file upload permission error

[wadro21]

i am trying to write a php uploader for a site and keep getting this error:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(uploads61877494_tp.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/mysite/public_html/login/upload.php on line 5
 
Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phpKlOJBh' to 'uploads61877494_tp.jpg' in /home/mysite/public_html/login/upload.php on line 5
 

I can run it fine on my local machine but when i upload it to the webserver it errors out. here is some example code:

<?php 
// Connects to Database 
mysql_connect("localhost", "__MUNGED__", "__MUNGED__") or die(mysql_error()); 
mysql_select_db("mysite_admin") or die(mysql_error());; 
 
//checks cookies to make sure they are logged in 
if(isset($_COOKIE['ID_my_cookie'])) 
{ 
$username = $_COOKIE['ID_my_cookie']; 
$pass = $_COOKIE['Key_my_cookie']; 
$check = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username'")or die(mysql_error()); 
while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $check )) 
{ 
 
//if the cookie has the wrong password, they are taken to the login page 
if ($pass != $info['password']) 
{ header("Location: login.php"); 
} 
 
//otherwise they are shown the admin area 
else 
{
echo "Admin Area<p>"; 
echo "<a href=logout.php>Logout</a>";
?>
 
<fieldset>
   <legend>File Upload</legend>
   <p>
 
   <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="upload.php" method="POST">
Please choose a file: <input name="uploaded" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form> 
 
   </p>
   </fieldset>
?>
 
upload.php
<?php 
$target = "uploads"; 
$target = $target . basename( $_FILES['uploaded']['name']) ; 
$ok=1; 
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded']['tmp_name'], $target)) 
{
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded";
} 
else {
echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.";
}
 
if ($uploaded_size > 350000)
{
 
 
echo "Your file is too large.<br>"; 
$ok=0;
} 
?>

Hi.

This is not a problem with your code. This happens because you do not have permission to access the files you are trying to move.

Make sure you edit the permission on the folder you are moving your file into so that your script can write into it.

Also, use [code] tags when posting code. It is barely readable without them.
