Why does uploading images fail in this application? - Ajax30 - 09-03-2020
I am working on a Social Network application with Codeigniter 3, Ioan-Auth and Bootstrap 4. More details HERE.
The code below correctly hashes the filename before inserting it in the avatar column, but the upload itself never happens.
Code:
if ($this->form_validation->run() === TRUE)
{
//more code here
$config['upload_path'] = './assets/img/avatars';
$config['file_ext_tolower'] = TRUE;
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|jpeg|png';
$config['max_size'] = 1024;
$config['max_width'] = 1024;
$config['max_height'] = 1024;
$config['encrypt_name'] = TRUE;
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if (!$this->upload->do_upload('userfile')){
$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$file_name = null;
} else {
$file_name = $this->upload->data('file_name');
}
$additional_data = [
'first_name' => $this->input->post('first_name'),
'last_name' => $this->input->post('last_name'),
'avatar' => $file_name,
'company' => $this->input->post('company'),
'phone' => $this->input->post('phone'),
];
}I have a XAMPP server on Windows 10, so it is unlikely that there are permission issues on the images folder.

Maybe because your missing the ending forward slash / on the upload_path?

I wish it was that. It is not.

Have you tried checking each suitable points ? For example, after your upload path line you can :
PHP Code:
$config['upload_path'] = './assets/img/avatars';
echo $config['upload_path];
die();
// or print_r() where suitable..
So that you can see the results of each code block.
By the way, $this->load->library part did not work for me as well and I used it as below in one of my projects:
PHP Code:
//$this->load->library('upload', $config); instead of this, use below
$this->upload->initialize($config);

Nice, but how do I load the upload library then?

PHP Code:
// You could also autoload it
$this->load->library('upload');
// Initialize the Configuration
$this->upload->initialize($config);
