Re: [PHP] safe mode and file handling
if you are on a unix system running with apache, you could modify the virtual host block and have apache run as your user name and then change the permissions of the docroot so you are the owner and group.

Re: [PHP] safe mode and file handling
The easiest way to make this work is to use open_basedir settings instead of safe_mode. Safe_mode is specifically created to prevent you from doing what you are trying to do. -Rasmus On Fri, 1 Mar 2002, Mika Lindqvist wrote: > I and my www space provider have fought with a problem.

[PHP] safe mode and file handling
I and my www space provider have fought with a problem. All files/directories created by PHP are owned by nobody/nobody and we want them to be created by my own uid/guid. How this would be solved by least amount of modification in the scripts. The problem is in that safe mode requires that the script and the directory containing the file/directory to be accessed is owned by me and only me. If I tell PHP to create a directory test1 under my www root and then change to that directory and tell it to create another directory for example called test2, it fails because test1 is owned by nobody, not me.
