Unable to move etc. problems

[sfumato]

Okay,

Yesterday I wrote with completely different problems. I uninstalled and reinstalled CPG just to see what would happen. Now I am getting less errors than before, but I can still not upload. The interesting thing is the error messages I receive now are completely different than yesterday's (before uninstall etc.).

When trying to upload I get the following error:

Impossible to move orange.jpg to albums/userpics/ !

File: /home/bullpenc/public_html/gallery/db_input.php - Line: 259


Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move '/tmp/phpKPsjFK' to 'albums/userpics/orange.jpg' in /home/bullpenc/public_html/gallery/db_input.php on line 258


The debug script shows this:

PS- I have tried with the appropriate folders CHMODed 777 and 755.

Thanks,

maybe it's a safe mode issue - try enabling silly_safe_mode (refer to documentation). Maybe you have to create a temporary folder on your webspace...

I have set SILLY_SAFE_MODE but am having the same problem.

Where would the tmp folder be or need to be?

Thanks for the help.

see http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=2403.0

This usually occurs when the server configuration has made each website root.  If the website does not have a /temp or /tmp folder, PHP upload functions cannot work properly.  You are advised to create a /temp or /tmp folder to resolve this issue.  Yahoo Business hosting is a good example of where this configuration is used.

create the tmp folder in the website root

Thanks for the help, but no dice. I made a tmp folder, but I get the same message:

Impossible to move grierwheel.jpg to albums/userpics/ !

File: /home/bullpenc/public_html/gallery/db_input.php - Line: 259


Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move '/tmp/phpNZMlIN' to 'albums/userpics/grierwheel.jpg' in /home/bullpenc/public_html/gallery/db_input.php on line 258




Sorry to keep at this, but I know not what I do.

Anyone got advice?

Write a basic upload script to test move_uploaded_files ability to get the files out of the tmp folder.  If you have set permissions correctly in Coppermine, then this is a PHP setup problem.  (move_uploaded_files is a built in PHP function)

[sfumato]

Makes sense. Just wish I knew how to do it. Not really a PHP guru here. I know a little, but just enough to hurt me.

Any advice on writing the test script?


Thanks,

Bryan
