[PHP] Ftp upload
Hi everyone, I would like to have a possibility to upload really large files to the website. As we all know, the post_max_size parameter is set to 8Mb by default. However, I see that the ftp_put() function has a local filepath parameter. And the question is: how can I retrieve the local filepath if a user browses to the file from his/her PC?

RE: [PHP] Ftp upload
Andre, I have checked the $_POST, and THE $_FILES.
I am pretty sure the actual path is not passed. Now you can find the path on
the server in the tmp_name of the $_FILES array.
I have read a few DOM related issue concerning the PATH of the file uploaded in
mulitpart/form-data.
Microsoft: Internet Explorer 7 and later. By default, Internet Explorer does
not include folder or directory path information when uploading files to sites.
So this means the Clients Browser is passing the file name NOT the path.
I am sure if you dig around in JavaScript you may find a way to see the value
of that attribute on submit or click.
I have never wanted to know the actual file path from the end user, nor has it
ever been a request for me to do so.
You can however change the ini for upload_max_filesize and post_max_size inside
of your php script at the top.

ini_set('upload_max_filesize', 800);

Andre,
Anything over 7 MB to me should be done with FTP.
You have a lot of issues with file corruption, length of upload, and bandwidth
on each end.
But you have to remember, I am crazy in the head. I think that customer

[PHP] FTP Site
Hi, I'm building a site for a client that has a need to allow their users to upload large files (up to 100mb or more) and store them on the server. I've never had a need to work with PHP's FTP functions until now and, before I go reading the manual to learn how, I wanted to see if this something that I can handle with just PHP, or if I'm going to need to adopt a third party Ajax app or something like that? Any thoughts or even a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ben

Similarly, you'll need to increase max execution time. Since these are clients, I presume they have been authenticated first (otherwise you're opening yourself up to DoS). Alternatively you could use a Flash plugin or Java applet to facilitate the upload.

Basically it splits the file up into chunks (as it encodes it but encoding isn't your concern) and when a chunk is received, message is sent back to the client telling the client it is OK to send the next chunk. It may be dependent upon browser functionality though, since it is the browser that splits the large upload into smaller manageable chunks. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] FTP: File or directory?
I have just got access to a new server, and am playing with upload/download procedures. I looked in the root directory, and see several objects which I assume to be directories. However I was surprised to find there does not appear to be any command to determine if an object is a file or directory, either in PHP FTP or plain FTP. I could try to change to them, or download them, but this seems overkill.

Re[2]: [PHP] ftp root dir?
Hi Al, Tuesday, May 22, 2007, 4:19:22 PM, you wrote: I know that; but, I writing a script, that can be used on different servers, which creates a directory and I want to make certain it is created on the DOC ROOT. I don't want the user to have to test the ftp connection with a ftp utility program first. I'd have to say 'impossible'. This value isn't stored in any one variable or even in a system value you can rely on. For example you could probably extract the FTP home directory of a given user on a Unix system with a bit less pain than on a Windows server, but within IIS which managers FTP on Windows, you'd have to query the IIS service itself (via its COM object) to find out the home dir of a user, which will (and can) vary per user, assuming they even have one set. That doesn't even begin to cover all the various other FTP Servers out there, such as ServU, GlobalScape, TitanFTP, FileZilla Server, SurgeFTP, etc, etc. Each one holds its users root directories in different ways, and you'd need to know them *all*. Some hold them in ini files, some in xml, some in the registry, some in custom binary formats. You get the idea. Like I said, I think you're heading into 'impossible' territory here. Find another way to achieve the same end result.

[PHP] FTP issues
The following issues are not really PHP issues, but more properly FTP server issues, but perhaps people on the list have some ideas on how to solve my problems. I've written a PHP program to mirror data on a local drive to a remote FTP server. It compares file mod times, and only uploads files that are newer. Works like a charm. Except --- The remote FTP server is running on a Fedora LINUX system, but I think any server would present the same issues. To examine the remote directories, I use ftp_rawlist() to get a directory listing which I parse. However, the file modification time does not have a year, and does not show the seconds. I get around this by assuming the year is the current one, and then compare the file times of the local and remote files ignoring local file seconds. If they are different, I use ftp_mdtm() to get the real remote time, and then do my compare. This slows things down a bit, as I have to go to the FTP server one more time. Any thoughts on how to get around this? Is there a way to get a better directory listing? Second and more serious problem is that when I FTP the file to the server, the file mod time gets set to the current (file-creation) time. The same thing happens in a local-to-local file copy using copy(), but I can use touch() to update the mod time. Any thoughts on how I might get the remote FTP server to do the equivalent of touch()? I realize that these are not actual PHP problems, but maybe one of you has run across similar issues. Many thanks.

Re: [PHP] FTP issues
is your 'local system' linux? then the totally non answer is probably that you should be using rsync. if it's a windows machine you can probably still use rsync there by running it on top of cygwin. I would also recommend tunnelling the rsync traffic through an SSH connection.

[PHP] FTP Error
Description:
Warning: ftp_put(): php_connect_nonb() failed: No route to host (65)
I get this error with the reproduce code. it also says Warning: ftp_put():
Type set to I.
It is not uploading the file correctly.
i have php 4.4.1 on iPowerWeb's server, so no upgrade is possible.
Thanks in Advance
Reproduce code:
---
$conn_id = ftp_connect(ftpServer);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, userName, passWord);
ftp_pasv($conn_id, true);
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
echo FTP connection has failed!;
echo Attempted to connect to stp server for user username;
exit;
} else {
echo Connected to ftp server, for user user;
}
$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, bgd.txt, bgdlocal.txt, FTP_BINARY);
if (!$upload) {
echo FTP upload has failed!;
} else {
echo Uploaded $source_file to $ftp_server as $destination_file;
}
// close the FTP stream
ftp_close($conn_id);
Expected result:
Uploaded $source_file to $ftp_server as $destination_file
Actual result:

This tells me that you are unable to find/connect to the ftpServer
that you are giving ftp_connect()
I am wondering if your conditional was not working like it should, try
this instead
if ( $conn_id $login_result ) {
echo Connected to ftp server, for user user;
} else {
echo FTP connection has failed;
echo Attempted to connect to ftp server for user username;

Maybe I should read [1] a little closer, but I did read [2] and I don't see where one can use php to open a folder on a desktop, read its contents, and then upload the files therein. However, I do see a way to upload individual files, but not multiple files _unless_ the user selects them one at a time and then uploads them consecutively via a loop. But, that still requires the user to select the files individually and not the folder that contains them. I certainly can read the contents of a folder on the server, but I don't see how you can do it client-side. Now, am I right, or do you have a way to do this?

Re: [PHP] FTP
Hi Martins, Of course. You can alter it you want. I remember that file size limit devided into two type: 1) local access 2) remote access file size limit only limit remote access because I can upload file from local more than limit. Good luck!!

[PHP] FTP Copy
I've been looking on php.net, but can't find anything that covers this... Basically, I am using PHP FTP to connect to an FTP server and run some functions. I want to copy a directory on the FTP server to another directory on the FTP server. Since there isn't an ftp_copy() function, I have to use ftp_get() to bring the file to the local webserver temp folder, then use ftp_put() to place it into a different folder on the FTP server. This is quite a big pain, since the webserver is not on the same network as the remote FTP server, so it must download the file and then upload it to a different place (takes a long time). Is there an FTP that will just copy the file/folder from the FTP server without the need to download/upload it somewhere else?

[PHP] FTP - moving/copying files
I'm setting up an ftp manager which allows a user to connect to their space on an external server. All the php-ftp functions work fine - after I'd realized how to use the passive functionality - see previous email to list! I've also got working the download and upload functionality, which is quite nice, but annoying - it doesn't allow you to download the file without creating a temporary version (whereas if it were a local copy you'd be able to copy it to a variable, then echo it out... Finally, what I now need to do it be able to move/copy files within the FTP space. The standard FTP commands (mv cp or copy) are not featured in php-ftp functions. Does anyone have any suggestions bar copying the whole lot to a local drive then upload in the new space? Cheers Nunners

// login with username and password
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $username, $password);
// check connection

[PHP] FTP
Hi all!
I took this code directly from PHP.net but I don't get it to work
correctly...I've never worked with ftp-connections with PHP before...
?php
$ftp_server = ftp.example.com;
$ftp_user = foo;
$ftp_pass = bar;
// set up a connection or die
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die(Couldn't connect to
$ftp_server);
// try to login
if (@ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user, $ftp_pass)) {
echo Connected as [EMAIL PROTECTED];
} else {
echo Couldn't connect as $ftp_user\n;
}
// close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);
?
It seems to work fine when I'm trying on my testmachiner (WIndows XP +
Apache) , but when I put the file on the webserver at my webhost (b-one),
then I just get a blank page and showing source-code like this:

Is your web host running something other than Windows? Does it have the
ftp functions enabled? Make a phpinfo page, and access that in your
browser to see if the ftp functions are enabled. You are more than
likely not seeing the error on your host because they have error
reporting turned off. You can use ini_set to switch this if you want.

[PHP] FTP Chmod problem
Hello everyone. I have a script where I am using FTP functions to chmod files/folders. I'm running into a problem with the ftp_chmod() function when trying to change the permissions of a directory. Here is the code I'm using: ftp_chmod($connId, 0777, $folder); The function almost works, but when I check the permission of the folder after it's run, the folder has 410 for permissions instead of 777. So, it is changing the permissions, but not to the correct value. Now when I use the following code, it seems to work fine: $chmodCmd = CHMOD 0777 .$file; ftp_site($connId, $chmodCmd); This properly changes the folder permissions to 777. Does anyone know why the ftp_chmod() function doesn't work correctly? As a side note, the ftp_chmod() function works correctly on a file, but not a directory. Any help is appreciated.

[PHP] ftp problems
Hello, I have a site that allows developers to upload current modules to the webserver. It has been requested that when this is done, I also ftp a backup copy to a remote server. Something is wrong here. The file upload code works. The back ftp code works,only if I comment out the move_uploaded_file() function. I can not get them both to work. After the move_uploaded_file() function moves the file to the webserver, the ftp_put() fails, but if I comment out the move_uploaded_file(), the ftp_put() works. Can anyone help me with this? I have posted this on other forums and working on this for a couple of weeks now. 1. I am uploading the module to the webserver. 2. Then in the next step want to ftp same module to backup server.

Hi
I got a direct email reply yesterday which didn't show up on this list.
Basically I needed to replace
if (ftp_put($c, $ftp_server, $tmp_file, FTP_ASCII)){
with
if (ftp_put($c, $_FILES['ftp_f']['name'], $tmp_file, FTP_ASCII)){
and it worked.
The OUR FTP SERVER was just a suggested meaning for the url which is
actually in there.
Thanks for the help

[PHP] FTP functions
Hi I checked ou the ftp functions of PHP, what I wanted to ask was that if I connect to a remote server and issue and ftp_fget() command the file will be downloaded to the server running the PHP code and Apache webserver or the client machine from which we are calling it ? In the sense for example I have a client machine running on windows XP, I launch the mozilla firefox browser in that and call for the ftp_code.php on my server (http://server). The ftp_code.php contains a code which connects to a remote ftp server and then using the ftp_fget() function downloads a file from the remote server. Now where will this file be downloaded ? Though I have an inkling that since PHP is a server side scripting language, the file will be downloaded to the server only... But i still wanted to confirm Please confirm Thanks in advance Vaibhav Sibal -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The short answer is it would download it to the server, not the client on which Firefox is running. But if you were wanting to transfer the file to the client, I'd think you could do something creative like this: 1. Have your script download the file from the remote server. 2. Once the file has been downloaded, display a new page to the browser with a link to the file. 3. Then the user can click the link to retrieve/open the file. Now this may not be the best solution, it just happens to be what I could think of off the top of my head. There may be better ways to accomplish the same thing. Hope that helps!

[PHP] ftp upload via web form - problem getting the file name correct
Hi
I have tried creating a script which will allow our core staff to upload
files to our FTP server.
I don't have a problem with the uploading of a local file to our FTP server
with the correct authentication etc, the problem I am having, is that the
file which gets uploaded always has the filename of 'www.ourdomain.net'
which is the destination web server name.
I have a form, which has a file 'browse' element. PHP stores the local file
in /tmp/ as with a temporary file name (I can see this with
$_FILES['$file']['tmp_name']), but I don't know why it gets converted to
'www.ourdomain.net' in the final stages?
My code (rough, but you get the idea);
Thanks for any help

$ftp_server = 'OUR FTP SERVER';

I had to use the ftp options to delete the old file first since I cant use: $handle = fopen(ftp://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/somefile.txt, w); It won't allow for truncating the file to zero length.

Maybe I missed it the second time through, but I still can't find anything that makes that the entire PURPOSE of what you referred too. Like I said, I might have missed it though, that one is for ftping a file. What I was hoping for is to NOT have to create the file locally first before uploading it. Right after sending this email, I was looking for something else and found out that fopen is what I was looking for. I still have to use the ref.ftp.php ftp functions to delete the file on the remote server first though because fopen can not open an existing file on a remote server, zero it out and then write to it and it can't just delete a remote file.that I know of. So I have to delete it first with the ftp functions, then ftp it over from the variable into a remote file. At least I don't have to create a temporary file on the local server first. That is what I was really trying to avoid. Thanks Steve -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I have everything worked out except for the ftping. I have read through http://us4.php.net/manual/en/ref.ftp.php and I know I can get the data from the database, save it to a file and ftp it. Does anybody know if I can skip the step of saving it to a file and ftp/stream it directly to a filename on another server?

RE: [PHP] FTP script and project
[snip] I'm in need of some fully functional stand-alone php FTP scripts, I've searched the web, have downloaded a couple but they don't work. While this looks valid and appears to be uploading the file, no file is ever saved other than a temporary file that vanishes as soon as the file has completed uploading. [/snip] Have you RTFM? http://us2.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php contains an example or two and explains that the temp file disappears and that you should use http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php Sorry you don't have time to figure it out. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

If you have something, please send it to me, a variety of choices for test purposes would be ideal.

[HTTP upload code snipped] It seems that you're confused as to what FTP is and what HTTP is. Perhaps if you explained what you are trying to do then someone might be able to point you in the right direction. -- Jason Wong - Gremlins Associates - www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design Hosting * Internet Intranet Applications Development * -- Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general -- New Year Resolution: Ignore top posted posts -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
