Permission problem

Hi,

I host my site on linux server.

I used to upload files using FTP.

One of my PHP script create files under directory

/count/

It is a counter script, users can signup and get a counter for there web page.

I want to edit one of this file and up load it again.

I have downloaded, modified the file and try to upload.

It says "permission Denied"

I can't over write the files.

The directory "cont" have permission of

drwxrwxrwx

and all files inside the directory is having permission of

-rw-r--r--

When i try change the permission using CuteFTP it says


[biju104.txt]
COMMAND:> SITE CHMOD 777 boby104.txt
550 boby104.txt: Operation not permitted

Can anybody suggest how i can modify the file.

Thanks in advance

Since you've created the file thru PHP without changing the permissons or owner of it, the file owner now is the apache user. And only that user can modify/delete it...
So create a php script that removes the file and then ftp your new file...

Thanks for the help.

I am finding this for the first time.

In my previous host, i think i don't face such problem. Not sure.

Because their setup might vary.
