SFTP Debug Log File Path

See more SFTP Examples

Demonstrates how to use the DebugLogFilePath property to get information if a Chilkat method crashes or hangs. Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

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

# Insert this code just before the method call that crashes or hangs.
$sftp->put_VerboseLogging(1);
$sftp->put_DebugLogFilePath("/some/file/path/sftp_debug_log.txt");

# Make the call that crashes or hangs,
# for example, if the method is DownloadFileByName:

$remoteFilePath = "...";
$localFilePath = "...";
$success = $sftp->DownloadFileByName($remoteFilePath,$localFilePath);

# Note: If the method returns control to your application code, then it did not crash within Chilkat.
# The DebugLogFilePath property causes all information that would be recorded in the LastErrorText to be emitted to the
# log file (with immediate file write flushing, i.e. no buffering).  Thus, in a crash situation,
# the log file will contain information up to the point of the crash.

if ($success == 0) {
    print $sftp->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}
