PhoneGap Upload Error : FILE_NOT_FOUND_ERR (code=1)

Question

I got an error when uploading a file.

So, I get a list of files using "fileSystem.root" , and i put my selected file name to a variabel "selected_file".

And here is the code:

//assume ROOT = fileSystem.root and selected_file = c360_debug.txt

var options = new FileUploadOptions();
options.params = $("#myform").serialize();

ROOT.getFile(selected_file, null, function (fileEntry) {
    fileEntry.file(
        function (properties) {
            options.fileKey="newfile";
            options.fileName = properties.name;
            options.mimeType = properties.type;
            var ft = new FileTransfer();
            ft.upload(
                fileEntry.fullPath,
                "http://abc.php",
                function (r) {
                    //do something
                }, onTransferError, options);
        }, onFileError);
} , getRootFailed);

Everytime I upload a file, it gives an "FILE_NOT_FOUND_ERR" error. How come ??? The file is exist and I can select the file because it was retrieved by "fileSystem.root". I've tried {create: true}, {create: true, exclusive: false}, and {create: true, exclusive: true}, but nothing works.

Here is my LogCat:

So, any idea what is wrong?

Answer 1

I just solved the problem. It caused by a php function from Moodle :

error("Course module is incorrect");

Answer 2

There is just a little change you have to do: not using fileEntry.fullPath but fileEntry.toURI()

var options = new FileUploadOptions();
options.params = $("#myform").serialize();

ROOT.getFile(selected_file, null, function (fileEntry) {
    fileEntry.file(
        function (properties) {
            options.fileKey="newfile";
            options.fileName = properties.name;
            options.mimeType = properties.type;
            var ft = new FileTransfer();
            ft.upload(
                fileEntry.toURI(),
                "http://abc.php",
                function (r) {
                    //do something
                }, onTransferError, options);
        }, onFileError);
} , getRootFailed);

You are not reading the error correctly. The file /mnt/sdcard/c360_debug.txt is found but what is throwing the file not found exception is http://abc.php which plainly does not exist. I hope you are not trying to run a php file on your device.
