Using the API to add attachments to a candidate record

[Cindy LTI]

I am using the API to upload a file to the candidate record in CATS,

        $file = realpath('../public/uploads/'.$_SESSION['userid'].'_score.csv');

This is working great in the production environment but I am testing a new version of WAMP using identical PHP code from production in a new test environment and am receiving an error.

The error is code 412 with no file being uploaded and I believe that the 412 error is for precondition not met. Trying to find out what precondition I am missing in the test environment. 

FYI, 

Another API call is working fine, so I believe this is only affecting file uploads. 

         $api->update_candidate($_SESSION['userid'],$finalvalue,'','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','');

Hi Cindy,

That sounds like a file permissions issue on your server.

I actually have the new WAMP and PHP set up on my PC for testing I am an admin for the PC so I believe I have permissions to every directory and file.  Is there something I can check?  

I have used the API call from the http://api.catsone.com/api/add_attachment site and am able to upload the same file through this method from my PC.

The web server that you are using (e.g. apache, nginx) must have permission to access the files.

Do you have any suggestions on how to find and change these permissions?  I am using apache as part of a WAMP server on a Windows 7 PC.  I have been trying everything I can find or think of. Thanks!
