POSWFUpload image upload fails on PHP with 'Partial File Uploaded'
text
Body
copied!<p>Okay, so this is a tough one, I've spent hours looking for a solution/problem. I'm using SWFUpload to upload images without reloading the page (with a fancy progressbar too), this works fine when I'm on localhost (Wamp server), but it goes nuts when I try to do so on my real linux server (which is the only possible flag as far as I could see), it's running Apache2 and PHP5. As I said the front-end is fine (apart maybe from the fact it's flash). The back-end code is as follows:</p> <p>SWFUpload_settings.js</p> <pre><code>var swfu_settings ={upload_url : "upload.php", flash_url : "flash/swfupload.swf", button_placeholder_id : "upload_flash", file_size_limit : "2 MB", file_types : "*.gif;*.jpg;*.png", file_post_name : "Filedata", file_queue_limit : 1, post_params : { "PHPSESSID" : getCookie() }, upload_start_handler : upload_start, upload_error_handler : upload_error, upload_complete_handler : upload_complete, upload_progress_handler : upload_progress, file_queued_handler : file_queued, button_disabled : false, button_width : 120, button_height : 22, button_text : '<div class="adm_upload">Select image</div>', button_text_style : '.adm_upload{color:#ff0000;}' }; </code></pre> <p>upload.php</p> <pre><code>function manageUpload(){ if( isset($_FILES['Filedata']) ){ $dest_dir = $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]."/images/products"; $destination = $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]."/images/products/" . $_FILES['Filedata']['name']; if( is_dir($dest_dir) ){ if( is_writable($dest_dir) ){ if( !move_uploaded_file($_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'], $destination ) ){ $html_body = '<h1>File upload error!</h1>'; switch ($_FILES['Filedata']['error']) { case 1: $html_body .= 'The file is bigger than this PHP installation allows'; break; case 2: $html_body .= 'The file is bigger than this form allows'; break; case 3: $html_body .= 'Only part of the file was uploaded'; break; case 4: $html_body .= 'No file was uploaded'; break; default: $html_body .= 'unknown errror'; } echo ($html_body); } } else{ echo "Says it's not writable: ".$dest_dir; } } else{//not a directory? echo "Says it's not a directory:".$dest_dir; } } else{ echo "No file POSTED.\n"; } } </code></pre> <p>The only error that I get is from $_FILES['Filedata']['error'] = 3, 'Only part of the file was uploaded'. The destination directory does have 777 permission and you can see I made the required checks. It simply will not work, I have no idea why. Also, the files I tried uploading had no spaces in the filename, so that shouldn't fit under the issue 206 with SWFUpload.</p> <p>As far as I can tell it can be either due to the front-end SWFUpload or back-end server configuration. Please help.</p> <p>P.S. no need to mention security, this is only allowed to be used by the server admin with external access anyhow, plus there's the front-end limitation on the files he can select (images). There was no point securing it further.</p>
