Thank you for your reply Kern,
I will do as you say, I will set the value /tmp to the upload_tmp_dir variable.
As a courtesy, I ask you one more clarification...
By setting the value "/tmp", will the tmp directory I see already present in the root be used or do I have to create a "tmp" folder somewhere?
Basically, is it enough that I set /tmp in the php.ini or do I also have to create the directory?
Thanks in advance
Francesco
