Unable to chmod files: “Operation not permitted”

问题

i want to delete files from a directory via php. Somehow my php_errorlog always tells me:

[06-Jun-2010 19:38:46] PHP Warning: chmod() [function.chmod]: Operation not permitted in /Users/myname/htdocs/

if ($_POST) {
        echo "yeah!!!";
        print count($_POST['deletefiles']);
        chmod($path, 0777); //server rights
        foreach ($_POST['deletefiles'] as $value) {
            print $value;
            unlink($path .'/' . $value);
        }
        //chmod($path, 0666); //server rights
    }

what am I doing wrong? Thank you

回答1:

Does the user PHP is running as have write access to the files you're attempting to chmod? Remember that this user is most likely not the same as your own account.

回答2:

chmod these files to 0666 using your FTP client first.
