Hello Guys,

I am new to the environment of php and apache server. I am modifying my php files and accessing the files through network. But when i tried to save my modification it returns "Unable to edit file.php". I already created a permission to the htdocs folder but its always access denied when i try to save the files. Now my question is how can i put a access to the php files.? :cry:

What happens when you use notepad or something?

Is still the same, "Access denied" and as i check the folder and sub folders of htdocs it is on read only.. And i uncheck the read only. But when i check that folder again the next day, it resume to read only. :?:

How are you accessing these files, via FTP? If you can upload the files there with FTP you should have permission to edit and save them too.

Sounds like you should talk with your host provider and/or try a different ftp tool too.
