When I try to make a simple form to upload images, I get this error when I try to access the form:

Here is my controller code:

<?php

class Controller_Image extends Controller {
  
  public function action_index() {
    $config = array(
    'path' => DOCROOT.DS.'files',
    'randomize' => true,
    'ext_whitelist' => array('img', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'png'),
    );

    Upload::process($config);
    if(Upload::is_valid()) {
      Upload::save();
    }
    
    return Response::forge(View::forge('image/index'));
  
  }

  public function action_404() {
    return Response::forge(ViewModel::forge('welcome/404'), 404);
  }

}

Here is my view code:

<?php

  echo Form::open(array('enctype' => 'multipart/form-data'));
  echo Form::file&#40;'filename'&#41;;
  echo Form::submit('submit');
  echo Form::close(); 

?>

Help? Thanks!

You get that error if you don't upload anything and using 1.2/master or 1.2RC1. It has already been fixed in 1.2/develop, so either wait for the 1.2 release (next couple of days), switch to a develop branch (1.3/develop would then be the option) or get the source of the upload class from the 1.2/develop repository on github to patch your current installation.

Perfect thank you! Only now I'm getting this error when I try to upload something.

What would cause that?

LegalBreaker

Didn't realize the image links were broken. Anyway, I'm getting the following error: http://postimage.org/image/ldjvf1i67/

Then the fileinfo PHP extension isn't loaded.

Okay awesome! So now it gets through the uploading process but the files don't actually upload. What could be causing this? Thank you so much guys Fuel is a great framework just way different than anything else I've ever used! Stoked!

WanWizard

Aren't they uploaded, does the validation fail, or does the save fail? The correct way to work is to process, to check for errors, to save, to check for errors again. So your first port of call would be to dump the errors.

LegalBreaker

Awesome. I will start working on that and post back with updates.

Okay awesome I got it working. The problem was that my path wasn't writable so the files couldn't be stored there. Here is the controller and view for anyone that runs into this problem. View:

<html>
<head>
<title>Upload test</title>
<body>
<?php
  foreach($errors as $error) {
    foreach($error as $message) {
      echo $message['message'];
    }
  }
  echo Form::open(array('enctype' => 'multipart/form-data'));
  echo Form::file&#40;'filename'&#41;;
  echo Form::submit('submit');
  echo Form::close();

?>
</body>
</html>

Controller:

<?php

class Controller_Image extends Controller {

  public function action_index() {
    $config = array(
    'path' => '/var/www/pixelforger.com/web/thinkmeme/public/uploads',
    'randomize' => true,
    'ext_whitelist' => array('img', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'png'),
    );

    Upload::process($config);
    if(Upload::is_valid()) {
      Upload::save();
    }
    $data = array();
    $data['errors'] = '';
    $ii = 0;
    foreach(Upload::get_errors() as $file) {
      $data['errors'][$ii] = $file['errors'];
      ++$ii;
    }

    return Response::forge(View::forge('image/index', $data));

  }

  public function action_404() {
    return Response::forge(ViewModel::forge('welcome/404'), 404);
  }

}

?>

Cool. Good to hear you've got it sorted!

I get this error please: ErrorException [ Error ]: Call to undefined function Fuel\Core\finfo_open()

WanWizard

According to the PHP documentation, the finfo extension should be present by default in every PHP 5.3 installation. On Windows, you have to install an extra DLL, which is documented (so see the docs). Unfortunately, some hosters compile their own PHP binary, and instead of reviewing this process when switching to 5.3, they just used the old 5.2 scripts, leading to a crippled PHP binary. If you're with a hoster, complain to them. If that doesn't work, switch hosters.
