daveeboi Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Am trying to get the results of a query to export into a CSV file, but all I keep getting is an error message. PHP Code: $sql = "SELECT * FROM tbl_qualifications INNER JOIN tbl_users ON tbl_qualifications.UserID=tbl_users.ID WHERE tbl_qualifications.QID=24 AND tbl_users.PrefCom=2 INTO OUTFILE '/downloads/file.csv'"; Error message: Can't create/write to file '\downloads\file.csv' (Errcode: 2) The folder is created, and has permission to write to it. Don't know what's going on?? Can anyone help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blirette Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Hey, I used this kind of thing to generate a file from an SQL query before. Worked great. header('Content-type: application/x-msexcel; charset=utf-8'); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="somefile.csv"'); Then here you echo() all your information. Hope it helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkWater Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Yeah, I noticed the beginning / which indicates the root filesystem directory. Are you sure that's where it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
