Upload working, but sending to wrong directory.

Upload working, but sending to wrong directory.

I've got an upload form working and the file is getting saved on the server, but the process isn't saving the file in the defined directory.

php:
'UploadFolder' => "../Gallery".$row_getGalleries['gallery_id']  ."/",



I've tried this as well...

php:
'UploadFolder' => "../".$row_getGalleries['directory']  ."/",



Desired directory example ../Gallery3/

Instead of actually uploading to this directory, the process sends it to ../
totally missing the directory stated.

Any suggestions?

Have you tried using a site relative path with a slash in front of it like this:

php:
'UploadFolder' => "/Gallery".$row_getGalleries['gallery_id']  ."/",



You would of course need to ensure that this folder with the gallery id appended exists in the site before you could upload to it. Are the files being uploaded to the root of your site?

I tried what you suggested and nothing uploaded at all...

I tried the following and a ../Gallery directory was created and the files were stored in this new directory.

php:
'UploadFolder' => "../Gallery".$row_getGalleries['gallery_id']  ."/",



Progress I guess...but the problem is the directory creation completely omitted the trailing gallery_id number. I need the script to create a directory that includes the ID number from the query as part of the new directory.

The directory can either be created by the upload or I can create the directory prior to the upload, it makes no difference to me. I can perform which ever action is required, I just can't seem to get the upload to function the way the code is written.

Checking back in today, just looking for some additional advice, the suggestion from yesterday was not helpful.

Thanks for the ticket. I have attached some screenshots for you to better explain what's going on.
I included a copy of the galleryupload.php in my original message thread.
