Im getting funny errors

Hey. Im having a bit of a problem.

I have made the following upload code :

PHP Code:


		
			
<?



if ($myfile && $navn && $besk) {



    $file_type=$_FILES['myfile']['type']; 

    $file_upload=$_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name']; 

    $file_error=$_FILES['myfile']['error']; 

    if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name'])) {

    $dest = 'uploads/tegninger/'.$USERID.'/';

    copy ($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name'],$dest);

    mysql_query("INSERT  INTO  USER_uploads ( a lot of personal user data) VALUES ( more personal user data)

    or die(mysql_error()); 

    

    }

}

?>

But my problem is, that i get the following error when trying to upload a picture:

PHP Code:


		
			
 Warning: copy(uploads/tegninger/1/): failed to open stream: Is a directory in /customers/sickworld.org/sickworld.org/httpd.www/kampp/tb/upload_tegning.php on line 13

And i cant wuite figure out whats happening. If somone can explain and help getting rid of it, please give your oppinions.

Try appending a filename to the end of $dest. I think what's happening is that PHP thinks you're trying to copy a file on top of (rather than into) a directory. Provide the the path to the filename rather than just the directory to copy into and you should be good (permissions willing).

PHP Code:


		
			
//Stick the temp name (or a new name) on the end of $dest

$dest = 'uploads/tegninger/'.$USERID.'/' . $_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name'];



//And copy the file itself rather than the name into the file at $dest.

copy ($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_file'],$dest);
