i get error when i use copy() in php online

[pb_planetmaster]

hello there
i have used copy() function in php coding. The code must replicate a file and save it on the host. The code works well when i try it on my computer but gives error when i try it online after uploading that script.

i have used

$teststr = realpath("replicate.php");
$from=str_replace('\','/',$teststr);
$array = split('/', $from);
$count = count($array);
$to="";
for ($i=0; $i<$count-1; $i++)
{
if ($i==0)
{
$to=$array[$i];
}
else
{
$to=$to."/".$array[$i];
}
}
$to=$to."/".$filename.".php";
if(!copy("$from","$to")) die ("Can't copy the file replicate.php");

The scripts works well locally but gives error online as....

Can't copy the file replicate.php

can any body tell why. it is very necessary for me to replicate files

Does the file exist on the server, and is the path correct? Also, what are the permissions on the file?

The exact text of the error would help, too ...

$to="";

for ($i=0; $i<$count-1; $i++)

}
$to=$to."/".$filename.".php";
if(!copy("$from","$to")) die ("Can't copy the file replicate.php");

=============================================

The permission of this file which i have set is "777" and i have also tried "755" using "cute ftp".

The scripts works well locally but gives error online as....

"Can't copy the file replicate.php "

it is very necessary for me to replicate files
