(PHP Extension) FTP Set Remote File Date/Time Equal to Local File's Last-Modified Date/Time

Demonstrates how to set a remote file's date/time to be equal to a local file's date/time.

Important: Not all FTP servers support the ability to set a file's date/time.

Note: This example includes a new file access method introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.66.

Chilkat PHP Downloads PHP Extension for Windows, Linux, MacOS, Alpine Linux, Solaris

<?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 assumes Chilkat Ftp2 to have been previously unlocked.
// See Unlock Ftp2 for sample code.

$ftp = new CkFtp2();

$ftp->put_Hostname('www.authtls-ftps-server.com');
$ftp->put_Username('FTP_LOGIN');
$ftp->put_Password('FTP_PASSWORD');
$ftp->put_AuthTls(true);
$ftp->put_Port(21);

// Connect to the FTP server using explicit TLS (AUTH TLS).
$success = $ftp->ConnectOnly();
if ($success != true) {
    print $ftp->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;

// Authenticate.
$success = $ftp->LoginAfterConnectOnly();
if ($success != true) {
    print $ftp->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;

// We're going to get the last-mod date/time for the local file
// "qa_data/hamlet.xml", and then set the remote "hamlet.xml" to this date/time.
$fac = new CkFileAccess();
// dt is a CkDateTime
$dt = $fac->GetLastModified('qa_data/hamlet.xml');
if ($fac->get_LastMethodSuccess() != true) {
    print $fac->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;

$success = $ftp->SetRemoteFileDt($dt,'hamlet.xml');
if ($success != true) {
    print $ftp->lastErrorText() . "\n";

    exit;
}

$ftp->Disconnect();

print 'Success.' . "\n";
