(PHP ActiveX) Using the FTP Session Log

The Chilkat FTP component can keep a session log if the KeepSessionLog property is turned on. This is helpful in debugging problems. Chilkat support will usually ask for a session log when working to resolve your problem, because it contains a log of the exact commands sent to the FTP server, and the exact responses received.

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

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Ftp2')

// Set the KeepSessionLog property in order to keep a session log.
// The session log will continuously grow in memory.  The
// ClearSessionLog method may be called to clear it.  The session
// logging may be turned on/off at any point.

    print $ftp->LastErrorText . "\n";

// To clear the SessionLog at any point, call ClearSessionLog:
// call ftp.ClearSessionLog();

// Append moreHamlet.txt to hamlet.txt on the FTP server.
