unlink() refusing to delete file

[peter_anderson]

I am trying to delete a file via unlink(). It's a .html file, stored in a folder on its own.

 

			// current directory
		$dir = dirname(__FILE__);
		$dir = str_replace('classes','',$dir);
		$file = str_replace('./',$dir,$fr['location']);
		unlink($fr['location']);
		if(!unlink($file)){
			echo 'err';
		}
		if(file_exists($file)){
			echo 'ok1';
		}

 

The $fr['location'] stores the real location, as ./uploads/1303577497/barebones.html.

 

I've tried every combination I can think of to delete it. I've even deleted it from FTP and re-uploaded it, in case it was a permissions issue, but it refuses to go. When I file_get_contents it, it appears as existing.

 

Can anyone help?

OK, I fixed it by setting up the permissions for the folder to 777.
