If you're running on a UNIX-like system, you need to use chmod on the 
command line or otherwise manipulate the file permissions, like via SFTP. 
 
'man chmod' (without the quotes) will get you the information that you need. 
 
In short, the web server traditionally runs as a user and group 
different from your own, so the file needs o+rw permissions to be read 
and written to, respectively.
