The problem I came across this morning is while manually moving files from an old version to the new directory via ftp.  I'm getting a permissions error saying Access is denied.  I believe it is due to the owner of the folder that I created using mkdir() is different than the one I'm using to copy the files to, but I'm not sure how to fix this.  Can I change it while creating the directory in the first place or is it possible to modify it in cpanel for a short time so I can copy my files and then change it back?  Any help would be appreciated.

You may be able to use

chmod($dir, '777'); Or whatever permission you need.

It has been while since I have had to use this so you may want to search 
on it.
