I uploaded the phpaccess from here: http://www.krizleebear.de/phpaccess/dynamisch/index.php

after logging in, when I go to enter a username and password, I get errors and they don't get entered. I get the following errors:

Warning: fopen(.htpasswd): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/fargo/www/members/phpaccess.php on line 1034

Warning: fputs(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/fargo/www/members/phpaccess.php on line 1036

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/fargo/www/members/phpaccess.php on line 1038

Someone said to make sure the file permissions are correct and I asked them how to make sure but they never got back to me about it. this is what is on that above website about doing it and I have no idea where or how to do it:

Upload phpaccess.php

Set the following filepermissions:

phpaccess.php: chmod 0775
Directory phpaccess lays in: chmod 0777

Start PHPAccess in your browser

I hope that is my problem. thanks in advance for any help.

go to your ftp, right-click on phpaccess.php and press properties / CHMOD ... type 777 into the text field.

Thanks for the quick reply Rev. I don't use FTP - I do it manually through my control panel. This is what the top section looks like:

I'm assuming it has something to do with the part just above this sentence but I really have no idea. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Any one else have any suggestions on what would cause these errors?

Thanks!

Hi !

You only have one big problem You have 3 warnings, but warning 2 + 3 just depend on warning 1.

It seems like the script in /home/fargo/www/members/phpaccess.php tries to open/write/close the .htaccess file without having the rights for this. Either your user is not authorized to access this file which could be solved if you change chmod to 0777. You wont be able to do this on a web interface (change the chmod) because it seems like the user the webserver runs on does not have enough privileges to change the file's mods. So you either will have to connect to this server or you will not be able to run this script...
