[php]FTP upload script

[pixelbend]

Hi all,

I am writing an FTP upload script and I'm having a weird problem. I wrote it and tested it by uploading the html and php files that make up the script. It will transfer either of those fine, but any other file I try errors out. Heres the code:

<?php

	//Magna-Tel FTP Upload site
	
	//get variables from form
	$cust = $_POST["customer"];
	$name = $_POST["name"];
	$email = $_POST["email"];
	$ponum = $_POST["ponum"];
	$file = $_POST["file"];
	
	$dest_file = $ponum . "_" . $file;
	
	//Check to see all input is present
	if ($cust == "") echo "<p>Customer name missing!";
	else if($name == "") echo "<p>Name missing!";
	else if($email == "") echo "<p>Email missing!";
	else if($file == "") echo "<p>File name missing!";
	
	//Connect to ftp server
	$ftp_server = "pop3.magna-tel.net";
	$ftp_user_name = "ftpuser";
	$ftp_user_pass = "upload";
	
	$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
	$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
	
	// check connection
	if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
		echo "<p>FTP connection has failed!";
		echo "<p>Attempted to connect to $ftp_server for user $ftp_user_name";
		exit;
	}
	else {
		echo "<p>Connected to $ftp_server, for user $ftp_user_name";
	}
	
	// upload the file
	$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $dest_file, $file, FTP_BINARY);

	// check upload status
	if (!$upload) {
		echo "<p>FTP upload has failed!";
	}
	else {
		echo "<p>Uploaded $file to $ftp_server as $dest_file";
	}

	// close the FTP stream
	ftp_close($conn_id);
	
	//Email art@magna-tel.net and customer with notice
	$art_email = "art@magna-tel.net";
	$art_subject = "FTP file has been uploaded";
	$art_body = "$name from $cust has uploaded file $file to the FTP server.\nPlease check as soon as possible.";
	$art_return = "From:davidg@magna-tel.net";
	
	if ($upload) mail ($art_email, $art_subject, $art_body, $art_return);

?>

I get the "FTP upload has failed!" on all files except upload.php and upload.html

I guess what look suspicious to me is you are using ftp to connect to a mail server. Is this really what you want to do?

Check your apache error log. Usually there will be some more verbose information there.

Got it working. I was not using the proper front end (that was my main problem anyway) on the html side.
