Question

I have some code that is using the PHP cURL library to upload some files via FTP.

I’ve been told to switch the FTP mode from passive to active, but I can’t find how to do that – there doesn’t seem to be an option in the documentation relating to it. I’m not actually sure what mode it is currently using, or how I can view that.

Answer 1

The answer to this question is to use:

$curl = curl_init()
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPRT, true);

this will allow you to do Active ftp uploads.
