Files not uploading to remote server with Net_SFTP

Question

I have the following class for uploading files in a directory, however, the first directory that should be created is getting set up as \'File\' rather then a \'File Folder\'. B

Answer 1

It works for me. I tried $sftp->mkdir('Test folder') and $sftp->mkdir('./Test folder/Another folder'). The directories that were created were created as expected.

One thing to keep in mind... DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR is probably not the best thing to use in this instance. On Windows, for example, DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR is \ - not /. This is an issue because the SFTP specs say that directories are to be represented with / - not . Quoting draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-02:

This protocol represents file names as strings. File names are assumed to use the slash ('/') character as a directory separator.

I guess to have further insight a copy of the SFTP logs would be helpful. Maybe just provide the SFTP logs of a mkdir operation. You can get the SFTP logs by doing define('NET_SFTP_LOGGING', 2) at the top and then doing echo $sftp->getSFTPLog() after the mkdir.
