I have spent hours for this problem, but I have no idea how to fix it. I am having an error message when I try to upload an image. The error message is "The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed." But I don't think filetype is causing this problem. I found out that ! $this->upload->do_upload('image') is always false. and I found out that is because $this->_mimes[$ext]) (which is in the "system/libraries/Upload.php" file.) always brings me NULL.
When I tested out my function, I tried var_dump($this->file_type); and got "image/jpeg".
I also tried var_dump($ext); and got "jpg".
This is a part of Image.php file.
<?php echo form_open_multipart('/image/index');?>
<fieldset>
<legend>Upload Image</legend>
<div><label>File: </label><input id="image" type="file" name="image" /></div>
<div><label>Title: </label><input id="title" type="text" name="title" /></div>
<div class="error">
<?php echo $error; ?>
</div>
</fieldset>
<div class="form_line"><input id="image_submit" type="submit" value="Upload Picture" class="submit" /></div>
</form>
This is a part of Picture.php file.
function index()
{
$config['upload_path'] ='./uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png|jpeg';
$config['max_size'] = 40960000;
$config['max_width'] = 0;
$config['max_height'] = 0;
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('image'))
{
$page_data = array('files' => $file_send, 'error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$this->load->view('media/image_upload', $page_data);
}
else {...}
}
Here is where I found the null value. This is a CodeIgniter code.
public function is_allowed_filetype($ignore_mime = FALSE)
{
if ($this->allowed_types === '*')
{
return TRUE;
}
if (empty($this->allowed_types) OR ! is_array($this->allowed_types))
{
$this->set_error('upload_no_file_types', 'debug');
return FALSE;
}
$ext = strtolower(ltrim($this->file_ext, '.'));
if ( ! in_array($ext, $this->allowed_types, TRUE))
{
return FALSE;
}
// Images get some additional checks
if (in_array($ext, array('gif', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'jpe', 'png'), TRUE) && @getimagesize($this->file_temp) === FALSE)
{
return FALSE;
}
if ($ignore_mime === TRUE)
{
return TRUE;
}
// isset($this->_mimes[$ext]) is always null
if (isset($this->_mimes[$ext]))
{
return is_array($this->_mimes[$ext])
? in_array($this->file_type, $this->_mimes[$ext], TRUE)
: ($this->_mimes[$ext] === $this->file_type);
}
return FALSE;
}
If you have any suggestion for this problem, I will greatly appreciate it.
I am sorry if something is not clear. If you need more codes, I will provide them for sure.
EDIT
I am adding mimes.php
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
