Copying File From Hosted Remote Sever To Local Machine
I am trying to use php to automate the copying of a file from my remotely hosted directory to my computer. I have put together the following but it will only do the copying from one directory to another on the remote server. Reading the postings on these functions they suggest that it can be done but it appears to be the case if your are hosting your site on the same machine you want to copy the files to. Does anyone know if there are functions in php to do the transfer from remote server to my machine or if the code below will acheive this with modification? <?php $ftp_server = "xxxxxxxx"; $ftp_user = "xxxxxxx"; $ftp_pass = "xxxxxx"; $local_file = 'myfile.txt' $server_file = 'myfile.txt' // set up a connection or die $conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die("Couldn't connect to $ftp_server"); $login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user, $ftp_pass); // check connection if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) { die("FTP connection has failed !"); } // try to change the directory to myfilesdirectory if (ftp_chdir($conn_id, "myfilesdirectory")) { echo "Current directory is now: " . ftp_pwd($conn_id) . ""; } else { echo "Couldn't change directory"; } if (ftp_get($conn_id, $local_file, $server_file, FTP_BINARY)) { echo "Successfully written to $local_file"; } else { echo "There was a problem"; } // close the connection ftp_close($conn_id);
Server To Server File Transefer Script, Getting Wrong File Size
Any help on this is most appreciated. I have created a function to download a file. It seems to work except the file sizes differ greatly. I start off downloading a 5mb .zip file and end up with a 2mb .zip file on the initiating host. Thanks for any advice on this. function get_http_file ($host_url, $http_file) { global $host_url, $http_file; $fp = fopen("$host_url/$http_file","rb"); while(!feof($fp)) { $my_file .= fgets($fp, 4096); } $fptmp = fopen("/tmp/$http_file","wb"); fputs($fptmp,$my_file); fclose($fp); fclose($fptmp); if (file_exists("/tmp/$http_file")) { $result_code = 1; } else { $result_code = 0; } return $result_code;
Test Server To Live Server - Best Way Of Handling Different File Paths In Scripts?
I have taken over someone else's PHP code and am quite new to PHP. I made some changes and have implemented them to a live environment fine so far. However, I now want to setup a test environment. All the PHP scripts start with a few lines of: require_once "library file at specific location on server" and when I move them from the test location to live location I have to manually apply the changes to each script to reflect the different paths for each server. I was thinking of writing a small script that is contained within the same folder as any folder that contains scripts that actually calls another require for that server . E.g. Have script do_something.php which I am developing regularly. On live server it starts with require_once "/home/live/phplib/library.php"; On test server require_once "/home/test/phplib/library.php"; Currently I apply a manual change this (via global change or whatever) when moving from Test to Live However, I might just change all requires to: require_once "./require.php"; And then have a server specific version of require.php that contains the necessary requires for the particular server on which it resides. This way I can just change all the scripts to just require the require.php file in the same folder as itself. The actual PHP scripts where I do most of my updates need no changes whether on live or test servers. I just wanted to know if there was a better way of doing it then this. I know nothing about directives in PHP or if there was a way of determining the current server name and then calling different require commands appropriately.
Copying Files
The situation is I have a template.php file, and I wan't my script to copy this file and give the new copy a new name. This is the code so far, but it doesn't copy... $temp = "template.php"; $file = $linktextdata . ".php"; if (!copy($temp, $file)) { echo "copy of $temp failed"; } I test echoed the variables, and they look ok.
Image Copying
I have this form tag to send an image to my message board: <input type=file name=picture> and the enctype="multipart/form-data" in in the form tag. I them use $picure_name to do two things.

I then try to copy the message to the images directory:exec("cp $picture /full/path/to/mbimages/$picture_name"); The image never gets there. I don't get any error messages, but the image never shows up in that directory.

Copying A Multidimensional Array To $_SESSION
Specifically, is it possible to copy a multidimensional array into the $_SESSION array - ie a deep clone of all keys and data? I naively assumed that $_SESSION["myArray"'] = $myArray ; would work but it doesn't appear to work. Is there a single function or assignment I can use, or would I need to use a "foreach" at every level?
Error While Copying Files After Upload
I'm trying to allow users to upload to the server. The system seems to upload okay (at least it takes a while for the page to refresh after the submit button is pressed). When the submit button is pressed and the files are uploaded, it reloads the script (a $PHP_SELF in the form tag). What happens next is that it tries to copy the uploaded files (a maximum of 3 files can be uploaded) to a more permanent directory on the server. code:
Copying Variable Part Of A String
I have strings like these: $line = "Item <name> xxx stock, costs yyy and will sell for amount zzz"; Problem is <name> can consist of 1..n words. Most items are single words, but some are up to 8 in my example, and there are is no set maximum (well, max is 80 chars I believe, have to look in the stock db, not too relevant I think) I found this out the hard way. I thought I was clever (never do that again) by doing this: $words = explode (" ", $line); $itemname = $words [1]; This only works for single-word names. Now I want to create or use an existing function that simply copies everything between Item and the first numerical substr. The function then should look like: $itemname = GetSubStr ("Item" , <numerical> , $line); <numerical> should be a template of some sort I think.
Controlling The Copying Of Images From A Site
Is there a way to prevent users copying a full size image from a web page. Displaying the image with a smaller width and height only affects the image as viewed, the actual full size image file is still downloaded. I know I can get around it by having two versions of an image, the full size one and a smaller on for display purposes. but is there a way around having to have two images and use the full ssize one and stop it being copied or if copied will only be a thumbnail?
Email With File Attachements - How To Upload File To Server From Browser?
I have a PHP script that sends an email with attachment and works great when provided the path to the file to send. However this file needs to be on the same server as the script.

Is there an easy way to do this? Or can I approach this problem from a completely different angle.

Saving A File From One Server To Another
I'm half-way there with this, but I need some assistance, please. I'm attempting to save a JPG file from one server to another. I'm using fopen() to open the remote file, fread to get the contents, closing, using fwrite(rb) to open a new file on my server, writing the contents, and closing. However, it seems that I'm not getting the entire file from the remote server. Am I going about this wrong? Is there a better, easier way (that doesn't involve CURL or any of those other acronyms) to get these images?
Getting File Names On Another Server With PHP
My ISP provides me with minimal space on a dedicated server running PHP, and 250MB on a separate HTTP server. I'm trying to make a gallery using PHP. The script is held on the PHP server, and the thumbnails and images are on the separate HTTP server. Ideally I'd like to be able to get a listing of the contents of the HTTP server where the images are stored. I want to do this so that when I add/delete/change images, the dynamic nature of the site just picks up the new files and I don't have to maintain a separate database of the image names and where they're stored.

Including A .php File From Another Server?
I am trying to include a function in a .php file on a different server from the main .php files. I am using: include_path=http://www.anotherserver.com/foldername; include(http://www.anotherserver.com/folder...iletocall.inc); The .inc file is php formatted. Variables are passed to it (not via GET or POST though) and returned using return(variablenames, etc); But for some reason it doesn't appear to work properly. Am I correct in using the .inc extension? Are the commands above correctly written? Basically I am trying to use the fsockopen function in a .php file on another server where I know it works and return the results to a server where the fsockopen command doesn't work.

I currently have 1 server on a local network hosting a site but the net connection can no longer take keep up with the bandwidth. I was thinking of making a mirror of my site and push all of the large files to the second server thats at another company. Therefore i'd have www1.mysite.com which has our databases etc and core files. and www2.mysite.com would store all the images, videos etc. The problem is that the uploads need to happen on my server because I have a bunch of patches on my PHP that the other hosts dont that my upload scripts require to show the amount of a file uploaded etc. Is there a way to upload directly to another server? Or is it possible to upload to server 1, then automatically ftp it to server 2, then delete from server 1?
