PHP move_uploaded_file() error?

I using following code and it is successfully uploading files on my local machine. It is showing "Successfully uploaded" on my local machine.

// Upload file
$moved = move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "images/" . "myFile.txt" );

if( $moved ) {
  echo "Successfully uploaded";         
} else {
  echo "Not uploaded";
}

But when I used this code on my online server then it is not uploading file and just showing message "Not uploaded".

How can I know that what is the problem and how can I get the actual problem to display to the user ?

Solution

  • Check that the web server has permissions to write to the "images/" directory
