note 105465 added to function.fopen

I had to switch from relative paths to full paths when my web host recently migrated the server onto their hosting cloud. This used to work for me: <?php $fplog = fopen('ipn.log','a'); ?> After the migration, however, I received the following error message: Warning: fopen(ipn.log) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in D:\home\server_name\log_test.php on line 21 I had to change the code to the following to get it to work: <?php $logfile = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'\\ipn.log'; $fplog = fopen($logfile,'a'); ?> ---- Server IP: 192.41.42.26 Probable Submitter: 69.71.183.19 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/105465 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105465/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105465/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105465/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105465/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105465/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105465/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105465 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/105465 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
