Chapter 13 - Validating Files by Type


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I am working through Chapter 13 – Validating Files by Type.

 

I get an error when I try to submit an RTF file (or any file type for that matter) through script 13.3 – upload_rtf.php

 

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function finfo_open() in C:\Apache24\htdocs\PHP_and_MySQL\Chapter13\upload_rtf.php:18 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in C:\Apache24\htdocs\PHP_and_MySQL\Chapter13\upload_rtf.php on line 18

 

Line 18 is where the resource is created to check the file type

$fileinfo = finfo_open[FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE];

 

Running PHP 7.2.1

 

Is there a setting in php.ini that needs to changed, or can you point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks,

jrakow
