This example will check if the $file is readable and writable, otherwise will print an error message.

<?php

$file 
'some_file';

if (
posix_access($filePOSIX_R_OK POSIX_W_OK)) {
    echo 
'The file is readable and writable!';

} else {
    
$error posix_get_last_error();

    echo 
"Error $error: " posix_strerror($error);
}

?>

Notes

Note: When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the files or directories being operated upon have the same UID (owner) as the script that is being executed.
