I have been playing around with a few php scripts trying to first at least get the php file to connect to the ftp on my distributors file and THEN i would like it to save on my file. I was going to save this as a cron to run this script daily. I can't get it to connect to the distributors ftp. Their ftp access is ftp.aphrodite.WEBSITE.net The exact location of the file is ftp.aphrodite.WEBSITE.net/exporting/xml/products.xml I can acces it with filezilla and my browser. This is a different language to me. Any help would be great!
<?php
$conn_id = ftp_connect("ftp.aphrodite.WEBSITE.net/exporting/xml/products.xml");
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, "USERNAME", "PASSWORD");
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
echo "FTP connection has failed!";
exit;
} else {
echo "Connected";
}
// get the file
$local = fopen("products.xml","w");
$result = ftp_fget($conn_id, $local,"httpdocs/products.xml", FTP_BINARY);
// check upload status
if (!$result) {
echo "FTP download has failed!";
} else {
echo "Downloaded";
}
// close the FTP stream
ftp_close($conn_id);
?>
If I do not use the full url to the ftp file I do not get a login when using a browser.
