What are common pitfalls for beginners when setting up a PHP script on a Raspberry Pi for a weather station?

Common pitfalls for beginners when setting up a PHP script on a Raspberry Pi for a weather station include incorrect file paths, missing dependencies, and improper permissions. To avoid these issues, make sure to double-check your file paths, install any necessary libraries or packages, and set the correct permissions for your PHP script. 

// Example PHP script with correct file paths and permissions

<?php
// Set the correct file path for the data file
$dataFile = '/var/www/html/weather/data.txt';

// Check if the file exists and is writable
if (file_exists($dataFile) && is_writable($dataFile)) {
    // Your PHP code here
} else {
    echo "Error: Data file is not accessible.";
}
?>
