Make sure whatever user the _web server_ is running as has access to write to that directory.
With IIS, this is the IUSR_<computer_name> account. > $AppImageDir = Web/Images"; You've got a error in that line, also, hopefully it's just a typo, though. ---John Holmes... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Niklas Lampén" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Php-General" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2003 9:07 AM Subject: RE: [PHP] File upload problem - permission denied On linux you can do it in shell with chmod command.

On my local Windows machine it is usually in IIS. However the whole ..\inetpub\wwwroot\.. directory already has read and write permissions. Apart from PHP I use Cold Fusion. With Cold Fusion I don't have any permission problems... "Niklas lampén" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribió en el mensaje news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Seems that php does not have write access to that directory. Set it right and it should work. Niklas P.S. Tip: It's much quicker to create plain html without echo. Just do it like <form name="blah">, not like <? echo "<form name=\"blah\">"; ?> :) -----Original Message----- From: Frans Bakker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27. helmikuuta 2003 15:43 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] File upload problem - permission denied Hello everybody, I am relatively new to PHP and for quite some days I am trying to get a file upload system going through a standard html form. To test it I use an html page called Test2.php with a form in it with enctype=\"multipart/form-data\". Here is the source code: <?php $AppImageDir = Web/Images"; if (isset($_FILES["ImageFile"])) { move_uploaded_file($_FILES['ImageFile']['tmp_name'], $AppImageDir."/".$_FILES['ImageFile']['name']); } ?> <html> <head> <title>Web site - pages form</title> </head> <body> <?php echo " <form action=\"Test2.php\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\" method=\"post\"> <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"MAX_FILE_SIZE\" value=\"80000\"> <input type=\"file\" name=\"ImageFile\"> <input type=\"submit\" name=\"btnSubmit\" value=\"Upload\"> </form> "; ?> </body> </html> It is a standard straight forward image upload situation. You see that the form directs to itself (action=\"Test2.php\") and on top of the page a simple instruction to see if the file uploads correctly. As far as I can see, this is correct code. Note that the any \\ are to escape "" and further \\ (necesary in echo "" statements). However, when I execute the page, I get the following error messages: Warning: Unable to create '/Web/Images/cartel_feria1.jpg': Permission denied in /Web/Test2.php on line 6 Warning: Unable to move '/tmp/php0jHeNE' to '/Web/Images/cartel_feria1.jpg' in /Web/Test2.php on line 6 It seems to say that I don't have permission to execute a file upload on that page. As you can see by the directory specifications this script runs on a Linux. However, I also tried the same script on a Windows machine, with the corresponding directory specifications of course, and with the same result: permission denied. What is wrong here, where do I set what type of permissions in order to get the file upload to work? By the way, in the php.ini FileUpload is set at yes.
