[PHP] upload a file directly to the proper directory

2002-03-19 Thread pierre . marcandella

I have to upload files.
My scripts don't work with large files.

On the "Chapter 19. Handling file uploads" from the php.net doc I found the 
following comments :

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
26-Feb-2002 08:24 
When uploading large files, I've found that the memory limit has to be
twice as large as the upload limit or else the PHP script will not be able
to move/copy the file to a new destination.
 
I guess this explain why I cannot manage large files uploading :
The upload is possible but I cannot move the file from the temporary directory.
As I cannot increase the memory_limit (my host does not allow it) I am 
wondering if it is possible to upload the file directly to its proper directory.

Thanks for any help.

Note :
I cannot modify the upload_tmp_dir directive of the php.ini file as others 
scripts also use it.

The manual mentions : "Setting it using putenv() from within a PHP script will 
not work.". Does it mean that what I want to do is not possible ?

My php.ini is set up as follow :
max_execution_time = 1
post_max_size = 30M
upload_max_filesize = 30M
and on my script, the MAX_FILE_SIZE hidden form element is present.

Re: [PHP] upload a file directly to the proper directory

Hi, Bogdan,
Thanks for your help.
It isn't a SQL error. I do not upload the file to a database.

I have been able to upload a 4M file.
I really think it is because the memory_limit of the server is 8M. And that 
means that it doesn't have enough resource to copy the uploaded file from the 
temporary folder to the proper one. 

I wanted to have confirmation about that and find a way to solve this problem.

[PHP] Header - cache control depends of the server ?

2002-03-27 Thread pierre . marcandella

Hi I am using this to make sure a page is refreshed when the user uses the back 
button of his browser :



When I try on local (Win NT) it works. The page is refreshed.
When I try on an other server (UNIX) it doesn't work.

Is it normal ?
Any idea how I can solve this ?
Thanks for any assistance.

[PHP] Uploading big files

2002-03-27 Thread pierre . marcandella

Hi,
I need confirmation on this matter :

The scripts I use to upload files work fine until the file exceed 7 M.
No specific error message appears. 

The hidden input MAX_FILE_SIZE is included in the scripts.

My scripts are running on php 4.1.2.

The php.ini file is set up as follow :
max_execution_time = 1
memory_limit = 8388608
post_max_size = 30M
file_uploads = On
upload_tmp_dir =
upload_max_filesize = 30M

Is it because of the memory_limit that it doesn't work ?
Do I have a way to upload files (over 7M) on the server without increasing the 
memory_limit ?

Thanks for your help.
