    I have uploaded and set up the scripts outside the main Public_html folder, all seems fine except when i try the basic example

    require_once(FULL_PATH.'/app/phpdocx/classes/CreateDocx.inc');

    $docx = new CreateDocx();
    $docx->addText('DOCX content');
    $docx->addText('End DOCX content');
    $docx->createDocx(FULL_PATH.'app/word_documents/example.docx');

    The FULL_PATH is the real path to my base hosting dir.

    I get the following error

    Warning: ZipArchive::extractTo() [ziparchive.extractto]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 512 is not allowed to access app/temp owned by uid 99 in app/phpdocx/classes/CreateDocx.inc on line 1091
    2012-12-12 09:21:30,761 FATAL - Error while extracting the Base Template: there may be problems writing in the default tmp folder


    I have made an amendment to CreateDocx.inc to specify the exact temp location:
    private function getTempDir() {
    /*
    Marc Comented to specify temp location
    if ( !function_exists('sys_get_temp_dir')) {
    function sys_get_temp_dir() {
    if ($temp = getenv('TMP')) {
    return $temp;
    }
    if ($temp = getenv('TEMP')) {
    return $temp;
    }
    if ($temp = getenv('TMPDIR')) {
    return $temp;
    }
    $temp = tempnam(__FILE__,'');
    if (file_exists($temp)) {
    unlink($temp);
    return dirname($temp);
    }
    return null;
    }
    } else {
    return sys_get_temp_dir();
    }
    */
    return 'app/temp';
    }


    I have even opened that folder to permissions 777, and to differant users including nobody(apache user)

    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks
