Hi I have the following code that breaks:
// PLACE NICK INTO NICKNAMES.TXT AND START OFF MESSAGES.TXT
$fileID = fopen($path . "/nicknames.txt", "a") or die("Could not open " . $path .
"/nicknames.txt");
chmod($path . "/nicknames.txt", 0755);
fputs($fileID, $nickname . "\n"); fflush($fileID); fclose($fileID);
$fileID = fopen($path . "/messages.txt", "a") or die("Could not open " . $path .
"/messages.txt");
fputs($fileID, "*** WELCOME \"" . $nickname . "\" TO THE ROOM ***");
fflush($fileID); fclose($fileID);
I am getting the following error:
Warning: fopen("/users/ppowell/web/chat/nicknames.txt", "a") - Permission denied in
/users/ppowell/web/chat/chat.php on line 163
I am attempting to write onto the files if they exist, if not, create them on the fly.
I need the solution in the next 5 minutes - sorry, kind of an emergency!
If anyone can help, please tell me what to do, the PHP manuals are not giving me a
clear solution as to how to write to a file that does not yet exist that has to have
the permissions of 0755 for both files.
Thanx
Phil
