file upload not working

I get these warnings when I try to upload a file to my server:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/Library/WebServer/Documents/IndyPlacesc/includes/../docs/4f5f0cad0eaef32d7cf2621d00d3943a_tmp.pdf): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /Library/WebServer/Documents/IndyPlacesc/webassist/file_manipulation/helperphp.php on line 157

Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move '/private/var/tmp/phpc1QqfD' to '/Library/WebServer/Documents/IndyPlacesc/includes/../docs/4f5f0cad0eaef32d7cf2621d00d3943a_tmp.pdf' in /Library/WebServer/Documents/IndyPlacesc/webassist/file_manipulation/helperphp.php on line 157

What is causing these and how doI fix this?

(I'm attaching the webapge and the helperphp.php WebAssist support file)

Can I get FTP access and a url to reproduce? It looks like a folder permissions issue, but it could be a path issue in general. It looks like the code isn't handling the ../ in the upload path properly. You could probably fix it by just using a root relative path on line 14 like:

'UploadFolder' => "/docs/",

But you may have to adjust the permissions on the docs folder to give it read/write privileges.

file upload not working

I tried your suggested path change (/docs/) but the file does NOT upload and I still get these warnings:

Warning: mkdir(): Permission denied in /Library/WebServer/Documents/IndyPlacesc/webassist/file_manipulation/helperphp.php on line 31

Warning: mkdir(): No such file or directory in /Library/WebServer/Documents/IndyPlacesc/webassist/file_manipulation/helperphp.php on line 31

My upload folder 'docs' and all of its file have 777 file permissions assigned. I'm including the FTP acces and login credentials in the private message.

You didn't have the webassist/file_manipulation folder on the server.... I uploaded my local version and the upload seems to work.

Maybe you had an older version of that file and that was causing the issue? Reinstall the latest version of DataBridge to make sure that those files are up to date, or just download the one I uploaded.
