Net_FTP::put()
Synopsis
mixed Net_FTP::put (
string $local_file
,
string $remote_file
,
bool $overwrite = false
,
int $mode = null
)
Description
This uploads a file to the FTP server from the computer your script runs on.
Parameter
-
string $local_file
- The source file you'd like to upload. You can specify this with either an absolute path or a path relative to the scripts directory. (Beware: The script directory is determined by the called script, if you use includes!) -
string $remote_file
- The path (including filename) you'd like to upload to. This could either be an absolute or relative path to a file (not a directory! see: Net_FTP::putRecursive()). -
bool $overwrite = false
- Whether to overwrite the remote file, if it exists or not. If not set the file will not be overwritten. -
int $mode = null
- This has to be one of the constants FTP_ASCII or FTP_BINARY. If not specified, the class will try to determine the mode from the file extension (from extensions.ini) or fall back to the standard transfer mode (attribute).
Return value
mixed
- true on success, otherwise PEAR::Error.
Throws
Several errors may be returned by put. The errornumber is unspecific (until now) and will not tell you anything about the errormessage. Possible errors are:
Error message | Description | Solution |
---|---|---|
Local file '$local_file' does not exist. | The local file you specified does not exist. | Correct the local file path. |
Remote file '$remote_file' exists and may not be overwriten. | The specified remote file exists but may not be overwritten. | Maybe you don't have the permission to overwrite the file. Check the filepermissions. |
File '$local_file' could not be uploaded to '$remote_file'. | The upload of the local file failed. | This may have several reasons: Maybe the local file does not exist or the remote directory you wanted to upload to does not exist or is not writeable. |
Note
This function can not be called statically.
Example
Using put()
<?php
