If it's not safe_mode as Stut suggests, it's also possible that the PHP user (probably Apache User) does not have permission to write into /var/www/html/B/var/tmp/queue, regardless of whether you are in A or B. It's also remotely possible that your server is running two (or more) pools of Apache servers, one for each of A and B (and others) and A can write to A dir and B can write to B dir, because each is running as a different user. Or, you could be using php_suexec or fast cgi to achieve a similar effect... Basically, this is going to boil down to: PHP us running as User X. User X does not have permission to write to dir B. The permission could be foiled by PHP with safe_mode, or could be built into the permissions on the directories with chmod. So if it's not safe_mode, mess around with "ls -als" on the directory, and use phpinfo() or http://php.net/get_current_user to figure out who you are, and then it should be pretty clear who can/can't write to that directory and why it's not working. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
