Fwd: Uploading Files with LiveCode Server

Sun Dec 29 15:29:05 EST 2013

Hi Gregory,

Sorry. As i never went in this way to design files upload procedures, i will not be the more able to help to get this up and running. Perhaps should you follow the LiveCode example you spoken about yesterday. Comparing the way it works under PHP could help too ;_/

Note : you would normally not have to handle the file move by shell : it works out of the box on livecode server using :

put url ("binfile://pathtocurrentfiledestination.pdf") into url ("binfile://pathtonewfiledestination.pdf")

> Thank you kindly sharing your code. I’m afraid that it is a little too advance for my skills, and my needs are much simpler. I am able to create an upload form and move the uploaded file from the tmp folder on my Mac to another folder using a shell command. There are only two problems left that I need to fix. One is that an internal server error occurs (error 500) and it is output to the web page. The other problem is that the moved file has read and write access for group _WWW but no access for anyone else.

> <html>
> <head></head>
> <body>
> <H1>Upload Form</H1>
> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="submitAssignmentScript.lc" method="POST">
> Choose a file to upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br />
> <input type="submit" value="Upload File" />
> </form>
> </body>
> </html>
> 
> where the action, “submitAssignmentScript.lc”, simply refers to a handler named submitAssignment in a stack named myServer

> <?lc
> start using stack myServer.livecode
> submitAssignment

> The handler contains the following
> 
> on submitAssignment
>   put the keys of $_Files[uploadedfile] into theKeys
>   put the long date && long time & return into output
>   repeat for each line thisLine in theKeys
>      put thisLine & ":" && $_Files[uploadedfile][thisLine] & return after output
>   end repeat
>   delete the last character of output
>   put output into url (dataFilePath & "Upload Info.csv") 
>   get shell ("mv" && $_Files[uploadedfile][filename] && "../share/httpd/myData/" & “Uploaded-File.pdf") 
> end submitAssignment
> 
> where “Upload Info.csv” contains some information from $_Files.
> 
> If anyone can help me figure out why I’m getting the the internal server error and how I can change the moved file’s permissions, I’d much appreciate it.
