For somethings version of RedHat Linux, you need modify the php.ini
(/etc/php.ini), search a line:

file_uploads=Off

modify to:

file_uploads=On

And everything is Ok.

See you.

In PHP 4.2.0 (and above) there will be also an 'error'
entry in the array which has some more info:

/* Errors */
#define UPLOAD_ERROR_A 1 /* Uploaded file exceeded
upload_max_filesize */
#define UPLOAD_ERROR_B 2 /* Uploaded file exceeded MAX_FILE_SIZE */
#define UPLOAD_ERROR_C 3 /* Only partiallly uploaded */
#define UPLOAD_ERROR_D 4 /* No file uploaded */
#define UPLOAD_ERROR_E 5 /* Uploaded file size 0 bytes */

It's 0 if the upload was succesful.

I have had a file upload script working in 4.0.5, but I just upgraded
to
4.1.2 and have been getting problems with the
$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] variable.

It seems that it always returns 'n' as the temporary filename. I have
tried replacing $HTTP_POST_FILES with the new $_FILES variable, but I
still get the same problem.

It would be great if you can help!!

Thanks guys

Hmm the thing is I can get the information from all of the other parts
of the array, the original filename and file type all come out correct,
but the temp name is still 'n'...

$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile'] is "none" when
an upload fails (eg. due to size restrictions)

so you should check for

  is_array($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile'])

first

changed to "Documentation problem"
