PHP upload script not functioning and no error on apache logs - php

Question

I created an upload script using the resources from tizag, the script is returning an onscreen error however no error in the apache logs.
HTML Form
<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="90000000" />
Select video to upload:
Please choose a file: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />
</form>
PHP Code
<?php
$target_path = "/var/www/html/upload/";
$target = $target_path . basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name'][0] );
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'] [0], $target_path))
{
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadefile']['name'] [0]). " has been uploaded";
}
else {
echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.";
}
?>
This shouldn't be very hard to impliment, but with no errors on apache it's very hard for me to troubleshoot. My php knowlegdge is limited so please bare that in mind.
Kind Regards,

Answer 1

This line:
$target = $target_path . basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name'][0] );
As it stands, $target is just a stray variable and not being used anywhere else.
It should read as:
$target_path = $target_path . basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name'][0] );
"I created an upload script using the resources from tizag"
The Tizag tutorial you followed doesn't change their variables.
Their example:
$target_path = "uploads/";
$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']).
" has been uploaded";
} else{
echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}

Plus, you have a typo in ['uploadefile'] which should read as ['uploadedfile']

Answer 2

First ensure that php is configured to allow file upload.
in your "php.ini" file search for the directive, and set it ON,
file_uploads= ON
