note 97239 added to function.touch

I needed to use this to touch the /etc/cron.d directory when I updated some files in there. I know the docs say this isn't necessary, but I'm finding that i need to do it in order form my changes to be picked up quickly. I ran into the permissions error as well and I found that using chmod 777 /etc/cron.d does the trick. So, you should be able to use the PHP touch function on a directory that has open write access. Of course, this isn't the most secure approach, but in our application it's not a big deal for that folder to not be super secure. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 173.14.161.21 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.touch.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/97239 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97239/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97239/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97239/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97239/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97239/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97239/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97239 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/97239 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
