Using mkdir, fopen, fwrite, etc with PHP

[osol]

My php script uses mkdir, fopen, fwrite, etc. to write a log to a text file. This works fine on a live online server, but using it on my mac with xampp is not working. The permissions aren't the problem, it's that no files/folders are ever created... nothing happens. What's the problem??

Code: Select all

      if (!is_dir($path)) {
         mkdir($path,0755, true);
      }

   $openfile = fopen($path."/".$filename, 'a');
   fwrite($openfile, $logcontent);
   fclose($openfile);

The permissions aren't the problem,

Sure? How can you know?

Because I initially received a permissions error, but I gave the folder read and write permissions along with all "enclosed items". I no longer receive the permissions error, now nothing happens at all.

Hi there,

I jut started with xampp. And I've run into the same problem. Thing is when I execute the php from a flash file it does write. But when I execute it from a HTML file in the local host nothing happens. Other commands like download etc do work
