Hi all, I have some problems for upload file script. The script generated a lot of permission denied error msg. I have changed the upload dir and its parent dir into 777. I am quite sure I did the permission settings right. I have attached the error msg and my testing source code with this email Anyone can help me . Thanks! yours, Michael My Error Msg: Warning: move_uploaded_file(upload_files/Blue hills.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/html/simple_upload.php on line 47 Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phpvdnBbQ' to 'upload_files/Blue hills.jpg' in /var/www/html/simple_upload.php on line 47 Somthing is wrong with uploading a file.
