Hey Richard,

Yes, you are correct. I forgot that the latter parameter must be in the octal numeral system. Thank you for the fix.

Best regards,
Karthik

I also had to change

if( !chmod( $svn, 777 ) )

if( !chmod( $svn, 0777 ) )

As Richard said. But Thank you!!!! you saved me a lot of time with this

Thanks for this sample. Very helpful.

To make it work in my case, I needed to add the leading zero in chmod:

i.e. changed

if( !chmod( $svn, 777 ) )

to be

if( !chmod( $svn, 0777 ) )

I also needed to move the entire if (! chmod(… into the delTree() function to recursively set chmod.

Regards
Richard
