chmod()

[greentea]

Hi,

I have problem on my script when running chmod():

   if (!chmod($temp_fileName, 0777))
                  {

                    echo "<p>*lit-genStatic-a Fail to chmod temporary file: $temp_fileName</p>";
     exit();
   }
   else
   {
      $tempfile = fopen($temp_fileName, 'w');
   }

Warning: chmod() [function.chmod]: Operation not permitted in /home/booknow1/cm/ed/genStatic.php on line 162

What to do?
Thanks

your permissions are either set wrong on the file or the directory give your web server permission to write to that directory and on that file and you'll be good to go.

Thanks. Can chmod() do what you just said?

no it can't but if you ftp into the server then you should be able to do it.
