I'm trying to learn to create a directory in php, and from everything I've read I created this simple test that I put into the file add_user_dir.php. Unfortunately I can't get it to work. I am getting the error message:
Warning: MkDir failed (Permission denied) in /home/sites/home/users/demo/web/Admin/add_user_dir.php on line 20. Obviously, it has something to do with permissions. I have chmod for the directory 'userforum' set to 0777. I tried playing around with umask, and changing the chmod, but I can't get anything to work. I am using PHP 4.0.6 with Apache 1.3.20 Here is the script: <form action="<? echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" method="post" name="FormName"> <p>User Name<input type="text" name="username" size="24" border="0"> <input type="submit" name="submitButtonName" value="Make Directory" border="0"></p> </form> <?php $dirpath = "/home/sites/home/users/demodocs/web/userforum" . $username; mkdir($dirpath, 0777); ?> Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?
