ftp_put(), move_uploaded_file() problem

Hello, I have a site that allows developers to upload current modules to the webserver. It has been requested that when this is done, I also ftp a backup copy to a remote server. Something is wrong here. The file upload code works. The back ftp code works,only if I comment out the move_uploaded_file() function. I can not get them both to work. After the move_uploaded_file() function moves the file to the webserver, the ftp_put() fails, but if I comment out the move_uploaded_file(), the ftp_put() works. Can anyone help me with this? I have posted this on other forums and working on this for a couple of weeks now. 1. I am uploading the module to the webserver. 2. Then in the next step want to ftp same module to backup server. So Step 1 Code:

$path    = "../modules"; 
if (!is_dir($path))   mkdir($path,0700);             if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['srcfile']['tmp_name'], $path."/".strtolower(trim($_FILES['srcfile']['name'])))) 

Which works. THis uploads the module to the webserver to the set location then Step 2 Code: $ftp = ftp_connect('server goes here');

         // login with username and password if (ftp_login($ftp, 'username', 'password'))   {   ftp_pasv ( $ftp, true );                                       if (ftp_put($ftp, "public_html/temp/" . $_FILES['srcfile']['name'], $_FILES['srcfile']['tmp_name'], FTP_BINARY))      {      $message = "File uploaded";      }      else      {      die("Could not upload file");      }   } else   {   die("Could not login to FTP account");   }             if (!empty($message))   {   echo $message;   }          // close the FTP stream ftp_close($ftp); 

The only way this second FTP code works is if I comment out the first upload code, Code:

$path    = "../modules"; 
if (!is_dir($path))   mkdir($path,0700);             //if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['srcfile']['tmp_name'], $path."/".strtolower(trim($_FILES['srcfile']['name'])))) 

Can anyone tell me if the problem is a ftp stream being left open and that is why I can not get the second portion of my code to work? Is there a way to get both of these to work together? I need not only to be able to upload to the webserver but ftp a backup copy to the remote server as well. Thank you for any help.
