[PHP-DB] Flat File Upload..HELP!

Sun, 05 Jan 2003 20:39:07 -0800 


I know this is not technically a DB question but thought someone may be
able to help with this. I have tried everything I could think of to make
this script work but I keep getting the error message below. I've even
changed the permissions on the files and the folders affected to  allow
full read,write execute priviledges to all users ...but still no luck.
I'm not sure if it is a server (apache on linux)  permission issue or if
it is a typo in the script or a file path issue. ANY HELP would be
greatly appreciated.  I've also included the script below in the event
the mistake is in the script


Thanks in Advance
