PHP mkdir issue!

Question

Hi,

I trying to create some dirs like this:

@mkdir("photos/$cat/$sku", 0777, true)

it creates the first directory with 0777 permissions, but when it creates the second is uses 000 as it's perms, so it fails to create the third.

A workaround this please?

Thanks, Richard.

Answer 1

dear it is due to user rights, please check the user when you are creating the any dir using mkdir function,

Answer 2

Have you tried chmoding the directories?

mkdir("photos/$cat", 0777, true);
chmod("photos", 0777);
chmod("photos/$cat", 0777);
mkdir("photos/$cat/$sku", 0777);
chmod("photos/$cat/$sku", 0777);

Answer 3

This solved the issue:

$a = @mkdir("photos/$cat/", 0777);
    @chmod("photos/$cat/", 0777);
    $b = @mkdir("photos/$cat/$sku/", 0777);
    @chmod("photos/$cat/$sku/", 0777);

but why can't use recursive on mkdir?
