PHP File Upload, files disappearing from /tmp before move_uploaded_files
- by Bowen
Hi,
I have a very basic upload script, probably lifted straight off the php.net/move_upload_files function page.
move_uploaded_file() is failed because it cannot find the tmp file in the tmp folder. But I KNOW that it is being put there, but is removed before move_upload_file() can deal with it in my script. I know it is being put there since I can see a file in there when a large file is being posted to the server.
Also $_FILEScontains correct details for the file I have just uploaded.
Had anyone have any idea why the temporary file is being removed from /tmp before I have a chance to handle it?
Here is the basic code that I am using.
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $upload_file))
{
$result['error'] = 'false';
$result['file_loc'] = $upload_file;
}
else
{
$result['error'] = 'true';
}
The output of print_r($_FILES) looks like
[userfile] => Array
(
[name] => switchsolo.png
[type] => image/png
[tmp_name] => /tmp/phpIyKRl5
[error] => 0
[size] => 6690
)
But /tmp/phpIyKRl5 simply isn't there.
