I'm sure this is a newbie question that's in the FAQ,
but I can't find the FAQ:
Here's the error:
ing: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream
resource in /Library/WebServer/Documents/blah/foo.php
on line 62
And here is the code:
$filename = "../../tmp/" . $filename .
".xml";
$fileout = fopen($filename,"w");
fwrite($fileout,"...\n");
Yes, "../../tmp/" is a valid path on the file system.
This feels like a permissions issue, but how do I
diagnose that, and what combination of chmod, chown,
chgrp do I use to get PHP to write the file to a
directory that I know exists?
NOTE: tmp is outside the apache document tree, which I
understand is good practice.
Thanks for any help you can give. (Of course, I
Googled the string, but the error is itself all over
the Internet on actual pages, so the FAQ may be lost
in the haystack.
