I hope someone can help me with this.
I am creating a text file from the query results from a mysql DB. I then set the file to auto download. Once that is done I am trying to unlink the file. It fails to remove the file from the server. When I go to the location and manually try to delete the file it states that it is write protected.
I do not have root access to this system so I can not change the permissions on said file.
Here is the code, is there a way to not create a write protected file?
$leagueinfo = $this->livedraft_win_model->get_leagueinfo($sport, $leagueid);
$export = $this->my_model->get_export($sport, $leagueid);
$file_name = $leagueinfo['strat_id'] . '.IOD';
$export=strip_quotes($export);
$export = str_replace(", ",",",$export);
write_file('/tmp/' . $file_name, $export,'x+');
$data = file_get_contents('/tmp/' . $file_name, FILE_BINARY);
ob_clean();
force_download($file_name, $data);
array_map('unlink', glob("/tmp/*.IOD"));
I use the same unlink format to remove files that are uploaded to the same location and that works just fine. It is only when I try to remove the files that are created by codeigniter.
Thanks
Please try with below code.
$this->load->helper("url");
unlink(base_url('/tmp/' . $file_name));
Or try this
delete_files('/tmp/' . $file_name);
For more information please read this doc.

I cannot delete file by using laravel Storage::delete fuction.
My image store code is :
$logoPath = $request->file('logo')->store('images','public');
It store image at
storage/app/public/images/0HHJ5DygYUXuLC5dgu14KJTPvCEaxhISV8tpb4Pq.png
I use Storage::delete('/images/0HHJ5DygYUXuLC5dgu14KJTPvCEaxhISV8tpb4Pq.png'); to delete it. But it not working;
What I have tried is:
Storage::delete(asset('storage/images/0HHJ5DygYUXuLC5dgu14KJTPvCEaxhISV8tpb4Pq.png'));
Storage::delete(storage_path('images/0HHJ5DygYUXuLC5dgu14KJTPvCEaxhISV8tpb4Pq.png'));`
Even I try to delete some picture at public folder. It's not working.
Storage::delete(public_path('images/logo3.png'));
Did I do something wrong?
this is what works for me, hopefully it works for you too:
Storage::delete('public/images/0HHJ5DygYUXuLC5dgu14KJTPvCEaxhISV8tpb4Pq.png');
The delete method accepts a single filename to remove from the disk:
Storage::delete('public/images/filename.png');
This is the php way of deleting a file. unlink() function.
$file = $request->input('filename');
unlink(storage_path('app/public/images/' . $file));
I am using Zipper to extract uploaded zip file and delete the file after extract.
So I upload and extract like this:
$f = $request['file']->move(public_path($directory), $fullFileName);
\Zipper::make($f)->extractTo(public_path($directory) . $fileName);
and it works great. I've tried to delete the file using these ways.
1 - Storage::disk('products')->delete($fullFileName);
2 - File::delete(public_path($directory) . $fullFileName);
3 - $del = unlink(public_path($directory) . $fullFileName);
but in all actions get resource temporarily unavailable error.
I found this error is because of the zipper (simple files and directories works).
so my question is, How can I delete upload zip file after extract, using a zipper?
Any idea would be great.
thanks in advance.
You need to call $zipper->close(); after you extract it, so if you do something like this it should work:
$zipper = new \Chumper\Zipper\Zipper;
$zipper->make($f)->extractTo(public_path($directory) . $fileName);
$zipper->close();
unlink(public_path($directory) . $fullFileName);
If you do not close the zipper it will not write the result to the disk and keep the original file locked. See the documentation.
$zip = new Zipper;
$zip->make($pathZipFile)->extractTo($destinationPath);
$zip->close(); // important
unlink($pathZipFile); // delete Zip file after
I am having a problem with move_uploaded_file().
I am trying to upload a image path to a database, which is working perfectly and everything is being uploaded and stored into the database correctly.
However, for some reason the move_uploaded_file is not working at all, it does not produce the file in the directory where I want it to, in fact it doesn't produce any file at all.
The file uploaded in the form has a name of leftfileToUpload and this is the current code I am using.
$filetemp = $_FILES['leftfileToUpload']['tmp_name'];
$filename = $_FILES['leftfileToUpload']['name'];
$filetype = $_FILES['leftfileToUpload']['type'];
$filepath = "business-ads/".$filename;
This is the code for moving the uploaded file.
move_uploaded_file($filetemp, $filepath);
Thanks in advance
Try this
$target_dir = "business-ads/";
$filepath = $target_dir . basename($_FILES["leftfileToUpload"]["name"]);
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["leftfileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], $filepath)
Reference - click here
Try using the real path to the directory you wish to upload to.
For instance "/var/www/html/website/business-ads/".$filename
Also make sure the web server has write access to the folder.
You need to check following details :
1) Check your directory "business-ads" exist or not.
2) Check your directory "business-ads" has permission to write files.
You need to give permission to write in that folder.
make sure that your given path is correct in respect to your current file path.
you may use.
if (is_dir("business-ads"))
{
move_uploaded_file($filetemp, $filepath);
} else {
die('directory not found.');
}
I am trying to upload pdf file using Yii's CUploadFile. In my Controller:
$model->recipe_file_url = CUploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'recipe_file_url');
$file = $model->recipe_file_url;
$model->recipe_file_url->saveAs('images\uploads\\' . $file);
It is supposed to save the file in uploads directory under images directory, but it uploads it in the root directory with this name images\uploads\$file. How to solve this? any help?
Well, i got it myself. It was simple, I tried:
$model->recipe_file_url->saveAs('images/uploads/' . $file);
and it worked!
I'm using codeigniter to create a CSV file, and I can write successfully inside the application structure, but not outside. The reason why I want to create the file outside the application structure cause I get a 403 permissions error when linking to the file.
Either my folder permissions are wrong (I've used 777) or my code is wrong. Please help.
The application is sitting at: domain.com/mysite/ci/
The files created in: domain.com/mysite/ci/_/files/ (I can create the file here, but can't link to download it
I would like to create the file in: domain.com/mysite/downloads/ (I cannot create the file here, but I can link stuff to it to download.
CodeIgniter
$this->load->dbutil();
$this->load->helper('file');
$delimiter = ",";
$newline = "\r\n";
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM songlist");
$data = $this->dbutil->csv_from_result($query, $delimiter, $newline);
$filePath = '_/files/songlist.csv';
echo "filePath=". $filePath. "</br>";
if (! write_file($filePath, $data)){
echo 'not done';
} else {
echo anchor(base_url(). $filePath);
}
}
I think the problem is that "_" is not a valid folder for web. Try changing it.
If you want to create the file in "mysite/downloads" you filepath would be:
$filePath = '../downloads/songlist.csv';
And i see no reason you shouldn't be able to create it there.
