    mod_python Unable to create file

    Hi,

    I am using Apache and mod_python to service POST/GET requests on MAC
    OS. My script tries to create a file

    file = open(file_path, 'w')

    This fails with the following error

    EACCES
    Permission denied

    What is missing?

    Thanks,
    Kaushik

      To state the ovious: the rights to create a file at `file_path`. Remember
      that web servers usually have their own "user".

          Thanks Marc.
          In Apache what are the ways/directives to set the rights to a folder?

              none. you set permissions via the operating system.

              chmod would be the command from terminal you are looking for.

              or you can do get info on the folder in question via the finder and
              set perms there.
