I'm using Zend Studio for Eclipse and I'm trying to save my file but it failed!

Question

I'm new to PHP development and I just used Zend yesterday. One problem I'm having is saving the file in a directory that is read-only.

I'm using Zend studio to develop PHP scripts. I have XAMPP installed in my Ubuntu in /opt/lampp/ directory.

Now the /opt/lampp/htdocs directory requires privilege access. I can't save anything there. It requires me to sudo everything. I know this is for security reason.

Now, I can just sudo gedit index.php inside the opt/lampp/htdocs/project directory and save the file there. But I want to use my Zend Studio to develop scripts.

When I opened the file inside /opt/lampp/htdocs/project/index.php inside Zend. I can't save it there. The save could not be completed because parent of resource is marked as read-only

Now I dont want to modify the directory to be read/write, I just want to use Zend Studio and allow zend to save files inside the directory.. Please guide me!

Answer 1

Okay, short of running Zend itself under sudo, I'm not sure you're going to be able to do that.

You're asking how to be able to write to a write-protected directory. The answer is "Don't try".

You'll either have to unprotect it or figure out a way to have Zend make a copy of the file in an unprotected area for editing, then copy it back (under sudo) when you close it.

I know which option I'd choose (I'm inherently lazy).

Answer 2

在保存到/ opt / lampp / htdocs /所需的特权下运行Zend Studio。
