Any ideas of why mkdir is returning true but it’s not creating any folder? Any way it could be blocked? How can I look at this? I have full cpanel access and root.

Thank you!

    From this comment:

    I failed to take into account an existing umask when I did a
    mkdir(dirname, 0755). This ended up creating the directory
    (function returned true), but I didn’t have rights to do anything
    inside the folder, nor could I even view that it existed via ftp.
