Error Copying File

[ballouta]

Hello

I have the file 353516023853268.rpl that i am sure it exists in my Public_html

 

the first php copy command works when i copy this file to the 'back' folder.

while the second is not working. it doesn't copy the file, I can;t find the problem.

 

Please note that 'ahsan' folder exists.

I also modified the code to copy this file to another directory in 'stk' folder but still have the sam eproblem.

thank you

 

<?php
echo "Copying the rpl file to the backup folder....<br>";
if (!copy("/home/wwwrpld/public_html/353516023853268.rpl", "/home/wwwrpld/public_html/back/dct4/353516023853268.rpl-Motif")) { echo "failed to copy $myf...\n"; }

echo "Copying the rpl file to the user folder.... the user here is $user <br>";
if (!copy("/home/wwwrpld/public_html/353516023853268.rpl", "/home/wwwrpld/stk/ahsan/353516023853268.rpl")) { echo "failed to copy $myf...\n"; }
?>

I bet if you moved the stk folder to your public_html folder and changed the path accordingly this would work. I think this is an issue with PHP writing to folders outside of the public_html or www folders on apache servers. you may want to check this out and possibly check the file permissions for stk.

hi

actually i have anothe website where i can run this code properly without any error.

let's say that the problem is in folders permissions, what is the correct permission for the stk folder and its sub directories?

 

thank you
