I am trying to create a form with PHPMailer that allows me to send files. Sometimes it goes well but most of the time I get the following error:
'Failed to move file to C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mywebsite.nl\tmp\4a47EC1.tmp.jpg '.
This is the code:
<?php
//Import PHPMailer classes into the global namespace
//These must be at the top of your script, not inside a function
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\SMTP;
require 'phpmailer/src/Exception.php';
require 'phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php';
require 'phpmailer/src/SMTP.php';
$msg = '';
if (array_key_exists('userfile', $_FILES)) {
//First handle the upload
//Don't trust provided filename - same goes for MIME types
//See http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php#114004 for more thorough upload validation
//Extract an extension from the provided filename
$ext = PHPMailer::mb_pathinfo($_FILES['userfile']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
//Define a safe location to move the uploaded file to, preserving the extension
$uploadfile = tempnam(sys_get_temp_dir(), hash('sha256', $_FILES['userfile']['name'])) . '.' . $ext;
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
//Upload handled successfully
//Now create a message
$mail = new PHPMailer();
//Server settings
//$mail->SMTPDebug = SMTP::DEBUG_SERVER; //Enable verbose debug output
$mail->isSMTP(); //Send using SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp.mail.yahoo.com'; //Set the SMTP server to send through
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; //Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'myemail@yahoo.com'; //SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'mypassword'; //SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl'; //Enable TLS encryption; `PHPMailer::ENCRYPTION_SMTPS` encouraged
$mail->Port = 465; //TCP port to connect to, use 465 for `PHPMailer::ENCRYPTION_SMTPS` above
$mail->setFrom('myemail@yahoo.com', 'First Last');
$mail->addAddress('myemail@yahoo.com', 'John Doe');
$mail->Subject = 'PHPMailer file sender';
$mail->Body = 'My message body';
//Attach the uploaded file
if (!$mail->addAttachment($uploadfile, 'My uploaded file')) {
$msg .= 'Failed to attach file ' . $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
}
if (!$mail->send()) {
$msg .= 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else {
$msg .= 'Message sent!';
}
}
else {
$msg .= 'Failed to move file to ' . $uploadfile;
}
}
?>

</form>
<?php } else {
echo htmlspecialchars($msg);
} ?>
</div>

Does anyone have an idea how this is possible?
Thanks in advance for responses
I have found the solution.
I have removed the hidden input line.
