Image upload data empty

Question

Currently have these code.

    $config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';
                $config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
                $config['max_size'] = '1000';
                $config['max_width']  = '270';
                $config['max_height']  = '280';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);

Then ill insert the details into the database.

$this->Model->upload_image($this->upload->data(),$result_id);

But the db row is empty so i checked myself. I print_r($image_data) which is the first parameter of the model function. Still empty, to make sure even mor. i typed in.

print_r($this->upload->data());

Still, the results come out empty.

Array ( [file_name] => [file_type] => [file_path] => ./uploads/ [full_path] => ./uploads/ [raw_name] => [orig_name] => [client_name] => [file_ext] => [file_size] => [is_image] => [image_width] => [image_height] => [image_type] => [image_size_str] => )

EDIT:

if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload())
            {
            $error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
            $this->load->view('view', $error);
            }
            else
            {
            $image_data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
            print_r($this->upload->data());
}

I added the do_upload() line of code, although it wont print_r.... Btw, do i need to namem y function do_upload aswell? — user3205047

Can you include the view that has the form in your question? — Samutz

If you have given any name to your input file control than you must need to set it while using this do_upload function.

For e.g.

$field_name = "some_field_name";
$this->upload->do_upload($field_name)

By default the upload routine expects the file to come from a form field called userfile, and the form must be a "multipart type

see the reference $this->upload->do_upload()
