Errno=9 bad file descriptor in php

Im trying to write a file in php with the following code

    $filename = "uploads/stories/".$row['s_source'];
    $handle = fopen($filename, "r");
    if (filesize($filename) == 0) {
      $txt = "{====views====}{====likes====}{====chapters====}{====comments====}";
      fwrite($handle, $txt);
    }
    $content = fread($handle, filesize($filename));
    fclose($handle);

And I get:

Notice: fwrite(): write of 66 bytes failed with errno=9 Bad file descriptor in E:\xampp\htdocs\host\host\storyedit.php on line 20

Warning: fread(): Length parameter must be greater than 0 in E:\xampp\htdocs\host\host\storyedit.php on line 22

Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in E:\xampp\htdocs\host\host\storyedit.php on line 27

But there is no error (I think) in the code. Could someone help me?

I've tried:

  1. Deleting opcache.enable_cli=1 in php.ini
  2. Deleting cache

none worked.

For anybody having this error, it can be as well just opening file with mode 'a'. Using mode 'r' to read files is the right way.

You open with reading access r and then you give a write command >. You need to open with read/write access:

$handle = fopen($filename, "r+");

In relation to error in fread, try:

if (filesize($filename) > 0) {
    $content = fread($handle, filesize($filename));
}
