How do I change the file location?
Now file is in "news" directory, how put file in "old_news"?
This is done by rename.
$success = rename("/news/file.txt", "/news_old/file.txt");
if ($success)
echo "Moved file!";
else
echo "Failed to move file!";
We're going to need more information about the problem. If you're trying to move the location of the PHP file, then just run:
mv file.php ../old_news/
If you're trying to change the working directory of the script, you can use the chdir function.
<?php
chdir("../new_directory/");

<?php
$cmd = 'mv "/home/user/me/dir1" "/mnt/shares/nfsmount/dir2"';
exec($cmd, $output, $return_val);
if ($return_val == 0) {
echo "success";
} else {
echo "failed";
}
?>
