Android Issue while trying to upload files to Apache Server

Question

i have a problem whiile trying to upload files to a WebServer.

this is the code i'm using:

File file = new File(fileUri.getPath());
try {
    HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();

    HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(URL_connect);
    Log.e("subiendo archivo",fileUri.getPath());
    InputStreamEntity reqEntity = new InputStreamEntity(
            new FileInputStream(file), -1);
    reqEntity.setContentType("binary/octet-stream");
    reqEntity.setChunked(true); // Send in multiple parts if needed
    httppost.setEntity(reqEntity);
    HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
    //Do something with response...

} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    Toast toast1 = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Error "+e, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
    toast1.show();
    Vibrator vibrator =(Vibrator) getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);
    vibrator.vibrate(200); 
}

But there's no way, the file is not being uploaded to the server, i'm trying this on server side:

$file = $_FILES["file"];

$nombre_archivo = $_FILES['file']['name']; 
$tipo_archivo = $_FILES['file']['type']; 
$tamano_archivo = $_FILES['file']['size'];
$temporal = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];

move_uploaded_file($temporal, "../img/media/".$nombre_archivo);

And in the LogCat there's nothing concerning the upload, it just prints the Log.e("uploading file","name and path of the file").

What's the problem?

Yes, i've added the answer and right code months ago, you can see it below. — Douglas Roos

Solved, instead using the code posted before i've used this:

following this info:

http://blog.tacticalnuclearstrike.com/2010/01/using-multipartentity-in-android-applications/

try {
                  MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
                 Log.e("enviando", fileUri.getPath());
                  entity.addPart("reporte", new StringBody(reporte));
                  entity.addPart("usuarioID", new StringBody(user));
                  entity.addPart("archivo", new FileBody(file));
                  httppost.setEntity(entity);
                  HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
                } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
                     e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                     e.printStackTrace();
                }
