I am trying to get a server.cfg file from a FTP in a form on my website, using PHP. After this I want to edit the server.cfg file on the website, click 'submit' and reupload the edited file on the FTP. I did some research, but I still get some errors. I've managed to get the file in the form. But if I edit and save the form, I get errors. My PHP Code:

Code: [ Select ]
<?php

$config = array
(
'user' => 'Hunterr',
'pass' => '[PASSWORD]',
'domain'  => '[HOST]',
'file'   => '213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg',    # relative to 'domain'
);

if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$fp = fopen($config['file'],'w');
fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
fclose($fp);

$ftp = ftp_connect($config['domain']);
ftp_login($ftp,$config['user'],$config['pass']);
ftp_pasv($ftp,TRUE);
ftp_put($ftp,$config['file'],$config['file'],FTP_BINARY);
ftp_close($ftp);

}
?>

<form width="440" height="440" method="post" action="<?=( $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] )?>">
<textarea name="newd"><?=(    file_get_contents('ftp://'.$config['user'].':'.$config['pass'].'@'.$config['domain'].'/'.$co  nfig['file']) )?></textarea>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save">
</form>
  1. <?php
  3. $config = array
  4. (
  5. 'user' => 'Hunterr',
  6. 'pass' => '[PASSWORD]',
  7. 'domain'  => '[HOST]',
  8. 'file'   => '213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg',    # relative to 'domain'
  9. );
  11. if(isset($_POST['submit']))
  12. {
  13. $fp = fopen($config['file'],'w');
  14. fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
  15. fclose($fp);
  17. $ftp = ftp_connect($config['domain']);
  18. ftp_login($ftp,$config['user'],$config['pass']);
  19. ftp_pasv($ftp,TRUE);
  20. ftp_put($ftp,$config['file'],$config['file'],FTP_BINARY);
  21. ftp_close($ftp);
  23. }
  24. ?>
  26. <form width="440" height="440" method="post" action="<?=( $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] )?>">
  27. <textarea name="newd"><?=(    file_get_contents('ftp://'.$config['user'].':'.$config['pass'].'@'.$config['domain'].'/'.$co  nfig['file']) )?></textarea>
  28. <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save">
  29. </form>


Any idea's? Line 13 starts at: $fp = fopen($config['file'],'w'); so you know where the errors come from.

Errors:
Warning: fopen(213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [LINK] on line 13

Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in [LINK] on line 14

Thanks in advance

Is the file on the same server as the form? If it is why don't you just use fopen and the path to the file for example fopen("../etpro/server.cfg");. I'm not sure where the file it in relation to your web root.

Also look into seeing if your server allows fopen a lot of hosting providers block the fopen due to security issues.

Hello, thanks for the reply.

No, it is not on the same server. I have 2 FTP's 1 for the website and 1 for the server.cfg. The FTP from the server.cfg is not on a dedicated server of myself but I just hired a gameserver from YCN Hosting. So how will the path look like? $fp = fopen($config['ftp://ycn-hosting.[CANT-PUT-EXTENTION]/213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg'],'w'); ?

Since it is on a different server fopen will not work so the FTP would be your option.

also fopen will not work in this case
PHP Code: [ Select ]
$fp = fopen($config['file'],'w');
fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
fclose($fp);
 
  1. $fp = fopen($config['file'],'w');
  2. fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
  3. fclose($fp);
  4.  


What you can do instead is make a server.cfg and hold it on the server with the form until the file gets FTPed ... So something like This. you might have to adjust the paths.

PHP Code: [ Select ]
$fp = fopen('temp_server.cfg','w');
fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
fclose($fp);
 
$ftp = ftp_connect($config['domain']);
ftp_login($ftp,$config['user'],$config['pass']);
ftp_pasv($ftp,TRUE);
ftp_put($ftp,'etpro/server.cfg','temp_server.cfg',FTP_BINARY);
ftp_close($ftp);
 
  1. $fp = fopen('temp_server.cfg','w');
  2. fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
  3. fclose($fp);
  4.  
  5. $ftp = ftp_connect($config['domain']);
  6. ftp_login($ftp,$config['user'],$config['pass']);
  7. ftp_pasv($ftp,TRUE);
  8. ftp_put($ftp,'etpro/server.cfg','temp_server.cfg',FTP_BINARY);
  9. ftp_close($ftp);
  10.  



Are you passing a directory with the Host when trying to connect to the ftp? If so that could be causing your ftp connection issue

What do you mean with 'Are you passing a directory with the Host when trying to connect to the ftp?' (sorry I dont know much about this).

I tried your code but I am getting the same errors only the first one is different:

Warning: fopen(temp_server.cfg) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in [LINK] on line 13

OK the first thing what I mean is are you trying to connect with the host being like this ftp://ycn-hosting.yoursite.com/ or is it like ftp://ycn-hosting.com/yoursite if you could make a generic link that would help

Second the folder that contains your form doesn't have write permissions set.

Hi, it's the second one. ftp://ycn-hosting.[extention]/213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg is there complete path of the file. (Extention=com but I am not allowed to post links)

ftp_pasv($ftp,TRUE);
ftp_put($ftp,'213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg','temp_server.cfg',FTP_BINARY);
ftp_close($ftp);
  

  }

I dont get errors on line 13, but at 17 ($ftp = ftp_connect($config['domain']);)

Warning: ftp_put() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in [LINK] on line 20

Warning: ftp_close() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in [LINK] on line 21

I have set 777 on both ftp's for the files.

the error means it can't find the FTP server. Domain name doesn't exist, name resolution failed. which triggers all the other errors below.

In your domain i see your passing the port as well
'domain' => 'ycn-hosting.[EXTENSION]:21',

Try somthing like this
PHP Code: [ Select ]
    <?php
    $config = array
      (
      'user' => 'Hunterr',
      'pass' => '[PASS]',
      'domain'  => 'ycn-hosting.[EXTENSION]',
      'port'  => '21',
      'file'   => '213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg',    # relative to 'domain'
     );
    if(isset($_POST['submit']))
      {
        $fp = fopen('temp_server.cfg','w');
    fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
    fclose($fp);
 
    // Add the port here
    $ftp = ftp_connect($config['domain'], $config['port']);
   
    ftp_login($ftp,$config['user'],$config['pass']);
    ftp_pasv($ftp,TRUE);
    ftp_put($ftp,'213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg','temp_server.cfg',FTP_BINARY);
    ftp_close($ftp);
     
      }
    ?>
 
  1.     <?php
  2.     $config = array
  3.       (
  4.       'user' => 'Hunterr',
  5.       'pass' => '[PASS]',
  6.       'domain'  => 'ycn-hosting.[EXTENSION]',
  7.       'port'  => '21',
  8.       'file'   => '213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg',    # relative to 'domain'
  9.      );
  10.     if(isset($_POST['submit']))
  11.       {
  12.         $fp = fopen('temp_server.cfg','w');
  13.     fwrite($fp,stripslashes($_POST['newd']));
  14.     fclose($fp);
  15.  
  16.     // Add the port here
  17.     $ftp = ftp_connect($config['domain'], $config['port']);
  18.    
  19.     ftp_login($ftp,$config['user'],$config['pass']);
  20.     ftp_pasv($ftp,TRUE);
  21.     ftp_put($ftp,'213.108.31.167-27030/etpro/server.cfg','temp_server.cfg',FTP_BINARY);
  22.     ftp_close($ftp);
  23.      
  24.       }
  25.     ?>

im suprised i havent seen this sooner. BUT why are you trying to change the server.cfg

As a long time wolf player. I know that there are some hosts that are really picky over the server.cfg file due to you able to change the max players.

I thought et died along time ago.. heh
