I can read/write the same files with perl cgi scrips but not with php Reproduce code: --------------- my test script <?php $filename = '/var/www/html/test.txt'; $content = "Add this to the file\n"; if (file_write($filename,$content)) echo "Success"; function file_write($filename, &$content) { if (!$fp = @fopen($filename, "w")) { echo "Cannot open file ($filename)"; exit; } if (fwrite($fp, $content) === FALSE) { echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)"; exit; } if (!fclose($fp)) { echo "Cannot close file ($filename)"; exit; } return true; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Success Actual result: -------------- Cannot open file (/var/www/html/test.txt) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31059&edit=1
