<?php

$success = 0;

$sftp = new COM("Chilkat.SFtp");

// Insert this code just before the method call that crashes or hangs.
$sftp->VerboseLogging = 1;
$sftp->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 . "\n";
    exit;
}
