hi all,

I have a file (mode 644) I want to change to mode 777.
The code:
if (file_exists($this->mailAliasFile))
{
 echo "file exists<br>";
 if (chmod ($this->mailAliasFile, 0777))
  echo "OK<br>";
 else
  echo "not OK<br>";
}

Returns:
file exists
NOT OK

The file is stored on a linux server. Someone knows how I can obtain the rights to modify it?

regards
Stijn
