Sorry,

I do not know the exect anaswer but i have one rough idea that in PHP we have
one function by which we can run the linux command like 

fun_name("<command>")

Actually i used this function long before so i forgot 

we can use chmod 777 to our file or any command to change the permissionand by
this we can solve tis problem (may Be)

Ankur
