Append to Existing File on FTP Server

See more FTP Examples

Uploads a file to the FTP server. If the remote file (on the FTP server) does not already exist, it is created. Otherwise the uploaded file is appended to the remote file. C++

#include <CkFtp2.h>

    bool success = false;

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkFtp2 ftp;

    ftp.put_Hostname("ftp.myftpserver.com");
    ftp.put_Username("myUsername");
    ftp.put_Password("myPassword");

    // Connect to the FTP server.
    success = ftp.ConnectOnly();
    if (success != true) {
        std::cout << ftp.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";

    // Upload to the FTP server, creating the file if it does not yet exist
    // on the FTP server, or appending to the remote file if it already exists.
    success = ftp.AppendFile(localFilePath,remoteFilename);
