I am uploading three files using Zend Element File. I am uploading and renaming the files. Now the problem is that when uploading same extension, it generates error of
Zend_Filter_Exception: File 'D:\wamp2\tmp\php2443.tmp' could not be renamed. It already exists.
For example if in first file I upload file of extenstiono .txt
in second I upload .docx
and in third I again select .txt
or .docx
, It will generate the above given error.
But If I select three different extensions, every thing goes best. I am using the following code
if ($form->med_file_1->isUploaded()) {
$originalFilename = pathinfo($form->med_file_1->getFileName());
$newFilename = time() . '.' . $originalFilename['extension'];
$form->med_file_1->addFilter('Rename', "application_data/uploaded_files/patients/" . $newFilename,$originalFilename['basename']);
$form->med_file_1->receive();
}
if ($form->med_file_2->isUploaded()) {
$originalFilename = pathinfo($form->med_file_2->getFileName());
$newFilename = time() . '.' . $originalFilename['extension'];
$form->med_file_2->addFilter('Rename', "application_data/uploaded_files/patients/" . $newFilename,$originalFilename['basename']);
$form->med_file_2->receive();
}
if ($form->med_file_3->isUploaded()) {
$originalFilename = pathinfo($form->med_file_3->getFileName());
$newFilename = time() . '.' . $originalFilename['extension'];
$form->med_file_3->addFilter('Rename', "application_data/uploaded_files/patients/" . $newFilename,$originalFilename['basename']);
$form->med_file_3->receive();
}
The reason for the error is because you are naming each uploaded file:
time() . '.' . $originalFilename['extension'];
The call to receive()
happens so fast that time()
returns the same value on each call so you can end up with duplicate file names. You just need to generate a more unique name for each file. Something like the following should work:
md5(uniqid(time(), true)) . '.' . $originalFilename['extension'];
//or
$originalFilename['basename'] . '_' . time() . '.' . $originalFilename['extension'];
