Use the ftp functions.
Thanks for the tip. I have revised my code to:
// define some variables
$local_file = "C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/test/$id/beamdata.tar";
$server_file = "http://192.168.10.63/test/$id/beamdata.tar";;
// set up basic connection
$ftp_server="http://192.168.10.63";;
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
// login with username and password
$ftp_user_name="apache";
$ftp_user_pass="xxxxx";
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
// try to download $server_file and save to $local_file
if (ftp_get($conn_id, $local_file, $server_file, FTP_BINARY)) {
echo "Successfully written to $local_file\n";
} else {
echo "There was a problem\n";
}
// close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);
I have put this snippet in the local server of where I want the files to be
copied to. However, I see this on my remote server in the logs:
192.168.10.62 - - [16/Jul/2008:16:40:24 -0400] "GET
/beam_calculation.php?id=145&no=16 HTTP/1.1" 200 22 "-" "Mozilla/4.0
(compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)"
Is there something I have missed here?
