Hello,

I am using the php upload extension made by Tim(rawveg) its great... I have one small question, I want to specify that the file uploads .zip files so I have chosen custom in the Valid Mime types, but I am unsure what to place in there is it simple zip, .zip or application/zip, anyone shed some light on this for me <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Cheers

Yep I'm thick, the option was always there <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>

I really must get some sleep and read the options more carefully

On a side note, I do keep getting this error, but you only see if for a split second before it redirects to my succesful upload page:

Warning: stat failed for reload.zip (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /home/4564/ccvn/www.ccvn.co.uk/public_html/admin_area/add_downloads.php on line 51

anyone?

Stat errors are quite common amongst certain PHP configurations. The issue lies with your error_reporting setting in your PHP.ini, as it is set too high.

To resolve this, change your error_reporting to E_ALL & E_NOTICE, so as to hide any warnings. The message you are receiving is just a warning, rather than an error, and you wouldn't want them to show on your pages anyway.

I hope this helps.

Thanks very much rawveg, I have a friendly chat with my hosting provider <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>, incidentally why does the error show up when everything works fine <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Well, in truth it is a warning, not an error. Warnings are a different kind of message in PHP and are usually brought into play when a function will either be deprecated, or that there are elements of the function that could produce an error message when used.

Other times, warnings are used internally by PHP to bring into play other processes. In your case, PHP could not find the relevant file or directory. This warning then acts as a flag to tell PHP to create the file or folder as necessary.

It's for this reason, that error_reporting should be set to a level where warnings aren't produced (in a production environment), but they can be useful during the debug process during development.

I hope this helps.
