move_uploaded_file not working but no error - php

Question

I have been having an issue with my code, specifically with the move_uploaded_file. I changed the folder I keep the images in's permissions to 777 to make sure it wasn't a problem with the permissions. I also read a php manual on how to use move_uploaded_file of w3schools.com. I have run out of ideas on how to upload my image to a folder using php. Please help.
Here is the portion of the code with the move_uploeaded_file:
<?php
if (#$_GET['action'] == "ci"){
echo "<form action='account.php?action=ci' method='POST' enctype='multipart/form-data'><br />
Available file extention: <stong>.PNG .JPG .JPEG</stong><br /><br />
<input type='file' name='image' /><br />
<input type='submit' name='change_pic' value='Change' /><br />
</form>";
if (isset($_POST['change_pic'])) {
$errors = array();
$allowed_e = array('png', 'jpg', 'jpeg');
$file_name = $_FILES['image']['name'];
$file_e = strtolower(pathinfo($file_name, PATHINFO_EXTENSION));
$file_s = $_FILES['image']['size'];
$file_tmp = $_FILES['image']['tmp_name'];
if(in_array($file_e, $allowed_e) === false) {
$errors[] = 'This file extension is not allowed.';
}
if ($file_s > 2097152) {
$errors[] = 'File size must be under 2MB';
}
if (empty($errors)) {
move_uploaded_file($file_tmp, '../images/'.$file_name);
$image_up = '../images/'.$file_name;
$check = mysqli_query($connect, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE usename='".#$_SESSION['username']."'");
$rows = mysqli_num_rows($check);
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($check)) {
$db_image = $row['profile_pic'];
}
if($query = mysqli_query($connect, "UPDATE users SET profile_pic = '".$image_up."' WHERE username='".$_SESSION['username']."'"))
echo "You have successfuly changed your profile picture!";
} else {
foreach($errors as $error) {
echo $error, '<br />';
}
}
}
}
?>

Here's the last chunk of the code, slightly rewritten. move_uploaded_file returns a boolean, so we can test if it's true or false by setting up a variable $result:
if (empty($errors)) {
$image_up = 'images/'.$file_name;
$result = move_uploaded_file($file_tmp, $image_up);
if($result){
//this line had a typo usename -> username
//Also, you should change this over to using parameters and binding values ASAP. This leaves you open to hacking.
$check = mysqli_query($connect, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='".#$_SESSION['username']."'");
$rows = mysqli_num_rows($check);
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($check)) {
$db_image = $row['profile_pic'];
}
$q = "UPDATE users SET profile_pic = '".$image_up."' WHERE username='".$_SESSION['username']."'";
if($query = mysqli_query($connect, $q)){
echo "You have successfuly changed your profile picture!";
}
} else {
echo "Upload failed.";
}
} else {
foreach($errors as $error) {
echo $error, '<br />';
}
}
}
}
