Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource

what did i do wrong here?

Code:

<?php

require("config.php");

if(isset($_POST['btnupload']) && $_FILE['filetag']['size'] > 0) {





#--------------------------------------------

#         VARIABLES

#--------------------------------------------



$filename = $_FILE['filetag']['name'];

$filetype = $_FILE['filetag']['type'];

$filesize = $_FILE['filetag']['size'];

$tmp_filename = $_FILE['filetag']['tmp_name'];





#--------------------------------------------

#  Upload file to database

#--------------------------------------------



$fp = fopen($tmp_filename, 'r');

$file_content = fread($fp, filesize($tmp_filename));

$file_content = addslashes($file_content);

$filename = addslashes($filename);

fclose($fp);

#--------------------------------------------

#        Query to upload

#--------------------------------------------



$sql = "INSERT INTO tbl_upload VALUES(null,'$filename','$filesize','$filetype','$file_content')";

mysql_query("$sql");



echo "file uploaded";



}



?>

here is the table description

Code:

CREATE TABLE `tbl_upload` (

  `id`       int AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,

  `name`     varchar(30) NOT NULL,

  `type`     varchar(30) NOT NULL,

  `size`     int NOT NULL,

  `content`  mediumblob NOT NULL,

  /* Keys */

  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)

) ENGINE = InnoDB;

here is php.ini

Code:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; File Uploads ;

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;



; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.

file_uploads = On



; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not

; specified).

upload_tmp_dir = "c:/wamp/tmp"



; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.

upload_max_filesize = 20M

It does not appear that you are checking if your fopen succeeded. Check $fp for a false and if it does return one, that could be your problem.

why do you think you made something wrong?
what is the problem?
the file is uploaded?
can you insert data in the db?

Use file_get_content. by the way, its not $_FILE its $_FILES

thanks orc for that, i put it as $_FILES now
and when i upload it it looks like it worked.

but i look in the table and nothing is there

so now im confused to why it wont work.

thats cause you didn't specify what columns to put the data in, like so:

Code:



INSERT INTO `table (col1,col2) VALUES('col1','col2 value');

you should add a or die(mysql_error()); to the end of mysql_query()

i found the problem, for some reason when i took this line out

Code:

$filename = addslashes($filename);

it worked.

You should also use:
base64_encode() on the data before putting it in the database:
PHP: base64_encode - Manual

And when you want to take it out use:
base64_decode() on the data.
PHP: base64_decode - Manual

Before you display it or download it or whatever.

Good luck.
