PHPOpenChat / Discussion / Hilfe/Help: /tmp folder write access problem! (on Lycos)

Anonymous - 2003-05-22

Where exactly is test.php looking when it says it's looking for 'Webserver write access in "/tmp"'? I've created a folder in both my root folder and my /chat3 folder (/tmp and /chat3/tmp), and used my FTP program to CHMOD them to 666 but it STILL comes back saying that it doesn't have write access. Any help would be desired.

  hi
  
  you can try following:
  change in the config.inc.php the value from define('TMPDIR','/tmp'); to define('TMPDIR','tmp');
  create the folder tmp on your root folder.

  As a comment to this solution....
  I rather think that the full path to the locally created tmp-directory is needed.
  
  Just defining 'tmp' will be a relative path, wich will be problematic for the admin/index.php
  
  So, do as acfuchs says but use the full path to the created tmp-directory.
  
  Can't say here what this full path will be, but if you check the error-message with "test.php" you will see it there...
  
  You will however get green on all points with just stating 'tmp' but most likely you will get problems with the admin-pages when you are operator.
  
  But, try both if you wan't to check it out...
