File upload problem

Hi all,

I have a simple page with a one form and one file field, applied the upload files behavior with the default settings, but the upload folder field always will be "/" (in the parameters array is: 'UploadFolder' => "",). Is it releated to the site root or the current file? What is the default file field for? I also inserted a debug info dynamic text to see what is the problem, this is the result after the submit:

Status object: WA_UploadResult1
statusCode : 0
errorMessage : No file uploaded
clientFileName :
fileExtension :
serverFileName :
serverSimpleFileName :
serverDirectory :
contentType :
fileWasOverwritten :
fileWasSkipped :
fileWasRenamed :
fileSize : -1
isImage :
imageWidth : -1
imageHeight : -1
WA_UploadResult1_1:
clientFileName :
fileExtension :
serverFileName :
serverSimpleFileName :
serverDirectory :
contentType :
fileSize : -1
imageWidth : -1
imageHeight : -1
statusCode : 0
errorMessage : No file uploaded

Any ideas?

Thx!
G

The path to the folder is a relative one, you can use a site relative path with a slash in it though if you need to. The default file field is for a default file, that is a file that will be used in place of the uploaded file if there is none or it fails.

The debug info is telling you that the file upload did not occur. What have you set your trigger to be and how are you testing the page? Please post back with this info and the page in question so we can take a look.

I attached the configuration.

Link: kep_new.php

The upload folder is now "/", so the current folder. Perrmissons are 777 now.

Do you have error reporting enabled on your server? If not add in these lines of code to the top of the page:

php:
<?php 

error_reporting
(E_ALL); 
ini_set('display_errors','on'); 
?>



With this on your page it should let you know if some other error is occurring. It seems like there might be an error occurring on the script level, maybe a permissions issue for moving the uploaded file. If you have the folder set to 777 then there should not be any permissions issue with that folder at least. Please post back with the info after adding this to your page and also include the page in question in a zip archive so that we can examine it.

Thanks for your help, its almost working now...

If I put the same file to the root of the site and change the links
(<?php require_once("../webassist/file_manipulation/helperphp.php"); ?> and the upload folder), its working fine...
Before that, the file was in the admin folder, the require_once link as above.

I have tried to copy the file_manipulation folder to the admin folder, changed the links, but not working.

Any idea?

It sounds like you have made some progress on this. It should not matter where you are applying the upload, so long as the paths to the folders are correct it should work out. You should be able to use the same page as you get a successful result with in your root in the admin folder, then just update the paths so they are pointing to the files correctly.

The include code with the ../ in the front of it is looking the the parent directory. So if your admin folder is in the root of your site and so is the webassist folder the paths for the includes in the pages that are in the admin folder should have the ../ in them. So long as the files are in the location specified it should work for you.

Please post back with more details about what you are experiencing with this after making the updates to the paths and uploading the folders. If you continue to have troubles with this let us know and I will open a ticket for you.
