I tried to to the following:
Copy files and folder from folder .../myfolder/subfolder etc. to folder .../anotherfolder/subfolder etc.
Copy this works fine.
The Folder has permissions 0755 and, if I copy that, the new folder has the same permissions.
So I want to change the permission to 0644, I tried to do that with
if(!chmod($path, 0644)){ die("Error"); }
it failed with the message
chmod(): Permission denied
my path is relative, the same as I used to copy.
I don't understand why it doesn't work.
Thank for helping and explain
