mysqli_stmt_prepare fails but file is uploaded to phpmyadmin - php

Question

I have this php photo gallery, however my "mysqli_stmt_prepare" statement seems to be failing in someway. However, when I check my DB, the files that are in accordance to the upload rules, I created in my code, have been uploaded.
The message I get each time I upload a file to the DB is the one corresponding to a failed "mysqli_stmt_prepare", namely as in the code:
echo "SQL statement failed! 1"
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$newFileName = $_POST['filename'];
//sets the file name to "gallery"
if (empty($_POST['filename'])) {
$newFileName = "gallery";
//adds hyphens to empty spaces
} else {
$newFileName = strtolower(str_replace(" ", "-", $newFileName));
}
$imageTitle = $_POST['filetitle'];
$imageDesc = $_POST['filedesc'];
$file = $_FILES['file'];
$fileName = $file['name'];
$fileType = $file['type'];
$fileTempName = $file['tmp_name'];
$fileError = $file['error'];
$fileSize = $file['size'];
$fileExt = explode(".", $fileName);
$fileActualExt = strtolower(end($fileExt));
$allowed = array("jpg", "jpeg", "png", "pdf");
if (in_array($fileActualExt, $allowed)) {
if ($fileError === 0) {
if ($fileSize < 200000) {
$imageFullName = $newFileName . "." . uniqid("uniqID", false) . "." . $fileActualExt;
$fileDestination = "../gallery/" . $imageFullName;
include_once "dbh.inc.php";
if (empty($imageTitle || $imageDesc)) {
header("Location: ../gallery.php?upload=empty");
echo "You didn't include the Image Title and Image description!";
exit();
} else {
$sql = "SELECT * FROM gallerytrexatek";
$stmt = mysqli_stmt_init($conn);
if (!mysqli_stmt_prepare($stmt, $sql)) {
echo "SQL statement failed! 1";
} else {
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
$result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt);
$rowCount = mysqli_num_rows($result);
$setImageOrder = $rowCount + 1;
$sql = "INSERT INTO gallery (titleGallery, descGallery, imgFullNameGallery, orderGallery) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?);";
if (!mysqli_stmt_prepare($stmt, $sql)) {
echo "SQL statement failed! 2";
} else {
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, "ssss", $imageTitle, $imageDesc, $imageFullName, $setImageOrder);
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
move_uploaded_file($fileTempName, $fileDestination);
header("Location: ../galleryInPHP.php?upload=success");
}
}
}
} else {
echo "File Size is way to big";
exit();
}
} else {
echo "You had an error with the file";
exit();
}
} else {
echo "The file type you tried to upload is not allowed!";
exit();
}
}
?>
I expect the file to upload without problems. It seems I am overlooking something rather simple.
Hint: There are 3 files connected to this one.
1. The gallery.php where the form exists for images to be uploaded
2. The one which is pasted here
3. the DB handler file

Answer 1

Do'h, there was a problem with one of the file handler files.
