mkdir() in php is setting folder permission to 755 But I Need 777?

I am trying to create a folder on my server using php when i set it to 0777 it comes out as 755?

mkdir($create_path, 0777);

Thank you

This really works for me!, you should close now this question!

  1. Create the directory!

  2. Give 777 permissions!

    $estructure = '../files/folderName';

if(!mkdir($estructure, 0777, true)){
    echo "<br/><br/>ERROR: Fail to create the folder...<br/><br/>"; 
}  else echo "<br/><br/>!! Folder Created...<br/><br/>";

chmod($estructure, 0777);

  3. Enjoy it!

Try this:

<?php
// files will create as -rw-------
umask(0);
// create a file, eg fopen()

chmod('/path/to/directory', 0777);
?>

The umask of the process is set to 0022. You'll need to set it to 0 if you want to create something with those two write bits set.

Try this:

$old_umask = umask(0);
mkdir($create_path, 0777);
umask($old_umask);
