The script i wrote is having trouble copying big (over 2mb) files from the temporary folder. Ive tried many different alternatives to uploads and none work. My hosting says that its not the server. So whats wrong?

You'll need to check your php.ini settings. There is a setting called 'upload_max_filesize' and is default set to 2M (2MB). Look it up in your typical phpinfo() or use ini_get('upload_max_filesize').

where can i find the php.ini file?

[Demonslay]

You have to ask your host about it because its a core file...

[Hip Hop Artist]

i did that and he said that its my script.....i know the scripts not wrong thought the only error i get is a copy error or when i change it to the move_file function it a moving error.

[Demonslay]

Then you'll have to show us the script, which I'm surprised wasn't the first thing you did.

Just double check that php.ini setting anyways, never hurts to check yourself by just running your typical phpinfo() and looking for 'upload_max_filesize'.

ok will do but for now heres the script:

btw you were right upload_max_filesize is 2M thanks for the help!

What error are you getting, is it killing the script and giving the die error from the copy() line? Or is the copy() function itself throwing an error?

All I see is a space in the filepath on this line.

copy ($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], "/home/site/public_html/portal/uploads/mp3_mu sic/".$rand_name)
or die ("Could not upload music. Try again.");

(By the way you know you can use code tags to better read code...)

[Hip Hop Artist]

well the copy function is the thing giving me the error

[Demonslay]

And what is this error? You can't just say 'I have this giving me an error' and expect me to know exactly what it is telling you and be able to tell what to do about it.
