Upload permissions

cfunkho · 08-29-2002, 11:55 PM

I have some PHP code that allows users to upload files to the web server from their browser. The code works fine on my machine at home, but does not work on the web server.

So I figure it's a permissions problem, and I chmod 777 the folder where the uploaded files are going. Still nothing.

So my question is, are there other settings within Linux or Apache that could be set to prohibit file uploads from the Internet?

Thanks,
Chris Funkhouser

Don't know if this would affect it but what is the umask setting on the files ?? You can try setting the default umask and test it out. Not sure though if this will work though.

Look at your error_log, and you should see what the problem is there. You may have wrong path information, check all your full server paths to make sure it is trying to upload to the correct directory. If your error_log has an 'open_base_dir' error, you need to add a .conf file with your path information in it. ('domain/conf/vhosts.conf' on a shared server)
