PHP refuses to create a logfile

please see second post...

I have iis, windows 2003 server, and php running on my server.

In testingon my laptop, my code writes fine to the log file. However, now that I am on the server it will not write to the log file. All the files are the same as on the test machine. I am using wamp on the test laptop I write the code to.

This is the sample code for the logging that works on my test laptop but not on the server.

@extract($_POST);
$filename = "formdata.txt";
file_put_contents($filename, serialize($_POST)."\r\n",FILE_APPEND);
 

Is there anything in IIS I need to change to allow the logging?

Or maybe the file name needs to change to specify the exact location?


Thanks!

file_put_contents() only works with php 5.
If version 4.x.x is on the server then it will throw an error.
You will need fopen, fread, fwrite, fclose commands

Yeah I did upgrade to 5 the other day.. I figured out the issue was not allowing php to create the file and that wasnt allowing php to write to it. I deleted it and it ran and created a new file.

Changed thread title to better describe the problem (did you know that threads whose titles contain three words or less actually get FEWER responses?).
