php lampp permissions of fopen function
- by marmoushismail
hi i'm programming php using:
netbeans 6.8
lampp for ubuntu (xampp)
apache which came with xampp
$fh = fopen("testfile2.txt", 'w') or
die("Failed to create file"); $text
="hello man cool good"; fwrite($fh, $text) or die("Could not
write to file"); fclose($fh); echo
"File 'testfile.txt' written
successfully";
//i get the next error:
Warning: fopen(testfile2.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/marmoush/allprojects/phpprojects/myindex.php on line 91
Failed to create file
anyway i know what this error is; it's about folder and files permissions;
i looked into the folder permission tab
made access available for "others" group ( to read and write)
the program worked result was a file (test.txt)
so i looked at the created file permission it appears to be that (php , xampp or whoever) creates file with (nobody permission)
I have 2 QUESTIONS:
1- what if i need the file created by (php code and xampp ) to have the "root or user or myname" permissions ?? where to set this setting
2-also my concern (what if i send this files to actual web server will it make nobody permissions also nobody ? when they create files
