After submit your form, before to call the upload library, echo

Code:
$_FILES[‘userfile’][‘type’]

and check if the mime is in config/mimes.php

userfile is the name of the file that you want to upload!

Change userfile to the name of your file!

Try this!

controller upload.php:

Code:
class Upload extends Controller {

    function Upload()

    {

        parent::Controller();

        $this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));

    }

    function index()

    {    

        $this->load->view('upload_form', array('error' => ' ' ));

    }

    function do_upload()

    {

        $config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';

        $config['allowed_types'] = 'doc|ppt|xls|pdf';

        $config['max_size']    = '0';

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

        if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload())

        {

            $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);

        }

    }    

}

?&gt;

view upload_form:

Code:
&lt;html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;

&lt;title&gt;Upload Form&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

&lt;?php echo $error;?&gt;

&lt;?php echo form_open_multipart('upload/do_upload');?&gt;

&lt;input type="file" name="userfile" size="20" /&gt;

<br /><br />

&lt;input type="submit" value="upload" /&gt;

&lt;/form&gt;

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

view upload_success:

Code:
&lt;html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;

&lt;title&gt;Upload Form&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

<h3>Your file was successfully uploaded!</h3>

<ul>

&lt;?php foreach($upload_data as $item => $value):?&gt;

<li>&lt;?php echo $item;?&gt;: &lt;?php echo $value;?&gt;</li>

&lt;?php endforeach; ?&gt;

</ul>

<p>&lt;?php echo anchor('upload', 'Upload Another File!'); ?&gt;</p>

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

make sure that the uploads directory is writeable!

echo out what you are getting!

[quote author="InsiteFX" date="1295880633"]userfile is the name of the file that you want to upload!

Change userfile to the name of your file!

InsiteFX[/quote]

WRONG!!!

userfile is the file field name not the name of the file. To access the file name use

Code:
$_FILES['userfile']['name']
