Ftp_put upload empty file

Question

I am trying to upload a file via ftp_put to a windows server.

my code is as follows:

$date = date('ymd'); $file_name = $date.'.csv'; $file_location = 'D:/inetpub/wwwroot/website.com/html/assets/'.$file_name; //set up basic connection $conn_id = ftp_connect(FTP_HOST, FTP_PORT); // login with username and password $login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, FTP_USER, FTP_PASS); // check connection if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) { echo "FTP connection has failed!"; exit; } else { echo "Connected to FTP Server"; } $upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $file_name, $file_location, FTP_ASCII); // check upload status if (!$upload) { echo "FTP upload has failed!"; } else { echo "File Uploaded"; } // close the FTP stream ftp_close($conn_id); 

If I upload the file manually using filezilla, it works fine. If I use the code above, it creates an empty file.

Answer 1

It turns out that UKFast blocked the connection and transmission. (They also require that this be only active mode).

Now they have unlocked it, it works great. (Before it seemed, just a timeout)

Answer 2

Try transferring the file with passive mode enabled:

Passive mode

Answer 3

try using FTP_BINARY instead of FTP_ASCII like this.

 $upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $file_name, $file_location, FTP_BINARY); 

PHP ftp might be a bug, but I found that it pretty much works in binary transfer mode.

Answer 4

enable passive mode on

  ftp_pasv($conn_id, true); 

Answer 5

Thank you "Khan Mohammed" for your reply when I added this part:

ftp_pasv ($ conn_id, true);

The file was uploaded perfectly.
