FTP video upload from form

**Jas** · 09-18-2007, 11:48 PM

I know your all getting sick of my FTP questions. . . I'm sick of askin' 'em. But my script isn't working. . . It creates the file, but puts no information in it (file size is always 0 bytes). Any help would be great.

Code:

if ($_POST['Submit'] == 'Submit'){
	$conn_id = ftp_connect("localhost") or die("Couldn't connect");
	$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, "????", "??????") or die("ERROR IN FTP CONNECTION");
	
	@ftp_mkdir($conn_id, './Information/Uploads/');
	
		$path2  = './Uploads/';
		$path = './Information/Uploads/';

	$o_name = basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
	$path .= $o_name;
	$path2 .= $o_name;

	$temp = tmpfile();
	
	if(ftp_fput($conn_id, $path, $temp, FTP_ASCII)){
		print '<h1>File "'.$o_name.'" has been uploaded.</h1><h2>We thank you for your donation to this website, and look forward to seeing it accessed by our users.</h2>';

	
			$path_parts = pathinfo($path);	
		$title 		= $_POST['title'];
		$filetype 	= $path_parts['extension'];
		$style 		= $_POST['style'];
		$disc		= $_POST['discription'];
		$sugrank 	= $_POST['suggestedrank'];
		$provider	= $_SESSION['username'];
		$notes		= $_POST['notes'];
		$copyright	= $_POST['copyright'];
		
		MySQL_Query("INSERT INTO files VALUES(
			NULL,
			'$path2',
			'$title',
			'$filetype',
			'$style',
			'$disc',
			'$sugrank',
			'$provider',
			'$notes',
			'$copyright'
		)");
	} else {
		print "Error Uploading File:<br>$o_name";
	}
	MySQL_Close($Connection);
	ftp_close($conn_id);
}

Or I will take an alternate script if that is easier for you guys. . . Either way. . .

I don't see any function to put in the file contents.

After quickly scanning your code I decided to see wat php.net says about using "ftp_fput"
here is the link to that page
http://www.php.net/manual/ro/function.ftp-fput.php

there is an example on it:

PHP Code:


<?php



// open some file for reading

$file = 'somefile.txt';

$fp = fopen($file, 'r');



// set up basic connection

$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);



// login with username and password

$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);



// try to upload $file

if (ftp_fput($conn_id, $file, $fp, FTP_ASCII)) {

    echo "Successfully uploaded $file\n";

} else {

    echo "There was a problem while uploading $file\n";

}



// close the connection and the file handler

ftp_close($conn_id);

fclose($fp);



?>

the main difference i see here is that the code above uses fopen and yours does not. you are using tmpfile which to me looks like it only makes a temporary file (which when created will be blank). So My GUESS is that instead of tmpfile() you should be using fopen on that line and opening the file you are trying to use. again, that is just a guess.

Try this it should work, it also gives you numbers on the side to and two save buttons and refresh just in case something goes wrongs....

Code:

<?php
$loadcontent = "YUOR FILE HERE!!!!.html"; 
    if($save_file) { 
        $savecontent = stripslashes($savecontent); 
        $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "w"); 
        if ($fp) { 
            fwrite($fp, $savecontent); 
            fclose($fp);
print '<a href='.$_SERVER[PHP_SELF].'>Refresh</a>'; 
print "<html><head><META http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]\"></head><body>"; 
 
} 
} 
    $fp = @fopen($loadcontent, "r"); 
        $loadcontent = fread($fp, filesize($loadcontent)); 
$lines = explode("\n", $loadcontent);
$count = count($lines);
        $loadcontent = htmlspecialchars($loadcontent); 
        fclose($fp); 
for ($a = 1; $a < $count+1; $a++) {
$line .= "$a\n";
}
?> 
<form method=post action="<?=$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]?>"> 
<input type="submit" name="save_file" value="Save">    
<table width="100%" valign="top" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1">
  <tr>
    <td width="3%" align="right" valign="top"><pre style="text-align: right; padding: 4px; overflow: auto; border: 0px groove; font-size: 12px" name="lines" cols="4" rows="<?=$count+3;?>"><?=$line;?></pre></td>
    <td width="97%" align="left" valign="top"><textarea style="text-align: left; padding: 0px; overflow: auto; border: 3px groove; font-size: 12px" name="savecontent" cols="150" rows="<?=$count;?>" wrap="OFF"><?=$loadcontent?></textarea></td>
  </tr>
</table>
 
<br> 
<input type="submit" name="save_file" value="Save">    
</form>

I recommend not to use php if your letting other people use this, saftey reasons.. and hacking..

**Jas** · 09-28-2007, 05:55 PM

???? I'm confused

Sorry guys, but I thought I know more about FTP-- evidently not, lol. Can I get a bit more info on what's going on with your script isanemonkey ?

**insanemonkey** · 10-01-2007, 08:57 AM

sorry... my script is like yours but it right now only edits the information and saves it..

I am currently working on how to upload, and make a new page and edit there and now..

but as of now this is what I am using for every page that i want

i don't know if this is what you are looking for but I have it up so you can test it out...

http://www.xudas.com/test/index.html
http://www.xudas.com/test/edit.php

goto index to see before look then goto edit and write something(html only) and save then goto the index.html page and see...

but any questions let me know...

oh and your site sweet n treats its pretty good.. the layout is kinda good. but not eye catching.... but AWESOME!!!

**Jas** · 10-02-2007, 07:02 PM

I don't think that is what I am looking for

I need a way to let users upload a file to the server, such as jpg's and mpeg's and pdf's and what-not. Any ideas? Can I fix the script at the start of this thread?

What do I do to insert the contents into the file?

Thanks for the input. Any suggestions? The owners wanted it "simple," so I am at a loss (The original draft was better, but they didn't like it

). (The other website that I am working on now--my website--is really starting to pop

)

**insanemonkey** · 10-02-2007, 08:59 PM

so your looking for a script that will just upload images or what not... why didnt you say that.. you don't use fopen and script like that for uploading...

welll here is a upload script... I like this one the most since it tells the person the link of the file is at....

PHP Code:


<?php



  error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); // Show all major errors.



  // Check to see if the button has been pressed

  if (!empty($_REQUEST['sendForm']))

  {

    // Assign the name to a variable

    $name = $_FILES['uploaded_file']['name'];

    // Assign the tmp_name to a variable

    $tmp_name = $_FILES['uploaded_file']['tmp_name'];

    // Assign the error to a variable

    $error = $_FILES['uploaded_file']['error'];

    // Assign the size to a variable

    $size = $_FILES['uploaded_file']['size'];

    // No trailing slash

    $uploadFilesTo = 'LOCATION TO YOUR UPLOADED FILES';

    // Create safe filename

    $name = ereg_replace('[^A-Za-z0-9.]', '-', $name);

    // Disallowed file extensions

    //what files you don't want upoad... leave this alone and you should be fine but you could add more

    $naughtyFileExtension = array("php", "php3", "asp", "inc", "txt", "wma", "mov", "js", "exe", "jsp", "map", "obj", " ", "", "html", "mp3", "mpu", "wav", "cur", "ani");    // Returns an array that includes the extension

    $fileInfo = pathinfo($name);

    // Check extension

    if (!in_array($fileInfo['extension'], $naughtyFileExtension))

    {

      // Get filename

      $name = getNonExistingFilename($uploadFilesTo, $name);

      // Upload the file

      if (move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, $uploadFilesTo.'/'.$name))

      {

          // Show success message

          echo '<center><p>File uploaded to http://www.yoursite.com/'.$uploadFilesTo.'/'.$name.'</p></center>';

      }

      else

      {

          // Show failure message

          echo '<center><p>File failed to upload to /'.$name.'</p></center>';

      }

    }

    else

    {

        // Bad File type

        echo '<center><p>The file uses an extension we don\'t allow.</p></center>';

    }

  }

 

  // Functions do not need to be inline with the rest of the code

  function getNonExistingFilename($uploadFilesTo, $name)

  {

      if (!file_exists($uploadFilesTo . '/' . $name))

          return $name;

     

      return getNonExistingFilename($uploadFilesTo, rand(100, 200) . '_' . $name);

  }

?>

<table bgcolor="gray" border="1"><tr>

<tr><td>

<br>



<form action="" method="post"    enctype="multipart/form-data">

  <input type="file" name="uploaded_file"><br>

  <input type="submit" name="sendForm" value="Upload Image">

</form>



</td></tr>

</table>

now just fool around with the script.... but you have to edit some of the things though.. any question let me know

**Jas** · 10-07-2007, 07:09 PM

That is well commented, but, um, it also has to be for videos. . . which would require FTP (That's not FTP, is it?).
I do thank you for the script though. There are several parts that I can use, like blocking file types and fixing the filenames (which I never thought of).
