ftp_nget() suddenly returning false.

[Xodus989]

I've been working on a script to move files from one ftp server to the server our website is on.

The script was working earlier but it wasn't working correctly with the re-naming of the files, so I fixed that, but now I get an error: Invalid argument for foreach() statement. I know why the arg is invalid, $file = ftp_nlist() is returning a bool false instead of the array it should. Now, this WAS working earlier, and I didn't change anything outside of the foreach loop. So I don't know what's up.

Here's the code, I'm stuped:

<?php

/**

*/

$ftp_server = "69.65.32.219";
$ftp_user_name = "2574";
$ftp_user_pass = "*****";
$remoteSSPath = "/";

$destination_file = "./Unsorted/";

// 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);

// check connection
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result))
{
    echo "FTP connection has failed!";
    echo "Attempted to connect to $ftp_server for user $ftp_user_name";
    exit;
}
else
{
    echo "Connected to $ftp_server, for user $ftp_user_name";
}

$file = ftp_nlist($conn_id, $remoteSSPath);

echo "<br>";

var_dump($file);

foreach ($file as $files)
{
    $ispng = false;
    $findMe = "png";
    $ispng = strpos($files, $findMe);
    $newName = rand(1, 1000000);
    $newName .= ".png";
    if ($ispng)
    {

    ftp_rename($conn_id, $files, $newName);

    $get = ftp_get($conn_id, $destination_file . $newName, $newName, FTP_BINARY);

    if (!$get)
    {
        echo "FTP download has failed downloading: $newName!<br>";
    }
    else
    {
        echo "Downloaded $files to $destination_file <br>";
        echo "Deleting $files:<br>";

        if (ftp_delete($conn_id, $newName))
        {
            echo "$newName Deleted! <br>";
        }
        else
            echo "Error deleting file!";
    }
}
else
{
    echo "$files is not a .png file! - Not downloading <br>";
    echo "Deleting $files:<br>";
    if (ftp_delete($conn_id, $files))
    {
        echo "$files Deleted! <br>";
    }
    else
        echo "Error deleting file!";

}
}

ftp_close($conn_id);
echo "<br>Closed FTP Session<br>";
?>

Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks,
Xodus

My guess would be something to do with the "/" directory, which you assign to $remoteSSPath. Perhaps someone has tightened up security on the target host, disallowing FTP access to the root directory?
