Re: [PHP] Copy Function Errors

You need to test using regular FTP, SFTP goes over SSH, while the PHP
script your trying to use is making use of regular old FTP. Make sure
that the linux machine has the ports open for FTP and that you have an
FTP server running on it (SSH is not one).

RE: [PHP] Copy Function Errors

2008-07-17 Thread Wei, Alice J.

Is there some reason that you can't use a simple samba server from the linux, 
to windows box? Or just do a scp copy, or just a simple ftp transfer. All of 
these can be done from the cmd line.

It is funny, because I first started off writing this using shell_exec. I 
started off doing something like a sftp some_server in the commands within 
shell_exec() before I got to what I have now, but I stopped that because I 
don't seem to find any commands that can allow me put passwords and user to the 
actual client to do it. If there is such a thing as allowing me to feed in all 
this in one line without using FTP commands, this would be perfect. So far, I 
have not seen anything like it. I even tried doing an ftp:// on the url of the 
server, and it gives me this DNS error.

I consider that it is easier for me to tar up everything using the command line 
and "transfer" that to another server, and then I can do the rest of the untar 
and other processes without problem. My problem now is that I cannot even 
transfer the files because I am not able to come up with the suitable commands.

Is this an exercise in creating a client app/script to accomplish this?

My client wants to have on the client end have all the files transferred back 
to the different user directories after the back end has some data processing. 
The client side only sees what is on the server, and not anything from the 
Linux from my understanding.

It sounds to me like your problem is now about the authentication. By
default most linux distributions do not give apache a password. I
personally think using apache would be a bad idea. How about creating a
user on the linux box your trying to put the files on to make it's
primary group apache (make sure the group can write to the folder you
are putting the files in) and give it a password that is a random string
of 20 characters (http://www.goodpassword.com) that only your script knows.

Try testing to make sure you can ftp to the server using a normal ftp
client (ftp for the linux command line or http://filezilla-project.org/
is a good one if your using windows) using the account you created. Make
sure you can put files in the directory you will be with the script.

If this all works and your script using the new account is not, I'm sure
we can help you debug it further :). Good luck!

You are right, there is something terribly wrong with my authentication. I have 
added one user called test and gave it a fixed password. Since the information 
where I intend to extract from is a Linux machine, and the location where it is 
meant to copy to is the Windows server. I tested it using the SSH Shell from 
the Windows machine to make sure it is working. It does.

I have modified the script where it does the authentication to the following:

// set up basic connection
$ftp_server="192.168.10.63";
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die ("Failed to Connect");

// login with username and password
$ftp_user_name="somename";
$ftp_user_pass="somepass";
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass) or die 
("Failed to Login");

// 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";
}

When I executed the script, it now prompts me back "Failed" to Connect" as in 
the first die statement. I am confused because when I use the SSH with 
Filezilla or other SFTP clients, I used the same user and passwords here and 
have received no errors.

I don't know if I should put the user_name and user_pass from this file to the 
httpd.conf, though. Currently, this is not set.

Thanks in advance.

I have modified the script where it does the authentication to the
following:

// set up basic connection
$ftp_server="192.168.10.63";
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die ("Failed to Connect");

// login with username and password
$ftp_user_name="somename";

$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass) or die
("Failed to Login");

if (ftp_get($conn_id, $local_file, $server_file, FTP_BINARY)) {
echo "Successfully written to $local_file\n";
} else {

}

When I executed the script, it now prompts me back "Failed" to Connect" as

RE: [PHP] Copy Function Errors

2008-07-17 Thread Wei, Alice J.

Hi Alice...

I just caught/saw this thread. I'm asuming you haven't found/solved what you're 
trying to do.

So, What exactly are you trying to accomplish? What OS are you running on both 
the client/server machine? Are you trying to copy from a directory on one box, 
to a directory on another box? Is this a one time thing? Are the boxes on the 
same network (physically close together)? Are you able to login to the remote 
box from your initial server?

Let me know what you're looking to do, and I can probably get you going.

-regards...

  All I wanted to do is to copy the file that is sitting on a remote machine to 
have it copied it over to another remote machine. Since I put the code snippet 
below on the server that is supposed to accept the files, I would say I am 
"downloading" the file here from a remote server to a local server.

  It is weird, because I followed Robert's advice and cut out the http:// 
snippet in my ftp server address, and I have tried both the apache and root 
password of the actual log in of the FTP, which neither of them worked. Both of 
the servers have the firewall DNS set up properly, and in my PHP info page, it 
appears that my FTP is enabled.

Is there something else I have missed?

// define some variables
$local_file = "C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/test/$id/data.tar";
$server_file = "http://192.168.10.63/test/$id/data.tar";;

// set up basic connection
$ftp_server="192.168.10.63";
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);

// login with username and password
$ftp_user_name="root";
$ftp_user_pass="xx!";
$login_result = ftp_login($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";

Alice,

Here are some Wikipedia articles that should give you a good start on
understanding the fundamental differences between the two protocols you
are confusing with each other:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FTP
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP

HTTP itself does not intrinsically handle file uploads in a
server/client relationship. Web forms that include file uploads
generally have a handler function on the other end, and post files via a
form element.

FTP's main function is the transfer of files (hence [F]ile [T]ransfer
[P]rotocol), and is more in line with what you're trying to do here.

RE: [PHP] Copy Function Errors

2008-07-16 Thread Wei, Alice J.
Hi Alice...

I just caught/saw this thread. I'm asuming you haven't found/solved what you're 
trying to do.

So, What exactly are you trying to accomplish? What OS are you running on both 
the client/server machine? Are you trying to copy from a directory on one box, 
to a directory on another box? Is this a one time thing? Are the boxes on the 
same network (physically close together)? Are you able to login to the remote 
box from your initial server?

Let me know what you're looking to do, and I can probably get you going.

What I am trying to accomplish is something simple, which is to copy the files 
from one single directory, which is already tarred, and have it be copied to a 
remote server. I am guessing that it is never too difficult to untar it when I 
get it successfully copied to another server. Right now it appears to me that 
it keeps on going to the second loop that says it failed, probably because my 
password and user do not match? I have tried switching that to apache, which is 
what I set in my httpd.conf for user and group.

I was browsing through the articles Todd suggested, and the port number 1025 
kept popping up. I am not sure if I am supposed to open this port on my remote 
and my local machine. I do have ssh, which is port 22 open.

Thanks in advance.

Alice

-regards...

Shouldn't that be:

$ftp_server="192.168.10.63";

http:// indicates a protocol and I don't think ftp supports the protocol
prefix understood by browsers.

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="x";
$login_result = ftp_login($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

[PHP] Copy Function Errors

2008-07-16 Thread Wei, Alice J.
Hi,

I have a snippet of code here:

shell_exec("tar cvf /var/www/html/test/$id/data.tar 
/var/www/html/test/$id/data");

$file1="http:/www.mysite.com/test/$id/data.tar";
$file2="http://www.mysite2.com/test/$id/.tar";;

copy($file1,$file2);

I got the following error in the access log of the server:

[Wed Jul 16 15:45:57 2008] [error] PHP Warning:  
copy(http://www.mysite.com/test/145/data.tar) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: HTTP wrapper 
does not support writeable connections. in /var/www/html/beam_calculation.php 
on line 20

Is there something I could do here to allow my file be "copied" to the remote 
server?

Anything is appreciated.

Php doesn't do anything like this...unless you post a form. Try

RE: [PHP] copy function?

[snip]
I have a button which I want to add a function to, so that when it is
clicked, the data from one  will be copied to another


Which event handler of the button should I use and hoe should I
construct
the function?
[/snip]

Both textareas on the same page? Want to do the copy without making a
trip to the server? I think you want JavaScript for this.

That's Javascript, not PHP.

[PHP] copy function

2003-12-18 Thread Omar
Is there a way to copy a file from 1 server to a different one?
I have this code in a win 2k server, and i try to copy the file to a win NT
server:

if (is_file($file_att))
  if (copy($file_att,'\servername\folder\'.$file_name))
echo "succesful";
  else
echo "failure";

It gives me this warning:

Warning: Unable to create '\servername\folder\image.jpg': Invalid argument
in D:\Intranet\sitio\Documentos\copyf.php on line 161
failure

I need this to work on any computer of the network. What kind of permission
do I need so any computer can use this script?

Thanks for the help.

Hash: SHA1

look in httpd.conf to get the user name,
then chown the directory to that user

ex.

chown apache:apache ./dir/
chmod 755 ./dir/

and make sure that you change permissions to all
files that you write into the directory to be
read-write only (not executable),
chown 644 filename

and that you put newly uploaded files into a
directory *outside* the document root of your
webserver (so some random person cannot just
upload any random file to your server and have
immediate access to it)

You need to make sure that what ever user the webserver/php runs under has
permissions to read from the source folder/file and write permission for the
destination folder/file.

Common users for apache/php are "nobody" or "apache"

Hi guys,

I have a problem that's killin' me. As I'm not very good at Linux I don't
know how to set the properties of the folder pics to be able to use the copy
function. (If I'm right and the problem is not some else) Please help.
Here's the code:

if (file_exists($userfile)) {
copy("$userfile","pics/".$userfile);
} else {
echo "Nem sikerül a következõ file-t feltölteni:".$userfile;
}

thx

Hi guys,

I have a problem that's killin' me. As I'm not very good at Linux I don't know how to 
set the properties of the folder pics to be able to use the copy function. (If I'm 
right and the problem is not some else) Please help. Here's the code:

if (file_exists($userfile)) {
copy("$userfile","pics/".$userfile);
} else {
echo "Nem sikerül a következõ file-t feltölteni:".$userfile;
