The manual states that the mode is modified by your current umask. Try a umask(0) and see if it is still an issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-01 09:53:40] mike@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Check your umask. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-01 09:48:19] drak@php.net I get the same on PHP 5.5.3. chmod('test', 0777) then transforms the directory to the right chmod. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-01 09:44:10] cmfcmf dot flach at gmail dot com Description: ------------ Creating a directory using mkdir() does not respect the permissions given. Test script: --------------- <?php // Create a folder with 0777 permissions. mkdir('test', 0777); // Should be 0777, but is 0755. echo substr(sprintf('%o', fileperms('test')), -4); Expected result: ---------------- I expect the folder to be created with 0777 permission. Actual result: -------------- The folder is created with 0755 permission. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65796&edit=1
