HEADER

I'm having some issues uploading and I have tried everything that the FAQ and this thread has told me. I've changed the file permissions, added the form tag, and done everything else that I've read. I'm also using Joomla 1.5 and am using version 2.5 J1.5 RC1 of chronocontact. Here is the error that I'm getting:

I echoed out my file permissions.

File perms= 0777

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/home/.../public_html/components/com_chronocontact/upload/20080513222202_Zorro.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.../public_html/components/com_chronocontact/chronocontact.php on line 538

Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phprIRRN5' to '/home/.../public_html/components/com_chronocontact/upload/20080513222202_Zorro.jpg' in /home/.../public_html/components/com_chronocontact/chronocontact.php on line 538

Warning: chmod() [function.chmod]: No such file or directory in /home/.../public_html/components/com_chronocontact/chronocontact.php on line 540

I was actually able to get passed the permission denied issue by changing the permissions on the upload directory itself. Although, I had to change it to 0777 in order to prevent the code from erroring out. However, when I submit the form it is still not uploading the files to that upload destination, nor is it writing the filename in the database anymore. Please help me.

Here is what I get when i turn the debug message on:

_POST: Array ( [creation_user_id] => 66 [status] => A [cat] => Home Decor [title] => cvnb [summary] => cvbn [description] => cvbn [cost] => [time] => )

I will send whomever a backup of the form to an email if need be.

Hi smetal,

The debug doesn't help here as it doesn't include the $_FILES array.

I think there was a small fix in a recent ChronoForms release so please update to the latest version.

You can also send a Form Backup to the address in my sig but this will only confirm if there is a problem with the form - permission problems are site / server related.

Bob,
Thanks a lot for your quick response and help. The update seemed to do the trick. I can now see the files uploaded on the server. The issue that I see now is that when I go to view the form data in the admin I'm not seeing the file name displayed. I'm trying to get into the database now to see if it was inserted in the table, but I think the server is down. Is there some kind of display limit when viewing the form data? The filename is kinda long, because it gets generated.

Hi smetal,

There shouldn't be any problem viewing the form data (if the MySQL server is down then your site won't work at all).

Please will you copy and post the code from your form Autogenerated code tab here to check that the file is included there.

PS I sometimes find that the free EasySQL Joomla Extension is a simple way to look at database tables.

Bob,

Here is the auto-generated code. The "photofile" is the name in the form. It was working before, now it stopped once I upgraded.

Code:

<?php $database =& JFactory::getDBO(); $database->setQuery( "INSERT INTO #__chronoforms_3 VALUES ( '' , '". date('Y-m-d')." - ".date("H:i:s")."', '".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."' , '".$_POST['cat']."' , '".$_POST['title']."' , '".$_POST['summary']."' , '".$_POST['description']."' , '".$_POST['cost']."' , '".$_POST['time']."' , '".$_POST['photofile']."', '".$_POST['creation_user_id']."' , '".$_POST['status']."');" ); if (!$database->query()) { echo "<script> alert('".$database->getErrorMsg()."'); window.history.go(-1); </script> "; } ?>
