[Solved] Problem with image resize codeigniter

On my project I am creating a bootstrap modal where I can view all images in side a selected folder.

The problem I am having is I have the correct folder permissions on my uploads / cache folder but still trows error below.

Any suggestions why this is happening and how to solve this.

Resize Function

PHP Code:

        $this->load->library('image_lib');

        if (!file_exists(FCPATH . 'uploads/cache/' . $file_name)) {

               $this->image_lib->resize();

        }

        return base_url('uploads/cache/' . $file_name);

Controller

        foreach ($images as $image) {
            $file_name = basename($image);
            $data['images'][] = array(
                'name' => $file_name,
                'href' => $this->resize_image($file_name, 100, 100)
            );

        }

        $this->load->view('template/common/upload', $data);
    }

public function resize_image($file_name, $width, $height) {

            $config['height'] = $height;
                
            $config['new_image'] = './uploads/cache/' . $file_name;

               $this->image_lib->initialize($config);

               $this->image_lib->resize();

        }

        return base_url('uploads/cache/' . $file_name);

Why do you merge directories and files into images array ?

I don't get the logic in that..

Code:

      // Merge directories and files
       $images = array_merge($directories, $files);
       foreach ($images as $image) {
           $file_name = basename($image);

Code:

$directory = FCPATH . 'uploads/' . $this->input->get('directory');

Insecure.

You need to verify your $file_name variable a bit more. I think your error is being invoked by an empty filename.

PHP Code:

if (!empty($file_name) &&  !file_exists(FCPATH . 'uploads/cache/' . $file_name)) { 


And as @ivantcholakov says, properly validate your input, make shure it does not contain a '/'

Thank you all for great advice

That is so I can click on a directory icon as well but now it is all working.
