using file_put_contents from pear

[Michael Preminger]

Hello!

We are running php 4.3.10

Therefore I need to use php_put_contents through
pear.

Thats what my file looks like:
<?php
require_once 'php/Compat/Function/file_put_contents.php';
$i=0;
while ($i <= 5){
$myArray[$i]="element position $i";
print("dollar-i er nå lik $i<br>\n" );
$i= $i + 1;
}
file_put_contents("array.txt", $myArray);
?>
Im not sure this is related to using a pear version or not, but I get a
Warning: file_put_contents() failed to open stream: Permission denied

Greatful to any clues!

Thanks!!

The dir/file must be writeable for Apache. Chmod the dir/file to 777 or make
Apache the owner to accomplish this (Note: don't use PHP's chmod() function
for this, but login to the server with FTP/SSH and peform the modification
through the client.

Thank you!

Writing a file is now possible.
I am able to write a file to a special directory that apache may write to.

I actually wish to do the following:
read a text file with the file() function into a text array,
append a line to the array,
and write back using file_put_contents() into the same file.

this fails.

Is the error due to the file not being "closed" after being read by the
file() function?

Thanks
a lot!

Which error do you get? Normally, the following should work fine:

$file = file($filename);
$file[] = "a line\n";
file_put_contents($filename, implode("", $file));

Sorry to have bothered you. It was a simple file-access related problem.
