Problems: fle uploading vs temp path.

Hi,originally this script
runs well on my local machine Apache+php+Mysql. But
once I uploaded it to my free
website,it
became useless.


When I executed the following script,
I
got the following errors:

Warning: fopen("", "r") - No such
file
or directory in

C:webserverwebservermanagergigiclubuploadtest.php on
lin
e 7

Warning: fread(): supplied argument
is
not a valid File-Handle resource in

C:webserverwebservermanagergigiclubuploadtest.php on
lin
e 7

My script


---------------------------uploadtest.php-------------------

---------------



<?php require('config.php'); ?>
<?
//uploadtest.php
global $PHP_SELF,$yourname,$image;

if($submit){
$img = addslashes(fread(fopen($image,
"r"), filesize($image)));
$query="insert into mytable
values('$yourname','$img')";

$result=mysql_db_query("mydatabase",$query);
if($result)
print("Thank you $yourname,your image
file is successfully uploaded");
else
print("Couldn't upload your image
file.");
}

else {
print("
<form enctype=multipart/form-data
action=$PHP_SELF method=post>
<table><tr><td>Your name<input
name=yourname></td></tr>
<tr><td>Your image file<input
type=file
name=image><input type=submit
name=submit

value=submit></td></tr></table></form>");
}
?>

My config.php contains all the info
needed connecting to MySQL
database(host,username,password..)

And my sql script is as followed:

create table mytable(yourname
varchar(40),image blob);


My problem is that when the fopen /
fread command
looks for the tmp folder - it can`t
find
it. I have even tried adding
$image =
str_replace("\\","\",$image); (but still not working)
I think there should be some problems
with this line:
$img = addslashes(fread(fopen($image,
"r"), filesize($image)));


Please help. Thank you.

as you see the variable $image can not be found and used on your "fopen" function to handle the file. If fopen function could get the variable, it should got some errors like follows:

is the folder you are trying to grab info out of chmod'd correctly?

That is a typical error that i received a couple of times, when it was not 755 or 777.

It all depends on what server you are running on to, so normally the (r) or (w) on some systems are basically useless...to combat it, you can try this command
chmod("thisfile.txt",777)

of course, FTPing to the file, and using the CHMOD mode works much better.

(something like that anyways
