CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I'm on Drupal 6.2.xx and Civicrm 4.1.6


$params = array(
'contact_id' => '123',
'contact_type' => 'Individual',
'version' => '3',
'custom_72' => './sites/default/files/civicrm/custom/filetest1.jpg' ,  );
   
$result = civicrm_api( 'contact','create',$params );

The above will just send me to the front page of my website.

This is the warning I get about it in the log.

PHP Warning:  rename(.,/var/www/html/sites/default/files/civicrm/custom/.): Device or resource busy in /var/www/html/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/BAO/CustomField.php on line 1669, referer: https://xxxxx.com/xxxxxxx

Also, the API is being bootsrapped no problem - I can even update other custom fields etc - it's when I hit this particular file custom field that I run into problems.



Does anyone have an exact working example of how to put a file path into a custom file field please?

Many thanks.
