I'm trying to save a file like this:
echo file_put_contents("/tmp/foo.txt","Hello World. Testing!");
But the file /tmp/foo.txt is not created.
I'm on Ubuntu 18. My code is at /var/www/html/index.php and I'm requesting localhost/index.php.

Does your webserver account have access to `\tmp` – RiggsFolly Feb 06 '19 at 13:05

@RiggsFolly the permissions of `/tmp` directory are these: `drwxrwxrwt 30 root root 4096 Feb 6 13:01 . ` – tirenweb Feb 06 '19 at 13:06

Try writing the file to `file_put_contents("foo.txt","Hello World. Testing!");` does that work – RiggsFolly Feb 06 '19 at 13:07
