but don’t know where is problem

My Code

mkdir('abc/data/123');
copy("edf/igk/123/aa.jpg","abc/data/123/aa.jpg ");

Answer 1

mkdir() will only create a single directory (the one at the END of the path specification), unless you turn on its second flag:

mkdir('abc/data/123', 0777, TRUE);
                            ^^^^

Without that flag, the ‘abc’ and ‘abc/data’ directories MUST exist before you can create the ‘123’ directory. With the flag enabled, PHP will create any missing intermediate directories for you.

As well, since you’re using relative paths, the ‘edf’ directory must exist as a subdirectory in whatever directory is your “current working directory”. If it’s not in your cwd, then you’ll have to change you path to point to it.
