I am having problems writing a file (in fact, it's a Google sitemap) to a site. I know that it has something to do with permissions and owners. But how can I see what the settings are for this file? And what "owner" will PHP be known as? -- Pete Clark ------------------------------------ Hi Pete, <big snip> Sorry got the permissions wrong! It should have read - ..... So if a script needs to create an read files there are two real options - 1) If the script runs as the account owner then the file has to at least have permission's 600 and the folder that contains the folder needs at least 300. 2) If the script runs as the 'default www user' then the file needs at least 606 and the folder needs at least 303. In reality you are not so concerned with owner access restrictions so these permission's would translate to - 600 => 700 300 => 700 606 => 706 303 => 703 In general, the 'group' access is set to the same as the 'owner' access but this is not a good thing if you are on a shared server and have things like credit card numbers in files. The only time the 'group' access needs to be anything other than 0 is when you are using 'basic auth' protocol or you have subusers with FTP accounts. <another big snip> ------------------------------------ Please remember to write your response BELOW the previous text.
