FAQ: Everytime I save a file it’s empty?

Sometimes when you’re saving files via a PHP script or your online file manager you’ll find that everytime you save it, it’s empty.

This is caused by one of two things:

1. You don’t have the correct access permissions to modify the file.
2. You are over your disk space allowance (quota) – check this in cPanel and use the disk usage viewer to locate areas where you may be able to remove files.
