What is "SplFileInfo::getSize(): stat failed for C:\wamp64\tmp\phpA213.tmp?"

Here's my code:

public function store(VideoRequest $request)
    {
        //
		$validated = $request->validated();
		$movie = new Video;
		
		if($request->hasFile('thumbnail')) {
			$file = $request->file('thumbnail');
			$thumbnail = $file->getClientOriginalName();
			$movie->thumbnail=$thumbnail;
			$file->move('assets/img', $thumbnail);
		}
			
		$movie->title=$validated['title'];
		$movie->description=$validated['description'];
		$movie->filename=$validated['filename'];
		$success='Video was successfully created!';
		
		if($movie->save()) {
			return View::make('/admin/displayVideo')
			->with('film', $movie)
			->with('newVideo', 'Here\'s the video you just created!');
		}
    }

It works!

All of the text, filenames etc are uploaded to the database and the thumbnail is accurately loaded into the appropriate directory..

But...

I get this error:

SplFileInfo::getSize(): stat failed for C:\wamp64\tmp\phpA213.tmp
(1/1) RuntimeException
SplFileInfo::getSize(): stat failed for C:\wamp64\tmp\phpA213.tmp

If I refresh the page, the error goes away and I get an alert that that the filenam is already taken. And that's because everything was added and uploaded correctly..

So why am I getting this error?

Here's my Request file:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Requests;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;

class VideoRequest extends FormRequest
{
    /**
     * Determine if the user is authorized to make this request.
     *
     * @return bool
     */
    public function authorize()
    {
        return true;
    }

    /**
     * Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
     *
     * @return array
     */
    public function rules()
    {
        return [
            //
			'title' => 'required', 
			'filename' =>'required | unique:videos',
			'description' => 'required'
        ];
    }
	
	public function messages()
    {
        return [
            'title is.required' => 'title is required!',
            'filename is.required' => 'don\'t forget to include your video file!',
			'descirption is.required' => 'be sure to include the description'
        ];
    }
}

What do yo uthink?

Chris Stanyon

Hey Bruce,

Not entirely sure what's going on, but that error indicates that somewhere in your code, it's trying to get the size of the file that's been uploaded (the temp file), but because you've moved it, it no longer exists, so it can't get the size.

You may also want to check your php.ini and see what the upload_max_filesize is set to (you might be exceeding that).

Chris!

I did check the upload size settings and I'm gold, so I know that's not an issue.

As far as the "movement" of the uploaded file, is there a sequence of events that I need to be sensitive to?

At what point is the system attempting to get the size of the file? I'm just following my nose with all this, but I'm dropping the ball somewhere...

Chris Stanyon

Hey Bruce,

Bit of a baffling one. I've just replicated your code (as much as I can see) and it works exactly as it should - no warnings / exceptions. I can't see where it's trying to get the file size, so if you're not explicitly asking for it, maybe something behind the scenes is requesting it.

Time to go full debug mode - start off by commenting out the $file->move line. If the error stops, uncomment it and then try just dumping the $movie object:

if($movie->save()) {
    dd($movie);
}

Open in new window

We'll need to figure out which line is triggering the getSize() call. Also, is there anything in your Video model or Views that could potentially be the problem.

Out of interest, what version of Laravel are you running.

Bruce Gust

ASKER

OK, Chris!

This did the trick:

	if($request->hasFile('thumbnail')) {
			$file = $request->file('thumbnail');
			$thumbnail = $file->getClientOriginalName();
			$file->move('assets/img', $thumbnail);
			$movie->thumbnail=$thumbnail;
		}
			
		$movie->title=$validated['title'];
		$movie->description=$validated['description'];
		$movie->filename=$validated['filename'];
		$success='Video was successfully created!';

Open in new window

This is what I had:

$movie->thumbnail=$thumbnail;
$file->move('assets/img', $thumbnail);

I changed the order so the "move" happened before I attempted to store it.

Why would that make a differrence?

Chris Stanyon

Hmmm. Logically, it shouldn't make a difference. Possibly a bug in the version of Laravel you're using (you haven't said which version), or perhaps you have some additional code / trait in your Video Model. As it stands, by reversing those lines, it would appear that this line:

$movie->thumbnail=$thumbnail;

is calling the getSize() method, but that in itself is just setting a property to a string value (unless your Model has additional functionality)

If you're using a version of Laravel later than 5.5 (I tihnk), then you shouldn't really be using the move() method. You should be using the store() method instead. Not sure if that's related.

I'm pretty certain I'm running Laravel 6. I'll check when I get home later this afternoon.
