It is the wrong place, you want php-general.
But the error is straight forward, you do NOT have permissions to write to
that file. With that said have your system administrator make sure the user
that the web server runs as has write access to the directory in which you
are attempting to store your files from PHP.

Subject: [PHP-DEV] What does this error mean?
I'm trying to from a file in a directory called 'logs'. I've never seen
this error before. What does it mean?
<<<ERROR>>>
Warning: fopen("logs/993700800.log","w+") - Permission denied in
/home/sites/site20/users/guide/web/counter.php on line 28
Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in
/home/sites/site20/users/guide/web/counter.php on line 29
Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in
/home/sites/site20/users/guide/web/counter.php on line 30
1
<<<END>>>
The last two errors are becuase the first fails to return a file handle.
Here's the actual offending code. It's just a simple counter.
<<<CODE>>>
<?PHP
$iDate = mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m"), date("d"), date("Y"));
$iCount = 1;
$sFile = "logs/".$iDate.".log";
if (file_exists($sFile)) {
$iCount = incCount($sFile);
} else {
createCountLog($sFile);
}
echo "<B><FONT COLOR=BLUE>$iCount</FONR></B>";
function incCount($sFile) {
// Open and read existing count
$hCounter = fopen($sFile, "r");
$iCount = fgets($hCounter, 1024);
fclose($hCounter);
// Write over it with the new count
$hCounter = fopen($sFile, "w");
fputs($hCounter, ++$iCount);
fclose($hCounter);
return $iCount;
}
function createCountLog($sFile) {
$hCounter = fopen($sFile, "w+");
fputs($hCounter, 1);
fclose($hCounter);
}
?>
<<<END>>>
Usually I've been able to fix every PHP error I've gotten in the past -
they've been pretty straightforward - but I've been playing around with this
error for a few days now to no avail.
I'm new to this mailing list and have never used it before so I'm not sure
which one/s to join or post this specific message to. I apologize if this
is the wrong forum for this type of question. Thank you for your time.
