You do not have a permission for write to the file.
Try change permission by hand.

Since I have the same problem, can you please tell me how to change permission manually?
thanks beforehand,

Just my 2cents worth... but I found that if I put the .dat file in the cgi-bin, then I could change the permissions all I wanted, you can't change to a higher permission level inside the www folder.

for changing atributeson files at you server you can use a ftp-clien
such as window comander (now total commander) or (i am use Pro version) Cute FTP

Well in order to clear things out, are permisions the "CHMod" in the UNIX? I have an apache/1.3.26 server. Does this matter?
I am sorry but my knowledge is limited on such matters.

yes it is same at unix.

Yeah, chmod it say, 777. If you're worried about security, then you can tinker around with making it lower.

thanks alot people,
but the problem still insists. I have made chmod = 777 but still, I cannot write to my file. My file has .txt extension. Does this matter at all?

In more detail, I want to make a program which will be reading the contents of a file from the internet and then append them to this file "random.txt" Although I can read the www file, I cannot append the contents.

Thanks again
