    what OS is your server ?

    also I often find it easier to use the
    `cp $path/$file $newpath/file`

    but that is on *nix based boxs

    some other things to check

    -file permissions the program maybe able to see the file but not copy it
    may want to chmod("0777") then change permissions back after move

    -make sure you aren't out of space alot time if the server is out of space then when it working with files during a move it will copy them to a buffer and then reallocate the old space to the system then try to allocate space in the new location. if there is no space, it will just dump the buffer.

    -lastly make sure there isn't a copy in the new directory on some systems instead of over writing the file it will cause an error.

    if you need more help with this let me know
