Re: More bzip woes! No file written...

I am running this on a windows box for now, and although I have cygwin and can run ls and chmod, they don't seem to have any affect on the actual permissions. From an NT perpsective, I have given the local system account (which Apache runs as) full permissions on the folder in question. Thing is, I am running a tar command before I run bzip and this manages to create a file in this folder without any problems - wouldn't that too fail if it was apermissions problem? > If the "World" user (last of the three) can't do the thing to the file > (read/write/execute) that you want PHP to do, then PHP can't do it. This appears to be the case, but as I have said, I can't seem to get write perms set via cygwin :-( Here is my modified code... $data = implode ("", file ("$filename.tar")); if ($DEBUG) echo "BZip filename: ".$SITE_ROOT."/$filename.bz2<br>"; $bz = bzopen ($SITE_ROOT."/$filename.bz2", "wb"); bzwrite ($bz, $data); bzclose ($bz); regards, Mikey
