 Posted: Sat Mar 15, 2003 5:25 pm Post subject: Setting File Permission |
 |
|
Hi guys,
Ive got a PHP application for a chat program. But it needs to edit a txt file in order to keep the list of users, or else nothing will happen.
How would I go about changing the permissions on that file so that others could edit it?
Thanx,
Jay |

When it comes to read/write permissions you're best to state what kind of OS you're using... The *nix systems are different than the MS systems.
On MS check to make sure the .txt file is not read only and it is within the servers path... On *nix systems you'll have to chmod something but I am not sure...
Your best bet is to tell us more about your OS and setup... Anything that could help us to serve you better :)

Before you begin to trip heavy have you already tried to work with the script *or* are you still stuck at the installation phase? What happens when trying to access the script live, do you get any errors or warnings?
If you're stuck on installation bypass read write permission settings (its most likely for *nix systems)... If you're pass the install where is it you're getting stuck at?
BTW, what script are you using? Maybe I can look into it and test it for myself. Thanks and good luck plus if you've already solved the problem let us know :)
