Php Experts,
For some reason I can’t get the “if(file_exists” to work. I don’t want the user uploading the same file again. If he tries then should get error alert: “Error: You have already uploaded a video file to verify your ID!”
On the comments, I have written in CAPITALS such as: IS THIS LINE CORRECT ? IS THIS LINE OK ? IS LINE OK ? CORRECT ?
I need your attention most on those particular lines to tell me if I wrote those lines correct or not.
Those are the places where I need your attention the most to tell me if I made any mistakes on those lines or not and if so then what the mistakes are.
If you spot any other errors then kindly let me know. I’d appreciate sample snippets (as your corrections to my mistakes on the mistaken code lines) to what you think I should substitute my lines to.
Thank You!
Here is my attempt:
[code]

//Required PHP Files.
include ‘config.php’;
include ‘header.php’;
include ‘account_header.php’;
if (!$conn)
{
$error = mysqli_connect_error();
$errno = mysqli_connect_errno();
print “$errno: $errorn”;
exit();
}
if($_SERVER[“REQUEST_METHOD”] == “POST”)
{
//Check whether the file was uploaded or not without any errors.
if(!isset($_FILES[“id_verification_video_file”]) && $_FILES[“id_verification_video_file”][“Error”] == 0)
{
$Errors = Array();
$Errors[] = “Error: ” . $_FILES[“id_verification_video_file”] [“ERROR”];
print_r($_FILES); ?><br><?php
print_r($_ERRORS);
exit();
}

exit();
}
else

Error reporting is in one of the included files. Like so:
[code]
<?php
//ERROR REPORTING CODES.
declare(strict_types=1);
ini_set(‘display_errors’, ‘1’);
ini_set(‘display_startup_errors’, ‘1’);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR | MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);
?>
