使用具有正确上下文参数的php复制文件

Question

I am trying to copy a txt file to another txt file with php like this:

<?php
echo copy("pos.txt","positions.txt");
?>

but I get an error :

failed to open stream: Permission denied in E:\Users\user\copy.php on line 2

I believe that if I pass the correct context parameter, as I did with fwrite it will work as well but I have limited knowledge on php.

Answer 1

You need to have write permission for that directory.

You use the directory from your script reside because you did not use full location:

copy("pos.txt","positions.txt");

you need to be shure that this directory have the write permissions
