PHP Image Upload Question

[GeForce]

I've got a form with a 'File' type input, which submits to:
action="imguploadscr.php"

In that page, I have this:

if(isset( $Submit ))
{ //If the Submitbutton was pressed do:
if ($_FILES['imagefile']['type'] == "image/jpeg"){ 
// do image processing stuff
} else {
echo "Sorry, only JPEG files are permitted. (".$_FILES['imagefile']['name'].")<br>";
}
}

Now when I upload a small JPG file, for example 200kb, it works fine. However, when I try a file that's big, ie. around 5mb+, it fails, giving the error "Sorry, only JPEG files are permitted", when it is definitely a JPG file.

Anyone got any idea what's going on here?

Thanks,
Jon

Err... "do image processing stuff" is not exactly helpful since this is the likely location of your problem.

EDIT: Does PHP have a problem with upper/lowercase extensions at all? Just wondering if maybe your larger image files are .JPG. I don't think there should be an issue but it has cropped up for me on occassion with some websites.

it kinda could be - I believe the upload limit by default for php/apache is around 2MB - have you seen what the upload limit is.

My apologies. I'm not particularly experienced with PHP/MySQL.

Here is the If statement with the image processing code included:

if(isset( $Submit ))
{
//If the Submitbutton was pressed do:


if ($_FILES['imagefile']['type'] == "image/jpeg"){ 
global $ticketid;

    copy ($_FILES['imagefile']['tmp_name'], "../images/".$ticketid.".jpg") 
    or die ("Could not copy");        
	echo ""; 
        echo "Name: ".$_FILES['imagefile']['name'].""; 
        echo "<br>Size: ".$_FILES['imagefile']['size'].""; 
        echo "<br>Type: ".$_FILES['imagefile']['type'].""; 
        echo "<br><br><b>Thanks, your photo has been submitted. Your Ticket ID is: ".$ticketid.".";
	echo "<br>You can check your ticket status <a href='../tickets/ticketinforeq.php'>here</a>.";
	echo "<br><br>";
	$picpath = "../images/".$ticketid.".jpg";
	echo "<a href='".$picpath."' target='_blank'><img src='".$picpath."' height=150></a>";
	echo "<br><i>Preview. Click to view full size.</i>";

//update database to show a pic has been sent

$username="root";
$password="youwish";
$database="printdb";

mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");

$query="UPDATE tickets SET photosub='1' WHERE ticketno='$ticketid'";
mysql_query($query);

$query="UPDATE tickets SET printsize='".$papersize."' WHERE ticketno='$ticketid'";
mysql_query($query);
$query="UPDATE tickets SET printmedium='".$medium."' WHERE ticketno='$ticketid'";
mysql_query($query);
$query="UPDATE tickets SET printframed='".$frame."' WHERE ticketno='$ticketid'";
mysql_query($query);

mysql_close();
 
        } else {
            echo "<br><br>";
            echo "Sorry, only JPEG files are permitted. (".$_FILES['imagefile']['name'].")<br>";
        }
}

Thanks,
Jon

Sorted! Thanks Sic, it was the filesize limit. I thought I'd changed it, but apparently I hadn't!

Thanks again,
Jon
