title: Failure to open file
body: <p>I have a file residing in:</p>
  
  <pre><code>/public_html/funding_manager/application/uploads
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>called Funding_calendar_05_Dec_14.ics</p>
  
  <p>I am trying:</p>
  
  <pre><code>fopen("/public_html/funding_manager/application/uploads/" . $upload_data['file_name'], 'r'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>From within a Codeigniter conroller method but I get gold the file can't be found.</p>
  
  <pre><code>/public_html/funding_manager/application/uploads/Funding_calendar_05_Dec_1414.ics
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can't seem to get my head around this...</p>
  
  <p>Any thoughts?</p>
