SFTP Create Directory

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to create a new directory on the remote SFTP server. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

# Important: It is helpful to send the contents of the
# sftp.LastErrorText property when requesting support.

$sftp = chilkat::CkSFtp->new();

# Set some timeouts, in milliseconds:
$sftp->put_ConnectTimeoutMs(15000);
$sftp->put_IdleTimeoutMs(15000);

# Connect to the SSH server.  
$success = $sftp->Connect("sftp.example.com",22);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $sftp->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Authenticate with the SSH server.  Chilkat SFTP supports
# both password-based authenication as well as public-key
# authentication.  This example uses password authenication.
$success = $sftp->AuthenticatePw("myLogin","myPassword");
if ($success != 1) {
    print $sftp->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# After authenticating, the SFTP subsystem must be initialized:
$success = $sftp->InitializeSftp();
if ($success != 1) {
    print $sftp->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Create a new directory:
$success = $sftp->CreateDir("myNewDir");
if ($success != 1) {
    print $sftp->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print "Success." . "\r\n";
