ftp_put( ) help

[Anon]

i tried searching through the posts and php.net for a resolution to my quandry.

i keep getting the following error:
Warning: "error opening C:\helloWorld.txt in /path_to_script/ftpConnect.php"

here's my ftp_put() call:
ftp_put($myFtpConnection, $remote_location, $source, FTP_ASCII)

now my connection and login is working fine, when i check to see if my source file exists it keeps telling me it isn't. the properties aren't the problem.

any help would be great thanks.

Have you tried it by hand using an ftp client? Maybe your ftp server is not cooperating.

[Anon]

this is actually part of a larger project to allow uploading of something and then will create an entry in a database.

so doing uploads by using client software would add an extra step to my system.

any other solution perhaps?

i think what he means is just test to see if you can upload the file using an ftp client, just to see if the ftp server is working correctly.

oh in that case. using the client works fine. just the ftp_put() says it can't open it.
