How can I know that what is the problem   Easy  Refer to the error log of the webserver      how can I get the actual problem to display to the user     NEVER do it  An average user will unerstand nothing of this error  A malicious user should get no feedback  especially in a form of very informative error message   Just show a page with excuses      If you don t have access to the server s error log  your task become more complicated  There are several ways to get in touch with error messages    To display error messages on screen you can add these lines to the code  ini set  display errors  1   error reporting E ALL     or to make custom error logfile  ini set  log errors  1   ini set  error log    absolute path tp log file      and there are some other ways  but you must understand that without actual error message you can t move  It s hard to be blind in the dark

In php ini search for upload max filesize and post max size  I had the same problem and the solution was to change these values to a value greater than the file size

Do you checks that file is uploaded ok   Maybe you exceeded max post size  or max upload filesize  When login using FileZilla you are copying files as you  when uploading by PHP wiritng this file is from user that runs apache  for exaplme www-data   try to put chmod 755 for images
