move_uploaded_f ile problem on Mac

Hi,

I am using Mac os10.3.3, running Apache and PHP 4.3.6
I am just starting to use my local Sites folder to test php for my
sites, but I cannot seem to get move_uploaded_f ile() or copy() to
work.
I assumed it was a file path error, but after trying every possible
file path combination, I dont think it is. I feel I have not done
something to php or apache to handle moving files locally.

Example:
<?PHP
$path = '/Users/myname/Sites/uploads/';
$file_name = $_FILES['file']['name'];
$temp_name = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
$new_path = $path . $file_name;
move_uploaded_f ile($temp_name, $new_path);
?>

Firstly, is there anything I have done wrong with this code?
Has anyone had this problem before?
I appreciate any help.

Try adding the following two lines in the beginning of all your scripts:

error_reporting (E_ALL);
ini_set('displa y_errors', 1);

hi, I would like to upload a file (via a form), then read that (temporary) file and write the contents into a database. The first problem is that open_basedir=/home/CUSTOMER so I can't just read it from /tmp. That's why I used move_uploaded_file() to move the file to /home/CUSTOMER/DOMAIN/tmp/FILENAME: ======================================================

HI all, I have created a script that allows a user to upload a picture. I have an IIS server runing on my own pc but the actual site runs an Apache server. The upload script worked perfectly on my IIS but refuses to work on the Apache. All I know is that the script stops working at move_uploaded_file() function. The warnings echo'ed are: Warning: move_uploaded_file(images/nieuws/TIDEEY%7E1.jpg): failed to open

Hi I am moving a site to a new server, I have been testing it and one of the pages uses move_uploaded_file, but I get a Permission denied. The directory I am moving it to is chomd of 755, if I change it to 777 it does upload but the owner is www-data, but I then can't download it using a FTP client (which I have to do) as it's the wrong owner, so I have to leave the chomd as 755, but

I can validate that the file uploaded because is_uploaded_file() returns true. --------- if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES)) { echo "File ". $_FILES ." uploaded successfully.<br />"; } ------------------------ When I try to move the file using move_uploaded_file it fails. --------------
