(PHP Extension) 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.

<?php

// The version number (9_5_0) should match version of the Chilkat extension used, omitting the micro-version number.
// For example, if using Chilkat v9.5.0.48, then include as shown here:
include("chilkat_9_5_0.php");

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

$ftp = new CkFtp2();

$ftp->put_Hostname('ftp.example.com');
$ftp->put_Username('login');
$ftp->put_Password('password');

// 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.

// Connect and login to the FTP server.

// Change to the remote directory where the existing file is located.
$success = $ftp->ChangeRemoteDir('junk');
if ($success != true) {
    print $ftp->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;

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

// Append moreHamlet.txt to hamlet.txt on the FTP server.
$localFilename = 'moreHamlet.txt';

// Display the entire session log:
print $ftp->sessionLog() . "\n";
