The following function is related to chown information. Okay, without further ado, let’s take a look.
chown
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
chown - change file owner
Description
boolean chown(string $filename, mix$user)
An attempt was made to change the owner of the file to user user. Only the Supervisor can change a person's profile.
Parameters
File name
File path.
User
Username or number.
Return value
Returns TRUE or FALSE on success or failure.
Example
// File name and username to use
$file_name= "foo.php";
$path = "/home/sites/php.net/public_html/sandbox" . $file_name ;
$user_name = "root";
// Set the user
chown($path, $user_name);
// Check the result
$stat = stat($path);
print_r(posix_getpwuid($stat['uid']));
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
