Hi there,

I have a code which grabs an xml-file from another location, reads it and puts the content into al local file. I use fopen, fwrite and fclose. The code goes like this:

<?php

$local_file = 'lala.xml';

$fd1 = @fopen ('http://www.example.com/lulu.xml', 'r');
while ($line=fgets($fd1,4000))

$alltext.=$line;

$fd2 = @fopen('lala.xml', 'w');
@fwrite($fd2, $alltext);

@fclose($fd1);
@fclose($fd2);
?>

On my Apache at home everything works fine. But it doesn't work on the astahost server. I thought all I needed was allow_url_fopen being set to ON and safemode OFF. As far as I understand the PHP information in my accounts phpinfo.php it should all work. Does anybody have an idea why the file is not written?

Thank U

You may have to change the lala.xml permissions to 777 to be able to read, write and execute the file. You can do that in the File Manager. that should work.

Sooooo cool! It works! Thank you very much, overture! I'm sooo stupid, I should have known that 777 thingy.

Thank U!

Issue resolved. Topic closed.
