That was good advice.
PHP cannot open a file because the user that runs PHP doesn't have the
right permissions on that file.

Solution?
1) Find out who runs as PHP
- probably IUSR_<machinename> on IIS/Windows.
- probably nobody, or apache, or www-data on Apache/*nix

2) Give read and/or write permission for this user on the file in question.
