Hi, Yes, apache can do read/write in /tmp. I can't su to apache. But I created another account in apache group(userid test1). I have such tests by using that account. I can do mv , cp , create new file. After those successful test, I have modified httpd.conf to make apache web server run as test1. But they are still working like the same error. yours, Michael -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
