error while uploading a php file to linux server
 

I got an error while uploading a file named "xxxxxxxx.php"to linux server

Error in detail
---------------------------
Upload of file 'xxxxxxxx.php' was successful, but error occurred while setting the permissions and/or timestamp. If the problem persists, turn on 'Ignore permission errors' option.
---------------------------
Permission denied.
Error code: 3
Error message from server: Permission denied
Request code: 9
any help to resolve this issue will be appreciated

Maybe if you provided some actual details, someone could help you. You say "uploading"...HOW are you uploading the file? Web page? FTP? SCP? SFTP? Custom-script? To what KIND of Linux server (version/distro)? Has this EVER worked for you? Where do you see this error?

And did you read the message? The file got uploaded, but the permissions/timestamp settings are wrong. Have you checked it? Tried to set it manually? Did you try to do as it suggested, and turn on the "ignore permission errors" option, as it says?

I tried to upload files from a windows machine using WINSCP client to linux machine.
server os is centos 5.5
role: webserver
I got this error from client machine(windows)
datas get uploaded if we skip error somewhat

Obviously you have problems with permissions on server, whereas you might not have the permissions to change files in that directory.
Have you tried maybe login with some other user, maybe changing the settings in WinSCP (change file date/time on upload/download - disable) ?

Ok, so you're using WinSCP...are you USING SCP to transfer, or SFTP/FTP? Which transport? And again, have you checked the permissions on the directory where you're trying to put the file? Have you tried uploading the file to the users home directory, then copying it to it's final destination via a terminal session?

thanks TBOne/lithos
AS you said, there was problem with permission to the present directory.now problem has been solved.thank you once again
