I can not create .php files from PHP. I can save them as *.php5, *.php3, asp, *.txt , etc... but not as .php. I tried both touch and fopen but none of them worked. I'm running PHP 5.1.6 on Apache 2, safe_mode is off Is this a security measure somewhere? How can I bypass it?

I doubt it will help you, but with a default installation of 5.2.2 on a Linux box (fresh install), I was able to do this from the CLI with no issues whatsoever: <?

       $handle = fopen('writetest.php','w');
       fwrite($handle,"This is a test.");

?> I know that you said that you were able to write a file, but are you using the correct parameters in your .php writes to create or append to a file (as needed), and are the write permissions set properly for the exact directory to which you're attempting to write? -- Daniel P.
