can't write file to server - should be simple

[NLCGraphics]

Hi guys,

 

I'm trying to write a file to a seperate server using:

 

$file= fopen("\\serverName\firstFolder\secondFolder\fileName.xml", "w");

 

but it will not write to that file, any idea why?

 

I can write to a file in the same folder as the php file but not on another

server. The server I'm writing to doesn't have PHP or APACHE installed, should that matter, if I'm writing to the file from a server that does have those programs installed?

 

thanks,

Maybe the directory you are trying to write doesn't have permissions to write.

Is the folder you're attempting to write to accessible from the server where PHP is running?
