Hi jefferybsu

There was an issue with BASEDIR in Chapter 6, file upload.php,
See the post
Chapter 6, Ajax File Manager, error in upload.php file

Check your php.ini file for variables regarding file uploads.
See the post
Chap 2 - Avatars and uploading files, (would apply to Chap 6 too)

I am on a Unix system, here is a sample of a path. Later on
you can change the path, but you can do this to start. At the start of
chapter 7, on page 177, the last two paragraphs, the author discusses
where to put the directory.

Code:

define('BASEDIR', '/usr/home/yourname/www/htdocs/yourproject/public_files/files');

I hope this helps.
