RE: [PHP] chmod gives invalid mode error

You might prefer to try chmod 766 settings.php as this is the order that chmod expects its parameters in - "settings.php" is not a mode setting, hence the "invalid mode" error you're getting :-) This is useful because you can do chmod 766 settings.php foo.php bar.php xyzzy.php and all four files will be set to 766 HTH Jon -----Original Message----- From: MrBaseball34 [mailto:mrbaseball34@hotmail.com] Sent: 06 November 2001 16:35 To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] chmod gives invalid mode error I got an invlid mode error when trying to chmod of settings.php to 766. Here is my ls: -rw-r--r-- <SNIP> settings.php How do you read the -rw-r--r--? How do I change the mode? chmod settings.php 766 did not work. ********************************************************************** 'The information included in this Email is of a confidential nature and is intended only for the addressee.
