The following validation is being done in my model
'image' => array(
'uploadErrror' => array(
'rule' => 'uploadError',
'message' => 'The image upload failed.',
'allowEmpty'=> True
),
'mimeType' => array(
'rule' => array('mimeType',array('image/gif','image/png','image/jpeg')),
'message' => 'Please only upload images (gif, png, jpg).',
'allowEmpty' => true
),
'fileSize'=> array(
'rule' => array('fileSize', '<=', '1MB'),
'message' => 'Image must be less than 1MB.',
'allowEmpty' => true
),
'processImageUpload' => array(
'rule' => 'processImageUpload',
'message' => 'Unable to process image upload.',
'allowEmpty'=> true
) )
public function processImageUpload($check = array()){
if(!is_uploaded_file($check['image']['tmp_name']))
{
return FALSE;
}
$targetdir = WWW_ROOT . 'img' . DS . 'uploads' . DS . $check['image']['name'];
if(!move_uploaded_file($check['image']['tmp_name'],$targetdir))
{
return false;
}
$this->data[$this->alias]['image'] = 'uploads' . DS . $check['image']['name'];
return true;
}
The error I am receiving is the below, I also enabled debug 2 but no further clarification was provided.
Can not determine the mimetype.
I have already tried un-commenting
extension=php_fileinfo.dll
and restarted WAMPServer fully but it still did not work.
Also in the controller class I have the following code for add
public function add() {
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$this->Image->create();
$data = $this->request->data['Image'];
if (!$data['image']['name'])
{
$this->Session->setFlash(__('There was no image provided.'));
}
if ($this->Image->save($data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The image has been saved.'));
return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The image could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
}
}
}
Add View Code
<?php echo $this->Form->create('Image',array('type'=>'file')); ?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php echo __('Add Image'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('description');
echo $this->Form->input('image',array('type'=>'file'));
echo $this->Form->input('property_id');
?>
</fieldset>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit')); ?>
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The closes solution which isn't checking mime but just extension is
$ext = substr(strtolower(strrchr($check['image']['name'], '.')), 1); //get the extension
$arr_ext = array('jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif'); //set allowed extensions
if (in_array($ext, $arr_ext)) {
//upload code
}
else
{
return 'Please only upload images (gif, png, jpg).';
}
