#19050 [Opn->Fbk]: ftp_* functions vs. proftpd

ID: 19050 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: darklord@revai.hu -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: FTP related Operating System: Linux Debian Woody (2.4.18) PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip Some ftp problems were fixed recently. Please give it a shot. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-26 12:04:47] darklord@revai.hu It turned out to be ftp_* bug, sorry. So: To solve the error with ftp_get i've rewriten the code to use fopen with ftp:// filename. It's a workaround, not a FIX! To solve the error with ftp_nlist, i've used the code posted bellow (the one which retries the listing) I've no idea why has the buffer size change worked (65530->3000) but temporary it solved the problem (my first bug report), but then more calls were made to the reader function and the hanging began again. The proftpd developer team says that it's not their problem, I'll write them something nice ... And sorry for the misleading ... to all of you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-26 06:29:46] wez@php.net Is this a problem with fgets or is the problem with ftp_get? (there's a big difference!). Can you put these two lines before your fopen line: echo "Downloaded file from server\n"; flush(); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-26 04:02:54] darklord@revai.hu The -d 3 doesn't solve the problem with ftp_rawlist, but the following code works for it: $i=0; while (($a=ftp_rawlist($this->ftp_fd,$dir)) === false) { $i++; if ($i > 5) { die("Error"); } } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-26 03:33:35] darklord@revai.hu #13400 is a workaround for this bug, but I think proftp dev team should know about this thing ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-26 03:28:38] darklord@revai.hu I think this error is specific to proftpd becouse the script works fine on a wu-ftpd ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
