I am using PHP on Windows NT CGI/FastCGI  and am trying to create a text
file and then write some data to it.

$some_text  = "HelloWorld";
$new_file = fopen("myfile.txt", "w");
fputs($new_file, $some_text);
fclose($new_file);

However I am getting Warning: fopen(myfile.txt): failed to open stream:
Permission denied in...

I don't usually work on Windows but I checked the file permissons on this
folder and they seem to be 777 or drwxrwxrwx

I'm guessing I have no idea how Windows permissions work.

I'm not sure what user PHP runs as when using CGI, so you'll probably need to give "Everyone" permission to read/write to the directory this script is run in.


Right click on the folder, choose the Security tab, and add Everyone as a user with the appropriate permissions.
