Re: mkdir, Shared Hosting?

More than likely, your host has safe mode on. Safe mode is a pain in the ass if you need to create directories or write to files, but seems to be the defacto standard for shared hosts using php. Esteamedpw@aol.com wrote:

Open up your FTP client and log into your website, then change the permissions on your folder so that the apache process has write access to it. Its really hit and miss depending on your setup.

The sure fire way (but highly insecure) way is to change the permissions to the directory in question to 777.

A better solution would be 755, but it may not work.

Try it, and see what you get.
