Not sure. If you made any modifications download the script again.

This is the code that generated that link:

$url_dir = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); $upload_url = $url_dir."/files/";

No \ there

Hi!

Clicking on View (Action -> View file) gives me the following url:
http://192.168.123.123\/files/testupload.txt

Why is there a \ in the url?

Locate this line in upload.php:
$file_name = str_replace(“‘”,”",$file_name);
and add these 2 lines right after it:

$new_file_name = explode(‘.’, $file_name);
$file_name = $new_file_name[0].date(‘YmdHis’).’.’.$new_file_name[1];

This way no uploaded file will ever have the same name.

I grabbed your script and I get this back:

Warning: opendir(gsmanga.pinochan.net/BOA/files) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/.peggy/gsmanga/gsmanga.pinochan.net/BOA/upload/upload.php on line 96

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/.peggy/gsmanga/gsmanga.pinochan.net/BOA/upload/upload.php on line 101

Any help? I do have that directory and I did CHmod it to 777 like it said in your instructions. I am trying to allow people to upload music files for an online jukebox for my site…

When a user uploads the same file name it overwrites the original file. I need it to rename the new file instead.
Thanks.

Commander Killbot. I forgot to reply to your comment. The script has been rewritten. The notices will not appear if you download the new archive.

Hi,
Thanks for the script – I’m using it with XAMPP on a SuSE box and it seems to be working for both uploads and deletes, but I’m getting error notices like this:

Notice: Use of undefined constant del – assumed ‘del’ in /opt/lampp/htdocs/upload/upload.php on line 42

Notice: Undefined index: del in /opt/lampp/htdocs/upload/upload.php on line 42

Notice: Undefined index: userfile in /opt/lampp/htdocs/upload/upload.php on line 54

Notice: Undefined index: userfile in /opt/lampp/htdocs/upload/upload.php on line 76

Notice: Use of undefined constant message – assumed ‘message’ in /opt/lampp/htdocs/upload/upload.php on line 131
deleted successfully

Since the script is working, this is not of vital importance, but can you help me figure out what’s going on with the notices?

Thanks!

Fabio, you have to chmod to 777 the directory in which you try to upload.
For example you want to upload into directory “files” then you have to create “/root/files” directory and chmod it to 777.
