Error upload PHP image. Warning: move_uploaded_file(): failed to open stream: Permission denied

Question

Error you are showing when I execute the code:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(fotos/7d80310d2fa83125d395d77e6f739bb8.png): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/PHP/Diego/Funcoes_PHP/upload_imagem/upload.php on line 15 Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move '/tmp/phpvi9j6k' to 'fotos/7d80310d2fa83125d395d77e6f739bb8.png' in /var/www/PHP/Diego/Funcoes_PHP/upload_imagem/upload.php on line 15 erro

The code I’m using is just below:

<?php
    include ("conexao.php");

    $msg = false; 

    if(isset($_FILES['arquivo'])){
        $extensao = strtolower(substr($_FILES['arquivo']['name'], -4)); 

        $novo_nome = md5(time()).$extensao;
        $diretorio = 'fotos/'; //diretório para o upload

        /move_uploaded_file(filename, destination)
        if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['arquivo']['tmp_name'], $diretorio.$novo_nome)){
            echo 'Arquivo salvo com sucesso em : <strong>' . $diretorio . '</strong><br />';
                    echo ' < img src = "' . $novo_nome . '" />';
        }else{
            echo 'erro';
        }

        $sql_code = "INSERT INTO arquivo (codigo, arquivo, data) values (null, '$novo_nome', NOW())"; //função now() pega o horário atual


        mysql_query($sql_code,$conexao) or die (mysql_error(""));

    } 
?>
<?php if($msg!= false) echo "<p> $msg </p>";?>
<h1>Upload</h1>
<form action="upload.php" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
    Arquivo: <input type="file" required name="arquivo">
    <input type="submit" value="Salvar">
</form>

Diego, you are having folder permission problem.

So that you can move file to this directory: $diretorio = 'fotos/'; It is necessary that the same has permission for this.

With this, you can simply do chmod(), where you can modify the folder permission. Do so before this line (

$diretorio = 'fotos/'; //diretório para o upload

) in your code: chmod ("/fotos/", 0777); where 0777 is the total permission in the folder.

Thus remaining:

chmod ("/fotos/", 0777);
$diretorio = 'fotos/'; //diretório para o upload

And the rest of your code
