Image upload + resize + store at DB. Some problems - El Forum - 12-21-2007

[eluser]bewhite[/eluser]
I'm trying to create script that will process uploading image. This script should resize uploaded item and then store it at the database. Since I don't need file at the filesystem I am trying to rewrite temporary file created by the Apache by the resized image file.

Code:
$file = null;

        if(!empty($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']))

        {

          $config = array();

          $config['image_library'] = 'GD';

          $config['source_image'] = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];

          $config['create_thumb'] = TRUE;

          $config['thumb_marker'] = '';

          $config['maintain_ratio'] = TRUE;

          $config['width'] = 145;

          $config['height'] = 105;

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

          $this->image_lib->resize();

          $file = file_get_contents($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']);

        }

// Write to DB

Something is wrong here because image is at the DB but it have initial sizes. I can't find where is the error. Can anybody help me?

if you set

Code:
$config['create_thumb'] = TRUE;

then the class makes a copy - I believe your copy has the filename FILE_
if you set it to FALSE it resizes the original file...

Ah. Yes. I have forgot about this character Smile

I have switched 'create_thumb' to the FALSE but the result is the same.

Additionally, I have added error catching block:

Code:
if (!$this->image_lib->resize())

{

  echo $this->image_lib->display_errors('<p>', '</p>');

  exit;

}

No errors were displayed.

Any other ideas?

BTW, I have tried to run this code both on the GIF and JPG files. The result is the same - nothing.
