I have successfully uploaded files over ftp, but I now need to do via SFTP. I can successfully connect to the remote server, create a file and write to it, but I am unable to upload an existing file from my local server to the remote server. Is ftp_put not firing with an sftp connection?
My code used to write a file :
//Send file via sftp to server
$strServer = "*****";
$strServerPort = "****";
$strServerUsername = "*****";
$strServerPassword = "*****";
$csv_filename = "Test_File.csv";
//connect to server
$resConnection = ssh2_connect($strServer, $strServerPort);
if(ssh2_auth_password($resConnection, $strServerUsername, $strServerPassword)){
//Initialize SFTP subsystem
echo "connected";
$resSFTP = ssh2_sftp($resConnection);
$resFile = fopen("ssh2.sftp://{$resSFTP}/".$csv_filename, 'w');
fwrite($resFile, "Testing");
fclose($resFile);
}else{
echo "Unable to authenticate on server";
}
Has anyone had any success in grabbing a local file and uploading via a method such as above with sftp? An example would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
With the method above (involving sftp) you can use stream_copy_to_stream:
$resFile = fopen("ssh2.sftp://{$resSFTP}/".$csv_filename, 'w');
$srcFile = fopen("/home/myusername/".$csv_filename, 'r');
$writtenBytes = stream_copy_to_stream($srcFile, $resFile);
fclose($resFile);
fclose($srcFile);
You can also try using ssh2_scp_send
