Is the the temp file there (/tmp/phpQOE2AK)? Try setting the absolute path of your data folder and see what happens.
to
PHP:
move_uploaded_file($NEWFILE,"./data/$curmember[mid]/$NEWFILE_name");
PHP:
move_uploaded_file($NEWFILE,"/absolute/path/to/data/$curmember[mid]/$NEWFILE_name");

Grizzy, what do you exactly mean under "absolute path"? According to my error message would it be:
Code:
/chroot/home/visszasz/joyridercoaching.com/html/data/$curmember[mid]/$NEWFILE_namedrnobrain

Made fast internet search, saw an example of absolute path.
"chroot/" deleted, starts with "/home..."
Still doesn't work, same error message, but with this longer "seemed-to-be-absolute-path" in the first line instead of "./data..."

Sorry man, I can't do much debugging from here. But that error means that the move_uploaded_file() function is expecting one of its parameters to be a path to a file and it's finding a directory there instead. It's got to be some sort of error realted to the path. I guess it could be permission related, but I would think the error would be different..

Okay, at least you tried your best to help, I do very appreciate it. Now I continue to search for the root of the problem.
Again: thanks for your valuable time, Grizzy!

Clearly its a path issue from what i can get of this limited info over here..this should solve the issue
upload this file to your server this will give the path to temporary directory
now store that value in a variable and append the path to the temporary file name..
Thats should solve it
PHP:
<?PHP
$tmpfile = tempnam("dummy","");
$path = dirname($tmpfile);
echo $path;
unlink($tmpfile);
?>upload this file to your server this will give the path to temporary directory
now store that value in a variable and append the path to the temporary file name..
Thats should solve it

Your $NEWFILE_name seems empty. echo your $NEWFILE_name to see the results.

Thanks for caring about me, but as I mentioned in my first post in this thread, I'm an (aaaaalmost) TOTAL IDIOT to PHP.
So the things that you suggested are "completely Chinese" to me.
I don't know how exactly apply this value to the script I attached to thread starter. What I understood is to make a php file containing this code you provided.
Okay, made a temp.php, uploaded to root, and that's it. I don't know what to do next.
