kool_samule Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hi Chaps, I'm tyring to make a PHP / FTP Application, where users can view/download/upload files in a given FTP site. I can connect to the FTP server, login using the credentials, but when I try to upload, or create a directory, I get: Warning: ftp_mkdir() [function.ftp-mkdir]: www: Access is denied. in C:\webserver\Apache2\htdocs\ftp\test.php on line 16 Line 16: if (ftp_mkdir($conn_id, $dir)) { echo "successfully created $dir\n"; } else { echo "There was a problem while creating $dir\n"; } As before, the credentials are correct, but I think there is a security issue somewhere what is blocking access. If anyone has any ideas what this could be, please share the wealth! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamatomic Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 it is a permission problem. chmod the /ftp/ folder to 777 HTH Teamatomic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kool_samule Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 I have just tested creating a new directory using CuteFTP Pro and I got an error: Request denied. Please verify that the file or folder exists and that you have the necessary permissions on the server to perform the requested operation. Do you know what I should look for to get both FTP Client and my Web App to work correctly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kool_samule Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Looks like I had my FTP path wrong, it was trying to create a directory on the root, rather than in one of the accessible directories within the FTP site. Now sorted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
