I'm using plupload to upload files to my webapp. I need to upload some xls files but upload fails for some of them. I have no ideea why the upload fails, but I get an error on move_uploaded_file.
I don't now why some upload files are not working. In the following are snippets of my code.
var uploader = new plupload.Uploader({
runtimes: 'html5,flash',
containes: 'plupload',
browse_button: 'browse',
drop_element: 'droparea',
url: 'include/myPlupload.php',
flash_swf_url: 'javascripts/plupload/plupload.flash.swf',
multipart: true,
urlstream_upload: true,
multipart_params:{directory: 'test'},
max_file_size: '15mb',
filters:[
{ title: 'Spreadsheet', extensions: 'xls,xlsx,ods' }
]
});
and parts of my PHP code, looks like this ....
error_reporting(-1);
// HTTP headers for no cache etc
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");
// ... ...
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $new_path.$_FILES['file']['name'])){
echo $html = '<div class="uploadedFile">'. basename($v) .'</div>';
} else {
echo 'error on uploading file';
}
The problem is that upload fails on some files only. If I try to upload the same file from another computer that file upload succeeds but upload fails on other files.

I have a file in excel and I am converting it to pdf using phpexcel. It is displaying russian letters as ????
Here is the code that is responsible for conversion:
public function exportToExcel($phpExcelObject)
{
header("Expires: Mon, 1 Apr 1974 05:00:00 GMT");
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D,d M YH:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel", 'charset=UTF-8');
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=matrix.xls");
$objWriter = new PHPExcel_Writer_Excel5($phpExcelObject);
$objWriter->save('php://output');
}
Could you please help me?
First, check the folder which includes fonts supported by domPDF. Then, If there are any font which ends with .ttf, apply this font-family to the corresponding cells of PhpExcel Object. Then it works.
$sheet->getStyle('A1')->getFont()->setName('dejavu sans');
in my application i need to download a excel file created with some data in a db(postgresql), when i force the download sending headers
function createExcel($filename, $arrydata) {
$excelfile = "xlsfile://tmp/".$filename;
$fp = fopen($excelfile, "wb");
if (!is_resource($fp)) {
die("Error al crear $excelfile");
}
fwrite($fp, serialize($arrydata));
fclose($fp);
header ("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
header ("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D,d M YH:i:s") . " GMT");
header ("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
header ("Pragma: no-cache");
header ("Content-type: application/x-msexcel; charset=utf-8");
header ("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"" . $filename . "\"" );
readfile($excelfile);
error_log("headers");
}
it downloads but it reads it as a cvs file and ask me for formating, but when i go to /tmp in my browser and click the file it downloads it as an excel file and shows the data just as i have put it in the code
I'm trying to load an mp3 into JW Player 5 using php to retrieve the actual file. This is the javascript code for the player:
jwplayer('mediaplayer').setup({
'flashplayer': 'player.swf',
'id': 'playerID',
'type': 'mp3',
'width': '600',
'height': '49',
'file': '/get_mp3/<?php echo $filename; ?>',
});
The file attribute has the URL to the PHP function (I use CakepHP, the part after the last / is the variable that the function gets passed).
This is the PHP function:
function get_mp3($filename) {
$file_path = '/path/to/files/' .$filename. '.mp3';
header("pragma : no-cache");
header("Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: audio/mpeg3");
header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=" .$filename. ".mp3");
header("Content-Location: " .$filename. ".mp3");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($file_path));
readfile($file_path);
}
If I call that function via web browser (for example mydomain.com/get_mp3/test_file) it prompts to download the right file, which seems to show that the PHP code is working.
However, when I use it on JW PLayer's file attribute it doesn't load anything or shows any kind of error.
I've tried adapting what's shown in this SO question but I couldn't make it work, I don't know if it's because for video it's different or because that mentoins JW PLayer 6 and mine is 5.
EDIT: test if it's an issue with CakePHP
So test if the issue is that for some reason CakePHP isn't working with JW Player I've put the following PHP code in an external PHP file:
$filename= 'my_filename';
$file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']. '/path/to/files/' .$filename. '.mp3';
header("pragma : no-cache");
header("Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: audio/x-mp3");
header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=" .$filename. ".mp3");
header("Content-Location: " .$filename. ".mp3");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($file));
readfile($file);
So now, the file line in the JW Player declaration reads like:
'file': '/get_mp3.php',
With that it still doesn't work. If I access the get_mp3.php page directly I get prompted to download the file, so again looks like the PHP code works...
EDIT 2
SO I've found the culprit of the issue: the path of the audio file. If I put the file in the root folder of the website, and I use the file path variable like $file_path = $filename. '.mp3'; it works fine.
The problem is that the audio files are in a different folder in the same server, and I can't move them... How can I change the PHP script to find the files in their current path? I've already tried with $file = '/path/to/files/' .$filename. '.mp3'; and $file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']. '/path/to/files/' .$filename. '.mp3'; but it doesn't work...
Change your content type to ("Content-Type: audio/x-mp3");
So it turns out my problem was in the path to the file in the PHP script. I was using $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] and just / for the paths and it wasn't working, but then I realized that moving the file to the same folder as the script would work. In my case I still needed to find a way to access those files from a different folder, and using a relative path did the trick. Something like:
$filename= 'my_filename';
$file = '../../../path/to/files/' .$filename. '.mp3';
header("pragma : no-cache");
header("Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: audio/x-mp3");
header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=" .$filename. ".mp3");
header("Content-Location: " .$filename. ".mp3");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($file));
readfile($file);
Since you are using JW5.
Under:
'file': '/get_mp3/<?php echo $filename; ?>',
Add:
'provider': 'sound',
i want to create a link to download an excel file from the root in server computer, using php. so i wrote a simple code as below,

header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header('Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel');
header('Content-Disposition: inline; filename="'.basename($file).'"');
header("Content-Length: " . $filesize);
$fh = fopen("$file, "rb");
// output file
while(!feof($fh))
{
# output file without bandwidth limiting
print(fread($fh, filesize($file)));
}
fclose($fh);
<?php
$docName = "testdoc";

Hi I got this following code from google to generate a Doc file by php. But I am unable to put any image there. Can anybody help me with it?
It requires the link, you will need to host the images online in order for the image to be shown on the doc.
Try this and it is working:-
echo "<img src='http://i.imgur.com/MJ5Sa.jpg' />";
