Upload path on Codeigniter returns “the upload pat

问题:

Now i've tried most of the fixes that i've read, most of them mention about APPPATH, base_url(), real path and etc. but i really don't know why all of them didn't work, what worked for me is that i've used the actual path, not a url but the one with the C:\xampp\htdocs.. blah blah blah.. now i've read one thread that url and directory aren't the same thing.. and the upload_path accepts only directory path and i mean the actual location of the uploads folder on the server not the URL.. now my question is how come APPPATH don't work. as what i know it the actual directory path. but when i tried to display is it return only "../applicaiton/" what really is the best path to be used on the $config['upload_path'] on the upload.php specially when deploying it to an actual server it is really a nuisance finding the directory path of your upload folder, NOTE im not using the initialize() method i'm putting my configs on config/upload.php

EDITS:

i have this on a separate file... upload.php

<?php 
$config['upload_path'] ='./uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '5000';
$config['max_width'] = '1600';
$config['max_height'] = '1200';

and this is my controller

     if($this->upload->do_upload('image'))
     {
         //Did something here
     }
     else
     {
        //Did something for errors like display_errors()
     }

and end result is it displays "the upload path doesn't seem to be valid" and i've tried these line of code also

Trial 1:

$config['upload_path'] ='./uploads/';

Trial 2:

$config['upload_path'] ='uploads/';

Trial 3:

$config['upload_path'] ='/admin/assets/uploads/';

Trial 4:

$config['upload_path'] ='./admin/assets/uploads/';

Trial 5:

$config['upload_path'] ='admin/assets/uploads/';

the only thing that works is this

 $config['upload_path'] ='C:\xampp\htdocs\practice\admin.abcgencon\admin\assets\uploads'';

and using the last part as a path is kinda messy so i've tried also APPPATHbut it doesn't work also it also display "../application"..

as @cryptic said i've posted this code snippet.

回答1:

Question, you tried realpath and APPPATH seperately?

In Codeigniter APPPATH points to the application folder

Example: (place your folder outside the application folder, just saying if you did not do that way) lets say te folder where we want to place the files called images

So what you need to do is combine realpath() and APPPATH

$image_path = realpath(APPPATH . '../images');

and pass it to your config

$config['upload_path'] = $image_path;

回答2:

Create your file upload directory say uploads outside of application directory or at the root directory of CI, and set the upload path as follows:-

$config['upload_path'] = realpath(FCPATH.'uploads');

FCPATH: Path to the front controller where index.php exists (root of CI)

The above code runs on both server and local.

回答3:

This is how file uploading is done in CI

$cat_image_name = $_FILES["cat_image"]["name"] ; 

//file uploading params
$config['upload_path'] = './uploaded_files/categories';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['file_name'] = $image_id."_ipad";
$config['remove_spaces'] = TRUE;

//Loading Library - File Uploading
$this->load->library('upload', $config);

//Upload the image(Ipad)
if (!empty($cat_image_name)) 
{
  $this->upload->do_upload('cat_image');
  $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
  $category_image_ipad = $data['upload_data']['file_name'];
  $img_extension = $data['upload_data']['file_ext'];
}

回答4:

try this

$config['upload_path'] = '../uploads/;

It's working very well for me

回答5:

use it:

$config['upload_path'] = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/uploads/";
//$this->config->item('upload_path');

回答6:

file upload requires a multipart form. For this, you must have included a form helper.

goto config folder, click autoload and find the $autoload['helper'] = array(); and put 'form' :

$autoload['helper'] = array('form');

for controller:

$config = array(

    'upload_path' => "./assets/",
    'allowed_types' => "gif|jpg|png|jpeg",
    'overwrite' => TRUE,
    'max_size' => "2048000",
    'max_height' => "768",
    'max_width' => "1024"
    );

    $this->load->library('upload', $config);

    if(!$this->upload->do_upload()){
        $errors = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
        $post_image = 'noimage.jpg';
    } else {
        $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
        $post_image = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
    }

    $this->user_model->create_photo($post_image);
    redirect('');
}

for model:

public function create_photo($post_image){

    $data = array(
        'pri' => $this->input->post('price'),
        'descrip' => $this->input->post('title'),
        'post_image' => $post_image
    );

    return $this->db->insert('table_name', $data);
}

Tested on Windows & Linux:

$path = realpath(".");
$path .= "/uploads/profile_images";

Here uploads is the uploads directory on root.

回答8:

It is very simple:

Just copy your all $config in new php file called upload.php and put it in cofig folder.

You path will work ok.

Here is upload.php file contents:

<?php

    $config['upload_path'] = site_url().'uploads';
    $config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png|jpeg|html|pdf';
    $config['max_size'] = 0;
    $config['max_width']  = 0;
    $config['max_height']  = 0;
    $config['file_ext_tolower']  = TRUE;
    $config['overwrite']  = FALSE;
    $config['max_filename']  = 0;
    $config['encrypt_name']  = TRUE;
    $config['remove_spaces']  = TRUE;
    $config['detect_mime']  = TRUE;
    $config['mod_mime_fix']  = TRUE;
?>

But please keep $config data in upload_file controller as well.For example:

public function do_upload(){

    $config['upload_path'] = 'uploads';
    $config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png|jpeg|html|pdf';
    $config['max_size'] = 0;
    $config['max_width']  = 0;
    $config['max_height']  = 0;
    $config['file_ext_tolower']  = TRUE;
    $config['overwrite']  = FALSE;
    $config['max_filename']  = 0;
    $config['encrypt_name']  = TRUE;
    $config['remove_spaces']  = TRUE;
    $config['detect_mime']  = TRUE;
    $config['mod_mime_fix']  = TRUE;

//Alternately you can set preferences by calling the initialize function. Useful if you auto-load the class:

   $this->upload->initialize($config);


            if (!$this->upload->do_upload('userfile'))
    {
        $error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());

        $this->load->view('upload_form', $error);
    }
    else
    {
        $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());

        $this->load->view('upload_success', $data);
    }
    }

It is simple...
