Uploading an image and copying it to a folder

[phplost1989]

I'm trying to allow a user to upload an image, and have that image copied to an Image folder on the server

When I run the code I get the success message near the bottom of the code, but the image never gets copied to the folder. I'm not sure what's causing it to not copy the image

 

if($_POST["store"] != "") // if upload was hit
{
$fileExt = strrchr($_FILES['userfile']['name'], "."); // grab extension
if($fileExt != ".jpg" && $fileExt != ".jpeg") // check extension
{
	$_SESSION["badFileType"] = "You cannot upload a file of type ".$fileExt; // set error
}
else
{
	$fileName = $_FILES['userfile']['name']; // set file name
	if(!is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) 
	{
		echo "Problem: possible file upload attack!"; // set error
		exit(); // end
	}

	$upfile = "../Images/lg_".$category.$counter.".jpg"; // set path
	$newFileName = $category.$counter.".jpg"; // set new file name
	if(!copy($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $upfile)) // if not able to copy
	{
		echo "Problem: file could not be copied to directory!"; // set error
		exit(); // end
	}
	$_SESSION["badfileType"] = "File uploaded successfully!"; // set success message
}
}
else
{
$_SESSION["badFileType"] = ""; // clear error
}

check permissions on destination directory and/or try a full path instead of relative.

permissions are setup and I just tried a full path, but still no image being copied to the folder

Any other ideas?

check $upfile and make sure it's what you expect. try move()?
