Hi,
The apache is running currently on root as the user.
The parent directory, test, is set to 0755.
I have no problems making new directories directly from the terminal prompt, and it does not give me user execution errors like the one in the following.
I am getting confused with why I can create directories now no longer through the PHP but only through the command prompt manually.
Does this give you information on what my problem might be?
Alice

Under what user does apache run?
What are the ownerships on the parent directory?
Can you create the directory if you log in as the apache user (su
apacheuser)?
Cheers,
Rob.
