FTP in PHP error

Hi everybody

(hi doctor Nick)

I am stumped at the moment over this php / ftp error.

Code:

$ftp_server= "www.myserver.com";//serverip
   $conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server); 
   
  
   // login with username and password
   $user = "username";
   $passwd = "******";
   $login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $user, $passwd); 

// check connection

  if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) { 
       echo "FTP connection has failed!";
       echo "Attempted to connect to $ftp_server for user $user"; 
       die(); 
   }

 ftp_chdir($conn_id, "public_html");
 ftp_chdir($conn_id, "forms");

// upload the file

$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $_FILES['FormFile']['name'], $_FILES['FormFile']['tmp_name'], FTP_BINARY); 

// check upload status

if (!$upload) { 
       echo "FTP upload has failed!";
   } 

// close the FTP stream 

ftp_close($conn_id); 

Basically, the point of the script, is to upload a file from your machine to a webserver (not the same server that the script is running off, hence why it is ftp instead of move_uploaded_file() etc).

The problem i get is that, there is no php error. But when it gets to the server, it reads 0kb. This script use to work, and then one day, it didn't. I had made a change to the script recently, but i don't see how it would of changed anything considering it's an unrelated peice of code, and is also AFTER the ftp code.

THe form for the script is correct, but for the sake of support, here it is.

Code:

<form name="post" method="post" action="add_query.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="900000"> 
<input name="FormFile" type="file" id="FormFile">
<input type='submit'>
</form>

 

Can you have it echo out some variables being put into the ftp_put() function? It might be a configuration changed which means the variables being passed are invalid or incorrect for some reason.

Also, I'd probably remove the need for the $upload variable...

PHP:

if (!ftp_put($conn_id, $_FILES['FormFile']['name'], $_FILES['FormFile']['tmp_name'], FTP_BINARY)) {
 // it failed
}

I'm pretty sure the problem isn't the code, but the server config, as you said yourself. It seems to be limited to files under 100k. (unless it's a php limitation).
Thanks guys.
