hi im creating php registration form where i need the  users to register and create a directory and a file files for it.

 

So far im good, but when i try to delete the files i get an error because the username onership is changed to "nobody.nobody" instead of my admin "username.username".

 

is there a way to preset ownership of the file and directory b4 creating them or while creating them?

 

some one help please becoz i have been researching for days for this and i can't find anything about it.

 

by the way im using mkdir() and open file function.

When you create the dir it will be owned by apache.apache.

 

You can get apache to chown and chmod the directory + files. You may need to add apache to a group with more permissions, depending on where your directory is and who owns the parent directories.

 

The simplest way would be to log in as root, chown /var/www/html as apache.apache and create the user directory in this place.
