I'm writing an installer script for a project I'm doing. I have the compiler and everything done, but I ran into a wall face first.. I noticed that with safemode enabled, newly created files have the same owner as php which is my username, but with it disabled, the new files still have the same owner as php but it's nobody. I have to make the installer compatable with safemode both enabled and disabled. but if the file's owner is nobody, you have limited permissions with things like ftp. is there an easy way around this, or do I have to add an option for the installer to write the new files over ftp?
