upload_tmp_dir

| | | |
so, I'm trying to change the upload temp directory... I've put a
php.ini file in my public_html folder, but it doesn't seem to be
reading it..so I tried this instead
<pre>
<?php
$old =
ini_set('upload_tmp_dir','/home/myusername/public_html/uploads');
echo "old value: $old<br />";
print_r(ini_get_all());
?>
</pre>
and..that isn't changing it either. what could be the problem? |

anything to the temporary directory...this basically means I can't
upload at all. |

| Euhmm, usually this should work on most shared hosts, uploading to temp...
Are you absolutely sure they didn't mean: 'Don't upload files by FTP to the
temp directory, that's for other uses, like a HTTP upload.'?

| Well, if you manage to crash a server with that, those people have
absolutely no idea what they're doing. If it simply doesn't work, but the
server is up, they are (needlessly) strict/paranoid. Hosting is dirt cheap
at present, I agree with Lone Clapper: find a new host, there are lots of
decent hosts out there.
Unfortunaely I cannot give you any hosting adviuce, I usually use local
(dutch) hosts (or my own) for my stuff for better communication (and
ass-kicking capability without buying a planeticket).

Good shared hosting can be had for < $5.00/mo. If your website is
important to you should be willing to pay at least that much.
