Hi there everyone,

Can anyone see a problem with the below code? It scans an FTP directory and
adds the LAST item in that directory to the database (Being the latest item
added) - however, if the directory only has 1 file in it it WON'T add
anything, the system returns that the directory is empty and it's very
frustrating.

$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server2);
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name2, $ftp_user_pass2);

// check connection
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
die("FTP connection has failed !");
};

// Initiate passive mode
if (ftp_pasv($conn_id, true))
{ echo ""; }
else { echo "Could not initiated passive mode

"; }

// try to change the directory to somedir
if (ftp_chdir($conn_id, "$newdir2")) {
// echo "Current directory is now: " . ftp_pwd($conn_id) . "\n";

// get the file list for /
$array = ftp_rawlist($conn_id, "-t");

$newdata = $contents[0];

for ( $i = 1; $i < count($array); $i++ ) {

$current = $array[$i];
$structure[$i]['name'] = substr($current, 55, strlen($current) - 0);

$newdatab = $structure[$i][name];

}};

// close the connection
ftp_close($conn_id);

};

RE: Strange rawlist behaviour

$newdata = $contents[0];

for ( $i = 1; $i < count($array); $i++ ) {

$current = $array[$i];
$structure[$i]['name'] = substr($current, 55, strlen($current) - 0);

}


Should the array loop thru start at 0 (below)? Not 1 as you have the
starting value for $i (above)

$newdata = $contents[0];

for ( $i = 0; $i < count($array); $i++ ) {

$current = $array[$i];
$structure[$i]['name'] = substr($current, 55, strlen($current) - 0);

RE: Strange rawlist behaviour

I didn't read all your code, but this jumped out to me also as to Bastien

for ( $i = 1; $i < count($array); $i++ ) {

If you have 1 file, then you probably have "1 < 1" which does not execute
even once. I definitely suggest also "$i = 0;...".
