Cockpit Error .. It appears to work fine now. The problem was that I was connecting to the FTP service on the local by giving it a fully qualified DNS name. The localhost sits behind a NAT firewall. Obviously, Apache/PHP connecting to FTP on the same machine got somehow messed up. When using the local machine name, or localhost, the problem resolved itself. Then I tried to connect to one of my FTP servers running on a different host OUTSIDE the local domain, and Bingo .. It just wokred fine. Hope this helps someone. PHP Rocks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-29 11:06:22] willy@drmagu.com Just downloaded & installed php 4.3.0 win32. Neither rawlost or nlist work! The system appears to hang for a while, and then returns nothing. My setup Server OS Win2k Prof Web Server: Apache 1.3.20 ftp Service: War FTP 1.65 Tested both local and remote. Neither works. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-30 02:57:56] alex.dow@psikon.com After 20 minutes scratching my head, I finally downloaded the latest snapshot of PHP, which upgraded me from v4.2.3 to v4.3.0dev, the problem was resolved. I suggest all head to http://snaps.php.net and upgrade... Alex. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
