hello all,
I was updating the Knowledge base on our UCSD ECE helpdesk and when I hit submit, I get the following error. I want to learn more about this error and how i can resolve it. Thank you for your help.

Warning: mkdir(../kbase/attach_folders/ehodge) [ function.mkdir]: Permission denied in /Library/WebServer/ecehelpdesk/kbase/upkbase.php on line 23

it looks like the php script is trying to create a directory and the web server does not have sufficient permission to do so at the specified path.

it's hard to say whether this is a problem with the data in the knowlege base being uploaded or a problem with file permissions on the server...

The PHP online manual pages are a great resource too.
