            if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0) {

                        move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'], UPLOAD_DIR.$file['name']);
                        echo "OK";
                    }
                }
            }
        } 
        else {
            echo "Invalid file";
        }
    }
    ?>
</body>

Solution

Change this:

define("UPLOAD_DIR", "/home/me/Scrivania/prova");

To this:

define("UPLOAD_DIR", "/home/me/Scrivania/prova/");

Tested your script on my server and works fine, just needed that extra slash on the end, because the url to where the file is to be uploaded to is translates to:

/home/me/Scrivania/provafile.txt

when it should be

/home/me/Scrivania/prova/file.txt

-- Edit --

Also if you intend on using the ext array change the if statement to the following:

if ( in_array($temp[1], $allowedExts) ) {

OTHER TIPS

Change this

move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'], UPLOAD_DIR.$file['name']);

to this

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], UPLOAD_DIR.'/'.$_FILES['file']['name']);
