Basic User cannot upload file into folder until adding him into administrator group

NOTE: PLEASE SEE MY LATEST UPDATES ON MY ISSUE ON THE COMMENT SECTION.

Hi every one, not sure if you have experienced this before:

The given requirement is to create an interface with a file upload field. With that file,check if the file format is csv, and if all the columns's header name are the right name and are in the right order). 

My code is attached below. The issue is that when the basic user's account is given viewer permission in my document folder, the file was not uploaded succesfully to the folder. If you have any recommendation please reach out. Thank you Slight smile

    because I don't want to allow basic users changing anything in my document folder. 

    Just giving them editor permission for a folder (which as others have pointed out, is needed for them to be able to use the file upload field), doesn't automatically allow them to "change" things there.  Mainly this is because they have no access to the back end and therefore would have no method by which to access the folder properties to edit them, like someone with /design access would have.
