Hi everyone,
i am trying desperatelly to create new file using fopen() function, but all the time getting permission error:
failed to open stream: Permission denied ....
situation is like this:
<?php
$file=fopen("directory/file.html","wt");
......
?>
script that is creating file is, as you may see, in parent folder of folder where i am trying to open file.
Folder "directory" is chmoded to 777.
If i try to create new file in same folder where script reside, it works. But i need to create it in subfolder. And NEW file must be created.
Any idea?
Thanks!

Try to use full path to the file like fopen("/home/user/www/directory/file.html","wt");

my solution would be:

PHP Code:

<?
mkdir("./directory/");
chdir("./directory/");
$file = fopen("file.html", "wt");
?>

Thaks for posts,
but I have tried both this solutions al it still does not work!
I have also tried with ftp style acces, it also does not work...

Check if safe mode or open basedir is enabled. If it is, add your new directory to the paths or disable it.
