just initially, and this might be a typo but $FilePath = "http://localhost:8888/HarrisAutomate/output/WebImagesHiRes/$ImageName"; //$BackupPath = "http://localhost:8888/HarrisAutomate/WebImagesHiRes/output/backup/"; $FilePath has an /output/ that $BackupPath doesn't. Also, make sure you don't have safe_mode or open_basedir restricting the files php can see, although I'm reasonably sure the fact that it's an URL should nullify that. Also, make sure you have allow_url_fopen turned on.
