Permission denied on unlink()

[simobk]

Hi,

I am trying to delete a file from the server, using unlink. Here is my function :

<?php
function fnProprieteDelPic($picture)
{
	echo $picture;
	if (unlink($picture))
		$msg = fnMessage("suc.BlahBlahBlah");
	else
		$msg = fnMessage("err.BlahBlahBlah");
	return $msg;
}
?>

The echo is there so I can just verify that the right path is sent. Problem is, although the path is correct, and I've set the permissions to 777, I get this :

photo/house/simobk/1090831/12.jpg
Warning: unlink(photo/house/simobk/1090831/12.jpg): Permission denied in /home/httpd/vhosts/softmixstudios.com/subdomains/client/httpdocs/immofr/app/fnProprieteDelPic.php on line 5

Any help?

Thanks,

Simo

woooopppsss :rolleyes:

I just realized I had applied the permissions to the wrong directory :rolleyes:

The problem is, there is one main directory that has 100's of subdirectories created dynamically. I want to know if it is possible to set the permissions of the top directory to 777 and to have it automatically applied to all subdirectories, even those created later?

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks,

Simo

As far as I was concerned, I thought '0777' was the default mode for PHP. At least, it is for [man]mkdir/man.

Other than that, you can always try to use [man]chmod/man in your scripts...
