Hi! When I use those PHP function, 1) exec(), 2) passthru() and 3) system(), they don't work. I suspect that I would need to enter the Environment Variable so I did the putenv() for the PATH, BASH, etc. But still does not work. Check file Permission and so on. (Can't use fopen() to create a file due to permission error). What am I missing here? Thanks, Scott Scott Fletcher [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hi!

[PHP] Re: PHP command for issuing UNIX command???
Wait a minute! I checked the Apache Error Log and it said file access permission do not allow the specified action. It can use the cp command and the original file. But it can not create the new file as result of hte copy command. Why is that? What are the way around?

Found the problem! It's not hte file permission for those files you try to work with. You have to go up one directory and set the file permission of hte folder where those files are in and Viola!
