PHP save problem! - Socrates - 10-28-2009
Can someone help me? Here is the problem. I am trying to save my php files but I don't know where to save them at. Im on ubuntu 9.04 linux and when I try to save my files to var/www I get an error saying permission denied? Any ideas?
RE: PHP save problem! - uber1337 - 10-28-2009
Maybe because that is a root directory, you can just use a root terminal and either change the file permissions with "chmod" or move the file manually. Or you can just save it to the desktop or the home folder.

Please visit this website http://catcode.com/teachmod/ Read it through and change the permissions of the folder so that you can read, write, etc. If you need any more help with linux just PM me, I had a lot of trouble with it myself when I first started
