You must log in to post replies.Your php is probably locked down so that it cannot read outside of the web directory. Talk to the support staff of your server about that.
Hi,
write a short PHP script with this line and rename it path.php
Copy and paste it into your data folder and your data folder with path.php call in the browser, then you see the right path.
<? Php echo $ _SERVER ['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];?>
Greeting Michael
Your data folder shouldn't be accessible from the web. It needs to be outside your document root. pinguinto's data folder is in the correct place, but PHP isn't allow to write to it.
