PHP IDE :: NuSphere Forums :: View topic - Uploading files using POST/multipart/form-data

Posted: Mon Jun 20, 2011 4:37 pm

I am using PhpEd 6.0 build 6026 with the built-in server on Windows 7. I find that when I try to upload a file using POST and multipart/form-data that the system freezes without ever reaching the target php page. The same code works just fine on Windows 7 (64 bit) with IIS and PHP 5.2.12.

It's worth noting that the same code run on a 32-bit Windows XP machine with PhpEd 5.9 build 5933 works fine. So it is possible that this is a 64-bit problem and it's possible that it's a 6.0 problem.

Here are two sample files that demonstrate the failure:

File whbSend.php

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="whbReceive.php" method="POST">
Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" />
<input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

File whbReceive.php

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<?php
echo($_FILES['userfile']['name']);
?>
</body>
</html>

When run under Windows/IIS, when you upload a file the WHBReceive file displays the file name. When run under PHPEd, when you upload the same file the result is a blank page with no source.

PS: This turned out to be a bug in the internal Web server SRV. It was fixed in release 6030.
