Where is wrong?

[ruap]

These scripts always get error when running.
error info is as "failed to create stream: Permission denied "

$filename="some.txt";
$fp=fopen($filename,"w+"); // this line is wrong?
// I CAN'T find it!
$stat=fread($fp,filesize($filename));
$stat=intval($stat);
$stat=$stat++;
$stat=strval($stat);
rewind($fp);
fwrite($fp,$stat);
fclose($fp);

Thanks for any help!

surely you don't have the proper permissions to write to that file. Try "chmod a+w some.txt", "chmod 777 some.txt" or if not in a unix environment give the permissions in the properties tab.

There is an exe file for visitors to download, should I use the "chmod " to change the exe file 's property?
If yes , "chmod ??? exe_file"
what is the proper attibute?
Thanks!

i was talking about some.txt, the file you wanted to write to. In the case of an exe file you want users to download you don't need to set any properties, cause download=read, and every file in your site has read permissions by default. (How could users browse your web if they hadn't? 😛)

Thank you, thessoro. My 2 questions have been answered.

THERE is another one:

I want the $stat add 1 every time the php page downloaded, but the scripts failed , where is wrong? $stat is a download counter.
TAHNKS!

$filename="some.txt";
$fp=fopen($filename,"w+" );
$stat=fread($fp,filesize($filename));
$stat=intval($stat);
$stat=$stat++;
$stat=strval($stat);
rewind($fp);
fwrite($fp,$stat);
fclose($fp);

Try this:

$filename="some.txt"; 
$fp=fopen($filename,"r+" );  // the w mode destroy any data the file contained.
$stat=fread($fp,filesize($filename)); 
$stat=intval($stat); 
$stat++;  // just this, you can write $stat=$stat+1, $stat+=1, but not $stat=$stat++
$stat=strval($stat); 
rewind($fp); 
fwrite($fp,$stat); 
fclose($fp);
