What are common permission issues when using FTP in PHP scripts?

Common permission issues when using FTP in PHP scripts include not having the appropriate write permissions to upload files or create directories on the server, or not having the correct read permissions to download files. To solve these issues, you can check and set the permissions of the files and directories before performing any FTP operations. 

// Check and set permissions for files and directories
$ftp_server = 'ftp.example.com';
$ftp_user = 'username';
$ftp_pass = 'password';

$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user, $ftp_pass);

// Set permissions for uploaded files
ftp_chmod($conn_id, 0644, 'upload_file.txt');

// Set permissions for created directories
ftp_mkdir($conn_id, 'new_directory');
ftp_chmod($conn_id, 0755, 'new_directory');

ftp_close($conn_id);
