I have it working on Windows, Apache, PHP5 A few checks you could make: Are you sure that var_name is the name of the file upload field in your form? Have you set the form enctype to "multipart/form-data"? Have you set the maxfilesize attribute, and does the file you are trying to upload exceed that size?
