无法在 Linux 服务器上使用 PHP 写入文件

Question

Heys Guys. I'm trying to create a new xml file with php on my ubuntu server. The code looks like

$myfile = fopen("test.xml", "w") or die ("Unable to write file");
fwrite($myfile, "Test");
fclose($myfile);

But whenever this php file is called I get "Unable to write file". Does anybody know what the issue is and how to fix it? Thanks

In the Linux server, it may be a file permission issue try this command below in your directory. I am assuming your directory is /var/www/html if not replace this with your directory path and run commands.

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html

chmod -R 755 /var/www/html
