The upload path does not appear to be valid. - ahsan - 12-14-2016
Hi,
I am trying to upload a file on live server cPanel but it not uploading and i am getting the error
Code:
The upload path does not appear to be valid.and some time 500-internal server error
But the thing is same code is running on my local machine wamp and every thing is perfect. I give full permissions to the upload folder and upload folder is on root where index.php is there
Controller:
PHP Code:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Careers extends CI_Controller {
function __construct(){
parent::__construct();
$this->load->library(array('upload','session','javascript','encrypt','email','form_validation'));
$this->load->helper(array('form','text','html','url','email','lang','file','directory'));
$this->load->driver(array('session'));
$this->load->model('Careers_model','model');
}
public function index($lang=false)
{
$vars['lang'] =langhomename($lang);
$langid=langhomeid($lang);
$this->load->view('careers/index',$vars);
}
public function cvcareers($lang=false){
$vars['lang'] =langhomename($lang);
$langid=langhomeid($lang);
$this->model->cvcareers($vars);
}
}
Model:
PHP Code:
<?php
class Careers_model extends CI_Model {
public function __construct(){
$this->load->database();
}
public function cvcareers($vars){
//getting values from the submitted form
$designation = $_POST['career-designation'];
$email = $_POST['career-email'];
$name = $_POST['career-name'];
$number = $_POST['career-number'];
$msg = $_POST['career-msg'];
$cvdata = '';
//Uploading file to the directory
$config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = 1000;
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if (!$this->upload->do_upload('userfile'))
{
$vars['cv_status']= array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
print_r($vars);
echo 'Uploaderror';
}
else
{
$cvdata= $this->upload->data();
//assiging form data in array to pass to the database function
$data = array(
'designation' => $designation,
'email' =>$email,
'name'=>$name,
'number'=>$number,
'message'=>$msg,
'path'=>$config['upload_path'],
//'cv' =>$cvdata['file_name'],
'cv' =>'filename',
);
//Inserting data into the database
$this->db->insert('careers', $data);
//Genrating email for sending,
$mailconfig['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$mailconfig['smtp_host'] = 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com'; //change this
$mailconfig['smtp_port'] = '465';

$message =message($designation,$email,$name,$number,$msg,$cvdata);
//attaching file with the email
$this->email->attach($cvdata["full_path"]);
$this->email->set_newline("\r\n");
$this->email->set_mailtype("html");
$this->email->from('@gmail.com');
$this->email->to('@gmail.com');

Why did you put it in model?
Try controller instead and then send success data to model

Load upload file library same official doc:
Controller
Code:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Careers extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
}
public function do_upload()
{
$config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = 100;
$config['max_width'] = 1024;
$config['max_height'] = 768;
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('userfile'))
{
$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$this->load->view('upload_form', $error);
}
else
{
$data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
$this->load->view('upload_success', $data);
}
}
$this->load->library(array('session','javascript','encrypt','email','form_validation'));
$this->load->helper(array('text','html','email','lang','file','directory'));
$this->load->driver(array('session'));
$this->load->model('Careers_model','model');
public function index($lang=false)
{
$vars['lang'] =langhomename($lang);
$langid=langhomeid($lang);
$this->load->view('careers/index',$vars);
}
public function cvcareers($lang=false){
$vars['lang'] =langhomename($lang);
$langid=langhomeid($lang);
$this->model->cvcareers($vars);
}
}The important thing to specify the directory and set chmod permissions.
