mkdir error

Tiger99

Hi
I am trying to create dir
$upload = dirname($SCRIPT_FILENAME)."/artist/".$artist_f."/";
mkdir($upload, 0755);
chmod($upload, 0777);
but I am getting a permission error
Warning: MkDir failed (Permission denied)
Is this the problem of my script
or the server problem?

Please help

Thanks in advance

Double-check that you have write permissions on the "/artist/" directory. If Apache is running this script (or another server), then you will have to give it write permissions by:

1 - giving apache ownership

chown apache /path/to/artist

2 - granting group write access (775) and assigning it to the apache group

chgrp apache /path/to/artist

chmod 775 /path/to/artist

3 - or by giving global write access (777)
