move_uploaded_file() Unable to move file from tmp to dir
Look into the below case:
$file_tmp = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
$file_name = $_FILES['file']['name'];
$file_destination = 'upload/' . $file_name;
move_uploaded_file($file_tmp, $file_destination);
In the above code snippet, I have used $_FILES
array with the name of the input field that is “file” to get the name and temporary name of the uploaded file.
Check the scenario that cause the error:
Make sure you have created folder where you want to move your file.
Check for the folder permission, is it writable or not. Use chmod() to modify permission.
See if your target path URL is properly created or not. You can use dirname(__FILE__) to get the absolute path. To get current working directory, use getcwd().
Try this:
$destination_path = getcwd().DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;
$target_path = $destination_path . basename( $_FILES["profpic"]["name"]);
@move_uploaded_file($_FILES['profpic']['tmp_name'], $target_path)
