fopen() problems - cannot write to a file?

[Nazca]

I think I may have had this problem before and it was my own stupidity that was the trouble -- but as of now my PHP scripts are refusing to write to files (that already exist).

As such:

$fileopen = fopen("mylog.txt", "a");

fwrite($fileopen, "$addition");
fwrite($fileopen, "\t @ $IP \n");

fclose($fileopen);

I've also tried using the full path to mylog.txt, which gave a more specific error message - failed to open stream: HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections.

Is this my fault, or has something changed?

EDIT: I've also tried using "w" and "wa" instead of "a" for the type of stream I'm opening...no luck.

try using "rb+"
works for me (on OpenVMS Alpha)

YMMV

Sadly, no. I tried further combinations of "wa+", "rb", "rb+", etc.

I also changed file permissions, but that didn't help. Having the PHP script create the file itself didn't work, access was denied.


EDIT: By the way-- My account is on IRIX, if this matters.

EDIT2: Ok, tried putting my PHP up on another server I have access to and after a little tweaking, got it to work. Maybe it's the server, or maybe I just need to update it on IRIX. Consider the problem fixed.
