Hey guy's.

I'm currently developing a Bug Tracking system in PHP, I'm currently in the process of developing the installation system, I have everything else working such as creating the connection file for the SQL database, and inserting the data and tables to the SQL, but id like it to check the file permissions of directory's and files to check there writable (CHMOD 777)

Does anybody know the code to get this working?

Thank's guys :D.

Have a look at the use of the function fileperms() : PHP: fileperms - Manual .

Hi there,

Thank you =]

And, I see, re-read your message and I think just using the function is_writable would do the job, like:

$filename = "test.php";
 
if(is_writeable($filename)) {
   echo "File {$filename} is writeable.";
}else{
   echo "File {$filename} is not writeable (No permissions).";
}
