mkdir() not working

Question

My code

mkdir(\"/some/absolute/path\",0777);

and

mkdir(\"relative/path\", 0777);

is not working, safe mode is

Answer 1

Have you tried with the shortest test possible?

mkdir('directory',0777);

If this does not work I would try creating with a standard CHMOD like 0755 (this is a totally random guess, maybe the server won't allow creating 0777 via PHP)

if this don't work I would say the server probably need different setup / php doesn' thave the writting right on folder, maybe you could ask your host provider?
