file upload not saving file

[zorro]

Hello,
When I upload an image to the server I get the message:

Warning: Only -1 bytes were written, expected to write 547


The server phpinfo lists :


file_uploads On
upload_max_file size 2M
upload_tmp_dir /tmp
PHP Version 4.4.1


so I created a directory named tmp at the root of my "server space" and

gave it chmod 777, but still the same error occurs. This is the result
of print_r($_FILES['myfile']) :


Array ( [name] => 2.jpg [type] => [tmp_name] => [error] => 7 [size] =>
0 )


Error 7 in the PHP manual is :


UPLOAD_ERR_CANT _WRITE
Value: 7; Failed to write file to disk. Introduced in PHP 5.1.0.


Any ideas what is wrong?

Try using the full path name of /tmp.

I think php is trying to write to the tmp dir in the root directory of
the hard drive not the tmp dir in your home directory

Re: file upload not saving file

yup, it was a path thing during move_uploaded_f ile...

I had this:

@move_uploaded_ file($_FILES['picture']['tmp_name'],
$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_R OOT"] . APP_PATH . "pictures/" . $newname);

then removing $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_R OOT"] . APP_PATH got it working
