpleImage.php to do some basic image manipulation.  The code is here http://www.white-hat-web-design.co.uk/articles/php-image-resizing.php, but I don't think all the details are important.  Basically, I'm trying to read and image and save it with a different name.  I'm really new with this stuff, so it's probably something simple.

Anyway, here is the code throwing the error,

$image_info = getimagesize($filename);

where $filename is a string containing the path to the image I want to load, e.g. $filename="images/picture.jpg";  It's throwing a "Read Error!"
I know that the path is correct.  In fact I first check if the file is there using is_file($filename); and it returns true.  I'm guessing that maybe php does not have "permission" to read this file.  The permissions for the file are
-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data 80211 2011-04-20 16:19 picture.jpg

Looks like everyone has "read" permission, so I don't see what the problem is.  Also, the permissions of the folder and all parent folders are 777.  Not sure what the problem is.  I might be way off by guessing that it is a permissions problem.

Any help would be great.  Thanks.

Also, I was wondering if there is a way for this forum to email me whenever there is a reply to my posts.  I can't seem to find the option anywhere.

I have a PHP web system that store in a windows server. In the system, there is a function for user to upload files to another server (Shared server in Unix).

When i try to upload a file, it gives warning:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(\\unixserver/sharedfolder/upload/test.txt) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\wamp\www\upload\index.php on line 40

For your information, my username has been assigned in xxx's group that has access to read and write on that folder. Besides, i'm able to open,create and delete files on that folder's server manually (samba).

The safe mode setting is off.

Does anybody has any idea why this thing happen?

Hey Guys, can somebody please have alook at my code, when I don't have the mysql stuff in it works not problem, when I add the mysql it does not want to upload the file.

Thanks


Code: [Select]

<?php

// Where the file is going to be placed 
$target_path = "../uploads/";

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']); 

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {

{
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","******", "*******");
if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

mysql_select_db("******", $con);

mysql_query("INSERT INTO table (sname, smonth, sday, syear, sdload)
VALUES ('$sname', '$smonth', '$sday', '$syear', '$fileupload')");

mysql_close($con);

echo "Successful<BR/>";
echo "<a href=index2.php>Return to admin section</a>";
}
} else{
    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}

?>

When I upload files larger than appx 18M it says that the file was uploaded but it isnt. Is there snippet of code that i could put in the script to show me the upload error ? Or does anyone know what could be causing this. My php.ini settings are as follows

max upload size = 50M
max post size = 100M
execution time = 2400
input time = 2400

I thought initially maybe it was timing out so i increased the input and the execution time value. But its still doing the same thing.

I have use apache server with PHP installed on it,i created one directory through php coding it get created but it has permission ( drwxr-sr-x 3 www-data www-data   4096 Feb 26 04:54 Merchantid_30)

my other directories has ubuntu:ubuntu permission,

I want to write on my directory but www-data wont allow me to write on it,giving 777 permission through chmod is risky,

can i create directory through php but its default permission is set to be ubuntu:ubuntu instead of www-data ?

what changes i need to do in coding?

 

I have a page for image uploads and I just realized it will only work if a user already has on picture uploaded.
If they don't it won't work.
The ones that do fail some photos anyway which is probably that they don't pass the image check but when I put echoes in there to trace what happens any user with an empty gallery can't upload a photo because the page says there is no file in the $_FILES['image']['name'] variable.

Here are the initial conditions and the form (leaving out the image processing etc since that works):
Code: [Select]
if (!isset($_SESSION['user']))
die("<br /><br /> You need to log in to view this page");

$user = sanitizeString($_SESSION['user']);
$view = sanitizeString($_GET['view']);
$dir = './grafik/users/'.$user.'/big/';
$files = scandir($dir);
$len = count($files);
$nr= $len-1;
$maxPhotos = 8;

if ($view == $user) {
echo "view is user";
if(!file_exists("grafik/users/$user")) {
mkdir("grafik/users/$user");
mkdir("grafik/users/$user/big/");}
}

if (!isset($_FILES['image']['name']))
    echo "There is no file <br />$dir - $user - $nr";
if (isset($_FILES['image']['name'])) {
echo "<br />...is a file <br />$dir - $user - $nr";
$photoName="$dir$user$nr.jpg";
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], $photoName);
$typeok = TRUE;

....


<form method='post' action='gallery.php?view=$user' enctype='multipart/form-data'>
Upload another photo: <br /> Max $maxPhotos allowed, max filesize 2Mb <br />
<input type='file' name='image' size='10' /><br />
<input type='submit' value='Upload' />
</form>

I can't see why it wouldn't let me but I have a feeling someone here knows why.

Hi everybody,

I have recently change to a new server, and have some problem with a script for uploading files on my new server.
Script is an old which I have updated with new php command, <? not accepted in new server.

Scripts shall upload picture to folder in server and write information to database

From form script I am saving my upload

Code: [Select]
<input type="hidden" name="Mode" value="EditMapProperty" />
<input type="hidden" name="Old_Map" value="<?php echo $Property->Get_Map();?>" />
In my php script I do

elseif($Mode=="EditMapProperty"):  $Map_name = $HTTP_POST_FILES['Map']['name'];  $Property=new Property($PropertyID);  $ReferenceNo=$Property->Get_ReferenceNo();  if($Map!=""): $DeleteMap=$Dir_MapProperty_Admin."".$Property->Get_Map();   @unlink($DeleteMap); endif;  if($Map_name==""):    $Map=$Old_Map;  else:    copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['Map']['tmp_name'],    $Dir_MapProperty_Admin."".$ReferenceNo."-".$Map_name);    $Map=$ReferenceNo."-".$Map_name;  endif;     $Property->EditMap($Map);  //Update database information             echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=$Redirect2?p=property_details&PropertyID=$PropertyID\">";   ()
   
Can any help if there are any PHP problem in this coding.

Kind Regards
Tom

$li2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($lastimage2);

if ($page=="P8"&$view>0)
   {
   echo "<table class=roung bgcolor='#000000'><tr><TD><img src=uploaded/$li2[picname] width='760' height='540'></td></tr></table>";
   include 'picclicks.php';
   echo "<tr><td>Views: $clicks2 </td></tr>";
   
   }
   else
   {

   {
      if ($type =="image/jpeg")
         {
         include 'connect.inc';
         move_uploaded_file($temp,"uploaded/".$name);
         mysql_query("INSERT INTO images VALUES('','$name','','$username','$date','0','0','0','0','0','0','0','0')");

Hello

Im trying to upload mp3s from a form.

In the form I have the MAX_FILE_SIZE set at 90000000 (so big to make sure it wasn't my maths). I have checked with phpinfo() and the max upload is set at 8mb. The mp3s will be between 3-4mb in size.

I have uploaded small mp3's successfully (440k) so i know the script is working fine, however when i try to upload one at around 3mb it fails, even tried different file sizes in the same ball park size. I suspect the server is blocking them.

Any ideas on a fix?

Thank you. No script posted as i say its all working.

hello everyone....i am new for this script, hope u guys able to help me. Thank you in advance!

im using xampp for localhost, all .php file i place it in xampp\htdocs ( i create a uploads folder outside the htdocs, c:\xampp\uploads)

Hi,

I can't believe after more then a year I'm stuck with the simplest upload script.

Here's my code:

<?php

if( isset($_POST['upload']) ){

$uploaddir = "uploads/";
$uploadfile = $uploaddir.$_FILES['fileupload']['name'];

if( move_uploaded_file($_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile) ){

echo "Upload OK!";

}else{

echo "Upload FAILED!!!";

}

}else{

?>

<form action="<?php $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" name="upload" method="post">

<input type="file" name="fileupload" />
<input type="submit" name="upload" value="upload" />

</form>

<?php

}

?>

this is the simplest php upload script that you can find, though the least secure one (it's for a local pc project).
When I try to upload any file it gets to my else statement.

Anyone an idea why? I don't see it

Thanks!

Hi Guys

I have this PHP Upload Scripts below which uploads file of customers into the customers folder and at the same time inserts the file path into the database.

The problems is for name like O'hare or O'neil its uploads into the customers folder but does not insert the file path into the database - probably because of the " ' " apostrophe

From the code below is there anyway I can deal with this issue?  Thanks alot

Code: [Select]
<?php 
//This php block of code will takecare of inserting the upload variables into the db

if(isset($_POST['submitbutton'])) {

$manager= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
$upload =  $_FILES['upload']['name'];

I am working on a file upload that stores the image in the database. my upload field is this:
Code: [Select]
<input type="file" name="image1[]" />
and my php to process the file and upload it is this:
$maxsize = 100000;

if(is_uploaded_file($_FILES['image1']['tmp_name'])) {

        //check the file is less than the maximum file size
        if($_FILES['image1']['size'] < $maxsize)
            {
         //prepare the image for insertion
        $imgData =addslashes(file_get_contents($_FILES['image1']['tmp_name']));
        $imgData = addslashes($_FILES['image1']);

         //get the image info..
          $size = getimagesize($_FILES['image1']['tmp_name']);

          $id = $name.'_'.$SKU;

         //our sql query
        $sql = "INSERT INTO Images
                ( imageID , Type ,Image, Size, FileName, DateAdded, Category, SKU. Description)
                VALUES
                ('".$id."', '".$size['mime']."', '".$imgData."', '".$size[3]."', '".$_FILES['image1']['name']."', NOW(), Fabric, '".$SKU."', '".$desc."'";

         echo $sql;
        // insert the image
        if(!mysql_query($sql)) {
            echo 'Unable to upload file';
            
        }
     }
    }
    else {
         // if the file is not less than the maximum allowed, print an error
         echo
          '<div>File exceeds the Maximum File limit</div>
          <div>Maximum File limit is '.$maxsize.'</div>
          <div>File '.$_FILES['image1']['name'].' is '.$_FILES['image1']['size'].' bytes</div>
          <hr />';
         } 

at first the sql just wouldn't work. Now I get this error every time for some reason

Quote

File exceeds the Maximum File limit
Maximum File limit is 100000
File Array is Array bytes


which seems odd because it does not even return the file size or name correctly.
