Are you checking the permissions on both the folder you want to copy the uploaded file to and the temp directory that it needs to go to first?

Not to but in, but you might want to check on your version. www.php.net published an advisory on a possible flaw on that very issue: http://www.php.net/release_4_1_2_win32.php http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/012002.html Leif K-Brooks wrote: > I have a script that allows the user to upload a file.

That'd depend upon who owns the directory and what user your web server is running as. If the folder, or directory is owned by the user the server is running as then the permissions should be OK. Due to your error message I'd guess they don't have write access. Permissions of 766 might be enough. Although I'd make sure that the directory is owned by the user the server is running as and then make it 700. You're in a non-Windows environment - yes ?? Jim.
