Creating A File, Uploading, And Permissions
I'm using php4 and i want to check for a file, if it doesn't exist it
should be created. My problem is i have to create it with specific
permissions specifically 666 so that the script can then write to it. I
don't have ftp access. I'm also looking for any tutorials, recent ones,
using php4 for creating file upload areas, i'm trying to make one of those
as well.

Uploading Images And Creating Thumbs From It
I have a problem with uploading images and creating thumbs from it. Not all the time, but sometimes, the full size image is completely uploaded and correct, while the thumbnail only builds a vertical part of the real image... the rest is grey. How is that possible? Uploading is not the problem, but resizing somehow is i guess.

File Permissions
Im in the process of creating a web based frontend for a program called ASK (Active Spam Killer - http://a-s-k.sourceforge.net) and am currently running into a problem. Currently there is a perl based web front end, but it lacks functionality, and is rather bland, although it does work, and it works without changing any file permissions. The problem im running into is that PHP requires me to make changes to file permissions (ASK files are located OUTSIDE of the web tree) which might end up causing problems as far as security and privacy of email. Has anyone come to any reasonable answer for this type of problem as im sure its a issue for other programs people write.

File Permissions....
I've read the stuff concerning writing to a text file and the related file permission issues on this forum.I have a script that does just that, it takes user-entered data from a Web Form and dumps it to a text file on a server. This works fine on my private server, but is giving me the error...."Could not open stream.Permission denied on Line..." on the company server...The Company machine uses Windows XP. I've tried talking to the System Administrator regarding the Permissions,but he says that giving READ/WRITE/EXECUTE Permissions could create Security Issues. I have been told that previously,a script written in ASP had been used that did exactly the same thing i.e writing to the text file, but there were no File Permissions needed to be set!

Problem With File Permissions : PHP / FTP
My php-script makes directories and puts files in it. But via FTP'ing, I can't delete those files anymore. Also, I need to put a whole bunch of existing files into these, 'made-by-php' directories, and that seems impossible by means of FTP. I get an 'access denied' error every time.

File Permissions After Copy()
This function basically creates a new dir in a determined location and copies the files from an established dir to the new dir. It copies the files and creates the folder ok, bit it sets the file permissons to 755 for the new folder and file contents. I then get a 550 error if I try to delete or chmod them. Any suggestions? I get permission errors in the script if I use the chgrp and chmod functions also. PHP Code:

Change File Permissions
i'm trying to create a file management tool online using php. Everytime i copy or create files or folders though it assigns ownership of the new files or folders to the apache id. i tried using backticks, exec, shell_exec and the php shell commands. php safe mode is off. i can create the files and folders using shell commands and have tried to change ownership using chown but that doesn't seem to do anything. any insight can help. the goal is to be able to create these files with the same admin user ownership as all the other files on the site.

File Write Permissions
I'm trying to get an open source PHP app working for my company. It's giving me the following custom error: FreeMED was unable to create a file to record the healthy status of the system. The FreeMED directory should be owned by the user that the webserver is running as... Usually this is 'apache'. You can also fix this by giving universal write access to the home directory of FreeMED. But that is not advisable from a security standpoint. I've narrowed it down to the line of PHP that's breaking it here: $test = CreateObject('FreeMED.FreeMEDSelfTest'); As far as I can tell, I've made the directory it's using as open as possible and it's still giving me that error. The owner is apache (user and group) and the permissions are (temporarily) set at 0777 (universal read/write). Is there some PHP or Apache configuration that needs changed to allow PHP this kind of permission?

Upload File Permissions Problem
I've moved an existing site (which I didn't write) from a apache/php/mysql host under windows to a linux apache/php/mysql host. I've sorted out most problems except one. There is an upload function on the site, which uploads files via POST to temp folder and then moves it into a folder on the host using php function move_uploaded_file. Under windows this works fine but on the linux host the uploaded file is created with 600 permissions so it cannot be accessed later by site visitors. The folder it is uploaded into has 755 permissions. Is there a way of setting the default file permissions so each uploaded file can be set to say 644 or do I need to chmod each file after upload?

File Permissions Of PHP Session Files

Does anyone have any idea where this permission is set ? I can't find any umask or chmod settings for it in the php.ini file. Can't find anything in the httpd.conf either. Is it set in the PHP code that implements session_start()?

Set Up The Permissions So That My Script Can Simply Fopen A File For Writing.
I am rather new to PHP and a relative newbie to Linux too. I have a webserver at home (Apache 2.0.48 on SuSe 9.0, PHP4). I have some scripts, one of them needs to be able to create logfiles somewhere on my machine. It must also later be able to read from and write to these files again. Sofar I get a permission error. I tried chmodding 666 or 777 the directory in which the files could reside, to no avail. How do I set up the permissions so that my script can simply fopen a file for writing. Or if that's not the issue, what am I doing wrong or overlooking ? The errors: Warning: fopen(logfileslog1.txt): failed to open stream: Permission denied in script1.php on line 142 Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in script1.php on line 154 Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in script1.php on line 161 It's the first I am puzzled about, the 2nd and 3rd are a logical consequence. By the way, reading from and writing to a file I have previously created myself with exactly the names I tried to get created by the script (echoed the name, ok) is no problem at all. So I don't think it has much to do with a safemode or open_basedir setting. I also tried creating the scripts in the same dir the script itself resides. Did not work either.

Linux File Permissions On Maildir, Apache User

My question is as follows. Is the only solution to this problem to add the courier user to the apache group?

Uploading A File And Checking Form Fields, Without Reselecting File?
I've got a page upload1.php which contains a form that asks the user to select a couple of variables: File owner (compulsory) Menu ID (compulsory) File Description (optional) File to upload This form then goes to upload2.php where I check the form values, and if all ok write the info to my database and upload the file. File owner and MenuID are compulsory, the first thing upload2.php does is check that these are completed. If either field is missing, the form is presented again for the user to complete the missing fields. Fields that were completed are carried forward into this form so the user doesn't have to re-enter. the question: While I can carry the other fields forward from upload1.php to upload2.php, I can't figure out how or if I can carry forward the location of the file to be uploaded so the user doesnt' have to reselect? Form from upload2.php follows. Area in question is highlighted - it's my best guess, but it doesn't work.....

Creating Link To File Or Temp File For User Download
I am designing a document management system (DMS). The files are stored in a directory on the webserver. The filenames for the documents are stored in a MySQL database. The DMS will track revisions from the initial version through the updates. We must have strict permissions set so only authorized personnel can access some documents. All of the documents when uploaded are given totally random names such as "114723fb5422c6bd5ed18f6.doc". Is there a way, without the webserver creating a new file name "document_specs_ver2.doc" to have the file download named "document_specs_ver2.doc". If I must physically create a new file, how do I know when the webserver would be allowed to delete it? Notes: The files will be in several different file formats, not just "doc".

[FAQ] File Uploading
Q: How should I handle file upload? A: File uploading requires HTML form of content type "multipart/form-data". The file content has to be POSTed/submitted via the form and once the file is uploaded, it will be available at the "upload_tmp_dir" (usually /tmp) directory. Then you may move that file to another directory using move_uploaded_file(); file name will be available in the superglobal $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']. Q: How to upload a huge file to the server? A: Uploading depends on various factors: 1. Browser timeout/capacity/configuration 2. Available space and memory at the server 3. PHP's setting to handle uploads and POST data In most of the cases, you could be able to adjust only the (3) Refer: Q: How to implement progress/status bar for file uploading? A: This is impossible in PHP as it doesn't populate HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA natively. Anyway, there are few hacks available: 1. Patching PHP <http://pdoru.from.ro/upload-progress-meter/> 2. Using Perl <http://www.raditha.com/php/progress.php> 3. Finding the size of "upload_tmp_dir" directory at some interval, originally suggested by Reader Ron in <news:42f90a1a.0402252007.72d72cba@posting.google.c om> Caveats: There is no speculation that patching solution will be implemented natively in PHP. (3) seems to be the only pure PHP hack; however it won't work when multiple files are been uploaded at the same time.

If not, I set a cookie with the errors and registration data, then redirect the browser back to the registration page. The registration page reads the cookie for the errors and the values to repopulate all of the fields. Question: How can I make the <input type=file> repopulate with the users selected image so they don't need to browse to it again? Any suggestions?
