move_uploaded_file failed to open stream and Permission denied error

Question

i'm trying to upload a file but i'm getting this following errors in my browser:

Warning  move_uploaded_file(public/upload/udesignwptheme138.zip) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in <b>/home/monivbr/public_html/classes/system/Util.php on line 1803

Warning:  move_uploaded_file() [function.move-uploaded-file]: Unable to move '/tmp/phpJtBlbi' to 'public/upload/udesignwptheme138.zip' in /home/monivbr/public_html/classes/system/Util.php on line 1803

this is my php class that make uploads to my server:

            foreach ($files as $file)
            if($file['tmp_name'] != "" && $file['error'] != 4){

                if($file['size'] < 10000000000){
                    $nome_antigo = $file["name"];
                    $novo_nome = strtolower(preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z0-9_.]/", "", strtr($nome_antigo, "áàãâéêíóôõúüçÁÀÃÂÉÊÍÓÔÕÚÜÇ ", "aaaaeeiooouucAAAAEEIOOOUUC_")));


                    $query = $conexao->prepare('SELECT MAX(id) AS maxId FROM tbArquivo');
                    $query->execute();
                    $arquivo = $query->fetchObject();   

                    $caminhoArquivo = 'public/upload/';
                    $nomeArquivo = substr($novo_nome, 0, strripos($novo_nome, '.')).$arquivo->maxId;
                    if($idTipoArquivo == '6'){ //6 = arquivos xml de tradução
                        $caminhoArquivo  = 'public/traducao/';
                        $nomeArquivo = substr($novo_nome, 0, strripos($novo_nome, '.'));
                    }

                    $extensao = substr($novo_nome, strripos($novo_nome, '.'));

This line below is where is located the error:

move_uploaded_file($file["tmp_name"],$caminhoArquivo.$nomeArquivo.$extensao);




                    $query = $conexao->prepare("INSERT INTO tbArquivo
                                                (idTipoArquivo, idComplementar, idComplementar2, nomeArquivo, caminhoArquivo, tamanhoArquivo, extencaoArquivo, excluido)
                                                VALUES
                                                (:idTipoArquivo, :idComplementar, :idComplementar2, :nomeArquivo, :caminhoArquivo, :tamanhoArquivo, :extencaoArquivo, 0)");
                    $query->bindParam(":idTipoArquivo", $idTipoArquivo);
                    $query->bindParam(":idComplementar", $idComplementar);
                    $query->bindParam(":idComplementar2", $idComplementar2);
                    $query->bindParam(":nomeArquivo", $nomeArquivo);                
                    $query->bindParam(":caminhoArquivo", $caminhoArquivo);
                    $query->bindParam(":tamanhoArquivo", $file['size']);
                    $query->bindParam(":extencaoArquivo", $extensao);

                    $query->execute();

                }
            }

this is my .htaccess file:

php_value upload_max_filesize 30M
php_value post_max_size 30M
php_value max_input_time 6000000
php_value max_execution_time 6000000
php_value memory_limit 35M

this is the var_dump of the variables:

var_dump($extensao);
var_dump($file["tmp_name"]);
var_dump($caminhoArquivo);
var_dump($nomeArquivo);

string(4) ".zip" string(14) "/tmp/phpKUpN24" string(14) "public/upload/" string(17) "udesignwptheme139"

someone knows what culd be wrong ?

Your problem is defined in warning. Your web server running process do not have write permission to the folder where your trying to move the uploaded file. — chanchal118, Dec 14 '13 at 11:14
chanchal, tanks for responding... but i believe that the permission is not the problem becouse when i try to upload small files i'm having success in the upload... — user2988966, Dec 14 '13 at 11:19
Can you print the file info array? What is the size of the file? — chanchal118, Dec 14 '13 at 11:21
the permission of the upload folder is 755, and the public folder is 755 to — user2988966, Dec 14 '13 at 11:23

Maybe you can consider changing the upload folder chmod 755 or 777

chmod 777 folder_path

By this we are setting read. write and execute privilege for owner, group as well as others.

I'm getting this same error, however my permissions are already 755 or higher and everything is owned by the same user. – limeandcoconut Feb 08 '15 at 19:02

@BrassApparatus the uploads folder needs to have write permission which is 6. So your permissions need to be 765 or higher. explanation here - http://www.elated.com/articles/understanding-permissions/. I know this is an old comment but for anyone else who might have that issue. – Craicerjack Sep 22 '15 at 09:19

I did eventually fix it. +1 @Craicerjack for commenting what I should have for posterity. – limeandcoconut Sep 22 '15 at 12:38

Adding 777 chmod is VERY risky and definitely wrong. Please consider learning how permissions work. – Kirill Titov Mar 21 '16 at 09:51

Its because of the you dont have the sufficient permission on the Folder. Change this permission to read and write. That's all !

How do you do that for XAMPP in Windows? – Pathros Jul 01 '16 at 18:03

Do not change the folder path

chmod -R 777 /home/monivbr/public_html/classes/system/Util.php
