 * Hi euroreseller,
 * If the file is in fact in your web root you should be able to access it via:
   
   [http://mydomain.com/file.php](http://mydomain.com/file.php)
 * If WordPress is installed in your web root you should, for example, be able to
   view the license at [http://mydomain.com/license.txt](http://mydomain.com/license.txt).
   Is the PHP file you are trying to run in the same folder as license.txt?
 * There’s a possibility the file is in a subfolder if you uploaded an entire program
   in which case you must access the file in the subfolder:
    [http://mydomain.com/subfolder/file.php](http://mydomain.com/subfolder/file.php)
 * Finally, if you are certain you have the URL, folders and filename correct (might
   be case sensitive) you should check the ownership and permissions of the files
   and folders. The ownership and permissions should be the same as the WordPress
   files that you are able to execute.
