Slight Poll Problem

[D@Z]

I just installed a free poll script on my site and it's got a strange error. It says;

Warning: fread(): Length parameter must be greater than 0. in /home2/dazport/public_html/poll/poll.php on line 50

I checked line 50 on poll/poll.php and it has;

$contents = fread($ip, filesize($ipfile));

The URL to the page so you can see for yourself is http://www.dazportfolio.com/poll.php

If anyone knows the problem and could tell me, it would be a great help.

Thanks a lot!

i belive that error occurs when a file is returned to be 0 bytes long.

try these
1. chmod the file your reading to 777
2. check the path exists (logging in via ssh and trying to open it that will will help)
3. edit the file manually and put some text in there to see if i changes
4.

means the doesnt have nothing.

replce $contents = fread($ip, filesize($ipfile)); with:

if(filesize($ipfile)>0)
{
$contents = fread($ip, filesize($ipfile));
}

this will prevent this error
