FtpPutFile problem
-
Hi all. I've tried to use this but it doesnt seem to work. One time i tried it and it worked very well. The second time i tried it it didnt work. What it does is it connects well and sends the file. But problem is that there is nothing in the text file. Here is what i have so far.
#include #include #include using namespace std; void FileSubmit() { char *user="user"; char *pass="password"; char *ftpserver="ftp.server.com"; HINTERNET hInternet; HINTERNET hFtpSession; hInternet = InternetOpen(NULL,INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_DIRECT,NULL,NULL,0); hFtpSession = InternetConnect(hInternet,ftpserver , INTERNET_DEFAULT_FTP_PORT, user, pass, INTERNET_SERVICE_FTP, 0, 0); if(FtpPutFile(hFtpSession, "C:\\test.txt", "file.txt", FTP_TRANSFER_TYPE_ASCII, 0) == TRUE){ cout << "File Sent! " << endl; Sleep(1000); InternetCloseHandle(hFtpSession); InternetCloseHandle(hInternet); } else{ cout << "File didnt send " << endl; } } int main(){ FileSubmit(); return 0; }I know text files need to be sent in ASCII mode so i switched to that and it still didnt work. It uploads the file but the file is empty. Whats going on??? Thanx in advance! -

So is the source file empty?

Yes, as in 0 bytes. And how do i open it in passive mode? I didnt see an option for it.

Use
INTERNET_FLAG_PASSIVEflag fordwFlagsparameter.Regards, Vijay. God may not give us what we 'want', but he surely gives us what we 'need'.

Well that seemed to do the trick. However i ran Wireshark and it doesnt exactly request PASV before sending. *shrugs* We dont explain why it works that way. It just works! Thanx for your replies, i've been at it for ages and now i can finally move on to the next option task :)

So if the source file is
0bytes and the destination file is0bytes, what's the problem?

Sorry i read that wrong. The file on my machine was 1kb. And before i added the INTERNET_FLAG_PASSIVE argument it would upload the file, but on the ftp server it would be 0KB when the original file was 1kb
