Error message is 'You did not upload the file'.

I cannot see anything wrong.

Hello,
if you can post the form code also, so
1) you have to add <form enctype="multipart/form-data" , the entype on form open tag
2)ideally try to use the example from CI toturial input
3) print the upload error so you can see whats going on
4) dont forget that you have max size 10mb but the server maybe is on 2mb , so you have to check the server too!

Thas all

Did you include multipart in the form declaration (in the view)?
If you (auto)load the form helper, you can do it like this:

PHP Code:

<?php echo form_open_multipart('blogs/create_blog');?>

Also check whether you set the right permissions for the folder.

$head = $_POST['head'];
$body = $_POST['body'];
$footer = $_POST['footer'];

$config['upload_path'] = base_url('/src/img/blog');

$config['max_size'] = 10000;
$config['max_width'] = 4000;
$config['max_height'] = 4000;

$this->upload->initialize($config);

if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('image'))
{
$error = array('message' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$this->load->view('temp/header-short');
$this->load->view('admin/create_blog', $error);
