File Upload not working for dynamic UploadFolder name

File Upload not working for dynamic UploadFolder name

I have an issue with getting the file to upload once I change the Upload to a dynamic path.

from
'UploadFolder' => "../../eCart/images/",
to
'UploadFolder' => "".($WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url")) ."",

the url in the database field is is https://www.mywebsitename.com/eCart/images/

I've tried several ways but it will not upload the file, although it will update the name.

?

The folder path can't be a URL. It has to be a file path.

If it will always begin with: https://www.mywebsitename.com then you could probably use something like:

'UploadFolder' => "".str_replace("https://www.mywebsitename.com","../..",$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url")) ."",

I tried that (I see that should work theoritacally). I also tried (after changing in the db the prod_url to 'eCart/

'UploadFolder' => "../../" . $WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url") . "images/" ,

but no go until I remove the dynamic part, then it always works going to any folder.

Here's the first 30 lines of code:

<?php require_once('../../Connections/convacc_cx.php'); ?>
<?php require_once('../../webassist/mysqli/rsobj.php'); ?>
<?php require_once("../../webassist/file_manipulation/helperphp.php"); ?>
<?php require_once('../../webassist/mysqli/queryobj.php'); ?>
<?php
$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update = new WA_MySQLi_RS("WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update",$convacc_cx,1);
$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->setQuery("SELECT * FROM cac_prod_subcategory_NEW WHERE cac_prod_subcategory_NEW.prod_id = ?");
$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->bindParam("i", "".($_GET['prod_id']) ."", "-1"); //Paramprod_id
$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->execute();?>
<?php
// WA_UploadResult1 Params Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params = array();
// WA_UploadResult1_1 Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params["WA_UploadResult1_1"] = array(
'UploadFolder' => "".str_replace("https://","../..",$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url")) ."images/",
'FileName' => "[FileName]",
'DefaultFileName' => "".($WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_img")) ."",
'ResizeType' => "0",
'ResizeWidth' => "0",
'ResizeHeight' => "0",
'ResizeFillColor' => "#FFFFFF" );
// WA_UploadResult1_1 End
// WA_UploadResult1 Params End
?>
<?php
WA_DFP_SetupUploadStatusStruct("WA_UploadResult1");
if(isset($_POST["Update"]) || isset($_POST["Update_x"])){
WA_DFP_UploadFiles("WA_UploadResult1", "prod_img", "0", "", "true", $WA_UploadResult1_Params);
}
?>

What is your form action set to?

Try adding this code right after the recordset code:

php:
<?php

if (isset($_POST["Update"])) {
  die(
"Prod URL:" str_replace("https://yourdomain.com","../..",$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url")) ."images/");
}
?>



That will let you see the value that is being set so you can adjust and correct it more easily.

I got the correct path:

Prod URL:eCart/images/

My form is set as:

<form class="Basic_Default" id="Update_Basic_Default" name="Update_Basic_Default" method="post" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data">

I think the correct path should be: "../../eCart/images/"

I was playing around with it the path in the db. My latest one is this but no go:

<?php
if (isset($_POST["Update"])) {
die("Prod URL:" . str_replace("https://com","../..",$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url")) ."images/");
}
?>
<?php
// WA_UploadResult1 Params Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params = array();
// WA_UploadResult1_1 Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params["WA_UploadResult1_1"] = array(
'UploadFolder' => "".str_replace("https://.com","/../..",$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url")) ."images/",
'FileName' => "[FileName]",
'DefaultFileName' => "".($WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_img")) ."",
'ResizeType' => "0",
'ResizeWidth' => "0",
'ResizeHeight' => "0",
'ResizeFillColor' => "#FFFFFF" );
// WA_UploadResult1_1 End
// WA_UploadResult1 Params End
?>

and the path in the db is set to:

https://.com/eCart/

It's returning:

Prod URL:https://.com/eCart/images/

should it be returning: ../../eCart/images/ ?

Maybe try:

die("Prod URL:" . str_replace("https://yourdomain.com","../..",$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url",false)) ."images/");

<?php
// WA_UploadResult1 Params Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params = array();
// WA_UploadResult1_1 Start
$WA_UploadResult1_Params["WA_UploadResult1_1"] = array(
'UploadFolder' => "".str_replace("https:/.com","../..",$WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_url")) ."images/",
'FileName' => "[FileName]",
'DefaultFileName' => "".($WADAcac_prod_subcategory_NEW_update->getColumnVal("prod_img")) ."",
'ResizeType' => "0",
'ResizeWidth' => "0",
'ResizeHeight' => "0",
'ResizeFillColor' => "#FFFFFF" );
// WA_UploadResult1_1 End
// WA_UploadResult1 Params End
