Folder exists on FTP

slick101

hey guys

i wrote this code which works fine.

f(ftp_size($ftp, 'test') != -1)
                ftp_chdir($ftp, 'test');
             else{
                // create the file
                ftp_mkdir($ftp, 'test');
                ftp_chmod($ftp, 0755, 'test');
                ftp_chdir($ftp, 'test');
   }

but im using it on connecting to another ftp basically setup same way.

But i check on if folder exist but i always get -1 even though the folder is there.

Its killing me cause it works on connecting to another ftp.

Any ideas?

If you are saying that on one FTP server it fuctions but on another it works, it might be that the server doesnt support this call alike the php manual states. If this was the case it would return -1.

what is best way on checking on a filesize when going through a ftp directory then if not all servers support it?

okay so i do this instead,

if(!ftp_chdir($ftp, 'test')){
//create file
}else{
}

basically at the moment my dilemma is that i keep gettin warnings

Warning: filesize() [function.filesize]: stat failed for 9916416 in folder_path

Warning: ftp_chdir() [function.ftp-chdir]: Access not allowed. (but still changes directories)

even if i do a chmod or chdir. any idea? im basically getting rid of everything by putting @ infront of hte function.
