MOST LIKELY.
PHP does not have the permission to write data to '/test.txt'
You'll have to change $filename to a world-writable directory.
Do *NOT* *NOT* *NOT* make it in your web-tree.
Create a new directory next to your 'htdocs' (or 'www' or 'web' or
whatever).
NEXT TO that, not *inside*
cd
mkdir newdir
Then, make that directory world-writable:
chmod 777 newdir
Then, use the full path to newdir in your $filename:
cd newdir
pwd
$filename = '/full/path/to/newdir/test.txt';'
