issue with uploader

You are redirecting to the admin/dashboard in all circumstances, but you could be missing an error message.

Try doing something like:

PHP Code:

if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload($upload_image))
{ 
   $error = $this->upload->display_errors('', '');
   show_error('Upload Errors: '.$error, 401, 'Upload Error');
   exit;
} 


Perhaps your path/to/directory is not set correctly, or it is the image type, or the size etc etc. You should always be checking and reporting back to the user when an error occurs. Otherwise, how do you or the user know what is going on?

Hope that helps,

PS Am just using the 'show_error' for simplicity here, it is a quick solution while testing or developing. Of course normally you would have a user error view and/or error logging in place of some description.
