What are common issues when trying to access network files in PHP scripts?

Common issues when trying to access network files in PHP scripts include permission errors, incorrect file paths, and network connectivity problems. To solve these issues, make sure that the PHP script has the necessary permissions to access the network files, double-check the file paths for accuracy, and ensure that the network connection is stable. 

// Example code snippet to access network files in PHP

if (file_exists($networkFilePath)) {
    $fileContents = file_get_contents($networkFilePath);
    echo $fileContents;
} else {
    echo "Error: File not found.";
}
