Get folder path instead of url path

i i want download file from server , i create a link:

Code:

<a href="<?=WRITEPATH.'uploads/report/'.$doa->id.'/'. $doa->numero ?>" class="btn btn-info ms-3" download>DOWNLOAD FILE</a>



But if i see the link i have  :

[CODE]

https://my_site/home/uz2lnhpx/domains/my_subdomain/public_html/codeigniter/writable/uploads/report/32/1003_General.xlsx

[/CODE]
instead of :

Code:

/home/uz2lnhpx/domains/my_subdomain/public_html/codeigniter/writable/uploads/report/32/1003_General.xlsx

And chrome show that file there isn't...

You cannot reach WRITEPATH from public folder. You should do this instead:

PHP Code:

    public function downloadReport($id, $numero)
    {
        $file = WRITEPATH . 'uploads/report/' . $id . '/' . $numero;
        $data = file_get_contents($file);
        $this->response->setHeader('Content-Type', mime_content_type($file));
        $this->response->setHeader('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename="'.$numero.'"');
        return $this->response->setBody($data);
    } 


I want download by click on button not change page to download

Create new folder in public/uploads, set 777 chmod. Done.

is not a permission problem is a path problem (give 777 same problem)



for example on localhost i have this path localhost:8080/home..... there isn't a s.o folder named localhost:8080

From the browser, you can only see files from the public/*** folder. Not writable, vendor, tests,...
There is another problem if you change the save path to public/uploads?
