Description: ------------ I have a list of directories with a series of files in each that I want to retrieve. Automatic retrieval with $ftp->getRecursive() hangs after 3 directories. For a strange reason it cannot retrieve a file (that means it is created in the destination directory but it remains with 0 size). For all the subsequent directories I get this message "Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /usr/lib/php/FTP.php on line 1467". It retrieves then no files though it creates if needed the directories. I have tested with all the versions from 1.2, 1.3b1, 1.3b2. Reproduce code: --------------- dump($ftp->cd('/www/praktijken'), 'FTP::cd()'); $dirs = $ftp->ls(null, NET_FTP_DIRS_ONLY); for ($i=0;$i<count($dirs);$i++){ $dirnaam = $dirs[$i][name]; print $dirnaam; if (!is_dir("/www/praktijken/$dirnaam")) { umask(0); mkdir ("/www/praktijken/$dirnaam", 0755); } $ftp->getRecursive("/www/praktijken/$dirnaam/" , "/www/praktijken/$dirnaam/", true, FTP_BINARY); } Expected result: ---------------- Retrieve all files in the corresponding directories

Please provide some additional information. I need to know, what type of FTP server you are connected to (OS, server,...), what your directory structure looks like (try $ftp->ls(NET_FTP_RAWLIST)) and if the ftp_nb_* functions are available on your PHP running machine. A testing account with your specific directories would be perfect for me to reproduce your situation.

The server side: ProFTPd version 1.29 on Debian Linux 3.0 --enable-ftp on client side activated (also tested with same results with Mandrake 9.1 and PHP 4.3.1). The list of directories is the following.

But about then it is over. After it hangs at a file, it follows a regular timeout from the ftp server within few minutes. I cannot give a test account at the moment it is a production environment.

Did you try to raise the standard timout for the script and the FTP function? This can be achived by "set_time_limit(0);" in the main code and a e.g. "$ftp->setTimeout(10000);" after the initialization of your Net_FTP object.

I just tested it. It looks like it has nothing to do with the problem. It stalls at a file and after X minutes it does a timeout. The problem is the stalling. This happens in a period of 10-20 seconds (the one it takes to retrieve some 20 <1k files). Is there any way to overcome the stalling? Or any other ideas? Thanks.

In my eyes it seems to be a problem with the ftp_* functions themself. Did you try to reproduce the error with using a selfmade script and the ftp_* functions?
