lalabored Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Why do I always get this error when I use fopen()? Warning: fopen(somefile.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in something on line 172 I'm being hosted by someone else right now and I've asked them to CHMOD my folder to a wider permission but it didn't work. Can someone tell me what's wrong? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/51248-permission-error-when-using-fopen/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
