[wapmetal]

can u post sample codes where site.com/pogi.zip can be moved @ site.com/folderwant/pogi.zip via $POST $GET????
i am trying these

if (!copy("$cid", "../vampire/sipogi_$cid"))
{
    echo "<b>Couldn't copy file.</b><br/>";
} else {
echo "uploaded";
}

i used $cid for function $POST so URL will be posted there (!copy("$cid", "../vampire/sipogi_$cid")) and url posted correctly as i add data in DB but it dont works in moving that file

did you have set 777?

[subzero]

777 on the folder you want it move too

[wapmetal]

yes i already did but it gets error

i think ftp software is best.. no need of any script

[djlee]

do you want to copy or move, if you wanna move it then you should be using rename() not copy().

[GiLL]

well you need to turn off open_basedir security as it stop shell access scripts if your using new php version you may check new changes etc

for external file you can use

<?
$file="http://site.com/filename.zip ";

$fname= array_reverse(explode("/",$file));
if(copy("$file", "demo/$fname[0]")) echo "$file copyed<br>";
?>

if you have ssh access you could use linux cp command even as curl command

or
some thing like that
cp /home/user/public_html/mylog.txt /home/user/public_html/backup/mylog.txt

if you use x3 on ya cpanel all ya have to do is click what files you want to move and then click move files and then put where ya want it to be moved to that is if the files ya moving to are in the same account
