permissions on WinXP/apache/php4 for upload

byp

HI, i'm trying to perform a upload operaion on my web site but i got a "permission denyed" error when i do de copy() function.

script:

if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['archivo']['tmp_name'])) {

//chmod("C:/Apache/wwwroot/ap_registro_tareas",775);

   copy($_FILES['archivo']['tmp_name'], "C:/Apache/wwwroot/ap_registro_tareas");
} else {
   echo "Possible file upload attack. Filename: " . $_FILES['archivo']['name'];
}

error:

Warning: copy(C:/Apache/wwwroot/ap_registro_tareas) [function.copy]: failed to create stream: Permission denied in c:\apache\wwwroot\ap_registro_tareas\ingreso_tarea\prueba_file.php on line 17

it seems that is a permission problem by i dont kwnow exactly what permission to assign to the folder.
i have try to put all privileges to all users in the secuity issue but it still doesnt work.

bye

yes I have verified that and it isn´t set as read only.

Try giving "copy()" the name of the destination file; for example:

copy($_FILES['archivo']['tmp_name'], "C:/Apache/wwwroot/ap_registro_tareas/" . $_FILES['archivo']['name']);

And on a comedy note, straight from the manual notes:

Having spent hours tacking down a copy() error: Permission denied , (and duly worrying about chmod on winXP) , its worth pointing out that the 'destination' needs to contain the actual file name ! --- NOT just the path to the folder you wish to copy into.......
DOH !
hope this saves somebody hours of fruitless debugging

I downloaded a new version of the chm the other day, it's pretty much bang up to date. Only available in english the the notes but here's the link anyway.
