Re: FTP using PHP in Zend Core still not working

["Kelly Cookson" <KCookson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think I see what may be the problem. The Toolbox for Java FTP Get
function is using Java IO underneath the covers. The documentation says:

public boolean get(String sourceFileName,
                    String targetFileName) throws IOException,
FileNotFoundException

Gets a file from the server. The source file is on the server, accessed
via FTP so the path separator character (if any) must be a forward
slash. The target file is on the client, accessed via java.io so the
path separator character (if any) must be client specific. 

Parameters: 
sourceFileName - The file to get on the server. 
targetFileName - The file on the target file system. 
Throws: IOException 
If an error occurs while communicating with the server. 

The PHP FTP classes may not have a way of accessing the target file on
the client. Accessing the target file via Java IO may be why the Toolbox
for Java FTP get functions works when the PHP get function does not.

Anybody able to confirm or disconfirm?

Thanks,
Kelly

I have already tested the sign on and ftp_connect() functions doing just
what you recommended. They are working fine. I can connect to the FTP
server on "MyAS400" using the PHP classes.

Thanks,
Kelly

It would be useful to know which command is failing and why.

You have no error checking in this script in terms of checking that  
the earlier commands succeeded - as a result you don't even know if  
the connection or sign-ons succeeded.

I would suggest adding a print-r to each command and checking that the  
connect worked e.g.


> $conn = ftp_connect("myAS400");
   If !$conn ....... ;

> print_r (ftp_login($conn,"username","password"));
