File upload not working

Thread began 11/22/2022 8:55 am by tmcbinc99963 | Last modified 12/08/2022 2:02 pm by Ray Borduin | 213 views | 18 replies |

File upload not working

Using web assist products, I've created a product update page. This page has a file upload that allows users to upload a testimonial for a specific product. When a new file is selected for upload, the filename appears in the text box correctly. However, after uploading, the page refreshes to show the same filename as before. And looking at the website, the old testimonial still appears.

The form data looks correct in the source code. I've included the compressed update.php file and will add viewing info in the private message area.

Please let me know if you need anything further.

It doesn't look like you are updating the database with the new file name after it is uploaded. What table and column are you trying to save the new file in? You probably just have to go into the Update server behavior and bind the column to update it with the newly uploaded file. It looks like you are only updating the columns: "LubeTestim_ID|LubeFK_ID|TestCom_ID|TestProd_ID" and you need to also update: "testim_doc"

Attached are screen shots of the server behavior (Wizard for TestimFile) and Binding for same.

The Testimonials (testim_doc) and Prod_Lube_testimonials (LubeTestimID) both need to be updated, which are in two related tables.

I believe you helped me with this one before, but has since stopped working correctly. Out of my league here.

That is the file upload code. That part is working. It is the Database Update server behavior that hasn't been updated to save the value of the uploaded file in the database.

Attached are screen shots of the Update Server Behavior. Will this update the records in both tables?

There's also an update multiple records server behavior, but it's for 'prodtype'.

Do I need to create an 'update multiple records server behavior to update both tables?

What column in what table do you want the file name to be updated in? I imagine it is only one table and one update that has to be changed. I'm afraid I don't know enough about your application and database structure to tell you more than that. I would imagine it is only one table.

Attached is a pdf file indicating the tables and columns that need updating.

On file upload, the filename needs to update in the Testimonials table, and the ID from that table is used to update a Prod_Lube_testimonials table.

I can send login credentials for access to the admin site and database if that would help.

Your file upload default value is set to:

$row_TestimCo['testim_doc']

But then your update server behavior on lines 262-302 only updates the columns: "LubeTestim_ID|LubeFK_ID|TestCom_ID|TestProd_ID";

It seems you would just have to add the "testim_doc" column to that update server behavior.

I'm getting the following error message when I upload a new testimonial file:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE `ProdLubeTestim_ID`=2' at line 1

Please attach the latest version of the .php page you are working on that has the error so I can look at the code.
