File Upload Permission Error

My code is

<?php
if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg"))
&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 20000))
  {
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
    {
    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
    }
  else
    {
    echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
    echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
    echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
    echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";

    if (file_exists("upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
      {
      echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
      }
    else
      {
      move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
      "/home/username/public_html/upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
      echo "Stored in: " . "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];
      }
    }
  }
else
  {
  echo "Invalid file";
  }
?>

PHP:

and then i get an error saying:


Warning: move_uploaded_file(upload/banner.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/username/public_html/upload/index.php on line 42

Warning: move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phppMwQ2k' to 'upload/banner.jpg' in /home/username/public_html/upload/index.php on line 42

can anyone solve this problem? it's really annoying

 

Check upload directory's write permission in "/home/username/public_html/upload/"

It could be a problem with permissions, chmod the upload folder to 757,

Or it's often a problem with the path, it might not exist, I see you have "username" in there, shouldn't it be your username? or is your username username

 

Good point.

Try CHMOD 755

 

Shouldn't you move the file first and then echo were its been uploaded too?

 

okay thanks everyone for your help. i had to chmod it to 757. now it's working fine!
