Please get a decent TXT viewer instead of notepad.
AFAIK it was never able to display Unix line endings properly.
Does your FTP server understand "TYPE A" command?

Description:
------------
The ftp function always transfer files in binary mode which results in
textfiles being corrupted with no newlines.
The configure line we used is
./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql
--enable-module=so --enable-ftp
We have not made any changes to php.ini.
We tested on both the latest CVS snapshot and PHP 4.4.4
The code below expects a file named testfile.txt to be located in
/var/www/html/ and a ftp server on localhost with user test, password
test, address localhost and a folder named testdir. When we look in the
logfile of the ftp server we see that the file actually was transferred
in binary mode, we tried 2 different ftp servers with the same result.
The ftp server and webserver are on the same machine (Linux Redhat),
the php page is browsed from a windows XP computer and testfile.txt is
downloaded and viewed in windows XP with notepad.
This bug resembles Bug #19036 but this is between windows and linux
which uses different newline characters. Therefore we must use ascii
mode.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// set up basic connection
$ftp_server = "localhost";
$ftp_user_name = "test";
$ftp_user_pass = "test";
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
// login with username and password
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
// check connection
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
echo "FTP connection has failed!";
echo "Attempted to connect to $ftp_server for user
$ftp_user_name";
exit;
} else {
echo "Connected to $ftp_server, for user $ftp_user_name";
}
$source_file = "/var/www/html/testfile.txt";
$destination_file = "/testdir/testfile.txt";
// upload the file
$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $destination_file, $source_file,
FTP_ASCII);
// check upload status
if (!$upload) {
echo "FTP upload has failed!";
} else {
echo "Uploaded $source_file to $ftp_server as
$destination_file";
}
// close the FTP stream
ftp_close($conn_id);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
That the file was transferred in ascii mode and that the ftp server
logfile would confirm that.
Actual result:
--------------
The file was transferred in binary mode. This was verified when opening
the textfile and the newlines are gone, replaced by 3 squares. Also the
ftp server logfile states that the transfer was in binary mode.
This is true for both uploads and downloads.
FTP server works as expected when using a regular ftp application e.g.
flashfxp, filezilla etc.
