RE: [PHP] How to accept file through http from curl c program??

Thanks Chris but I don't think that is the issue as the file is being
created and the script is running through.

It's just that $_FILES contains no data which it should?? I is confused as
they say because it works perfectly using the browser ...

At a first glance:

$fp=fopen(brianLog1, "w+");

brianlog1 should either be in quotes if that's the name of the file and the
file doesn't have an extension. Or maybe it's a variable in which case
you'll need to put the $ in front of it..

Hope that helps

Regards

Chris

Hi there,

Hopefully someone can shed some light for us on this.

We have a client who is sending us a file through a C program which uses
Curl. At our end we have a php script to accept the file passed through the
form. This php script works fine using a browser however, it does not pick
up what the C program sends to us.

Our php is below, $_FILES contains zilch!! Any ideas?:

foreach( $_FILES as $varname => $fileinfo ){
$filename = $fileinfo["name"];
$tmpname = $fileinfo["tmp_name"];
}

$uploaddir = '/usr/local/nameofdir/;
$uploadfile = $uploaddir. $_FILES['filename']['name'];

if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['filename']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {

$fp=fopen(brianLog1, "w+");
$string = "HTTPS POST of Purchase Order SUCCESSFUL.************ File
Name: ".$_FILE['filename']['name']."\n";
fwrite($fp, $string);
}
else {
$fp=fopen(brianLog2, "w+");
$string = "HTTPS POST Failed !************* File Name:
".$_FILES['filename']['name']."\nTmp Name: "
..$_FILES['filename']['tmp_name'];
fwrite($fp, $string);

}
?>

I don't really know much about Curl, but what it -sounds- like is that Curl
isn't sending the proper headers/MIME types to the PHP script and PHP isn't
putting the input into the $_FILES array. You might want to look in your
$_GET or $_POST array for existance of the file to see if it's being sent
there.

Good luck.

Thanks Mike,

I set the content type to be text/xml in the C program. Just don't
understand it at all. There appears to be no reason why it's not working.

Thanks for your help so far, any more suggestions?

Brian.
