EXECuting Scripts

I have a script (thumbs.sh) that I want to execute periodically using the exec() or system() command.

The script does not seem to be able to write files or make directories in my directories.

How do I give permission to a script to have access to make files and directories? Am I missing something?

Thanks

Alex.

Hi.
Perhaps, u could try to set your parent directory permission to 'write-enabled'.
such as:

chmod 777 <directory>

This allow your script to be able to write the file into it. But that means anyone can write / delete that directory... : O }

Anyway, it works on my webserver's photoalbum where user can upload their own photos.

hmm... hope that helps.

cheers.
