.php sometimes executes, sometimes asks to save

[23style]

to test this out i have 2 files

test.php and hello.php
test contains

echo "dddddddddddddd";
include 'hello.php';

test.php runs fine.

if i rar hello.php and then extract it and overwrite it..i get this error when i run test.php

"dddddddddddddd
Warning: main(hello.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test.php on line 4

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'hello.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test.php on line 4"

anyone know why this is?

Permission denied means that your webserver has no permition to open this file.
find out what user is running webserver and look at permissions of files that came out from winrar...

sorry to ask this...but how do i check that?

im running this locally . win2k and IIS / PHP

[icaro]

click with your right buttom on the file, click on 'properties'... if it's not there, ask your admin..
now the funniest thing, i never used win2k and when something like that happens in my work in a win2k server, i just tell the server admin and he solves by himself. i believe its quite easy (to ask and to solve it). 😃
