PHP Video upload not storing values in DB and in DIR - php

Question

This code has no error, checked the console no errors, print_r($temp) gives proper result.
print_r($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"]) gives proper result but the values are no stored in the
phpMyAdmin Db and in the uploaded_videos dir. The last line is also not printed on the screen
<?php
include("database_connection.php");
$allowedExtn = array("mp4","mov","avi","wmv","flv","mpeg");
$temp = explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$extension = end($temp);
$videoname = $_FILES["file"]["name"];
if((($_FILES["file"]["type"]=="video/mp4")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"]=="video/mov")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"]=="video/avi")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"]=="video/wmv")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"]=="video/flv")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"]=="video/mpeg"))
&& in_array($extension, $allowedExtn))
{
if($_FILES["files"]["error"]>0)
{
echo "Error in Uploading video ". $_FILES["file"]["name"];
}
else
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "uploaded_videos/" .
$_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$filepath = "uploaded_videos/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];
$query = "INSERT INTO video_upload (username, video_name, video_ext,
video_url) VALUES ('Venkat', 'videoname','$extension','$filepath')";
mysql_query($query);
print_r($query);
mysql_close();
echo "Video " .$videoname . " saved.";
}
}
?>
Can anyone please tell me where is the short coming..??

Answer 1

If you are on linux and have access to the filesystem then check the permissions and ownership of the uploaded_videos directory (use ls -la or similar) if you need to change them then look up chmod and chown or use your cpanel? interface.
Make sure also that the directory exists where you think it does (in the same directory as the script you are running).
The first task to sort out is the writing to disk - I'd suggest commenting out the mysql for now.
Also try it with a small file that has a shortish filename with no funny characters or spaces first.
Turn on error reporting in your script error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors',true)
and check the return value of move_uploaded_file
if it is false with no errors then check the file
if it is false with errors then check the filesystem (and the errors)

First of all use MySQLI or PDO for your queries.
$insertQuery = " INSERT INTO `databaseName`.`tableName` (`username`,`video_name`,`video_ext`, `video_url`) VALUES ('Venkat','videoname','$extension','$filepath') ";
$insertQueryResult = $connector->query($insertQuery);
I think you should put the
$filepath = 'uploaded_videos/'.$_FILES['file']['name'];
below of the :
$videoname = $_FILES['file']['name'];
This is just a simple sample for using MySQLI. You can refer to THIS LINK
