Question

I want to create a CSV file from the SQL query results. Till now i have been using the local storage to store the file.
But now i want to open a ftp connection and open the file and write my chnages.

My code is as follow:

$ftp_server = "subdomain.domain.com";
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server) or die("Couldn't connect to $ftp_server");
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, 'uN@m3', '$pWd00');

$filename = 'ftp://uN@m3:$[e-mail]:21/db_user_export_'.time().'.csv';       //Change this to FTP URL of the server where File is going to be placed

function populateCSVforRightNowDatabase(){

global $database, $filename, $queryInterval, $logger;
/*My Query*/

if($resultSet->load()) {

    // Create or Overwrite file
    $handle = fopen($filename, 'w+');

    // Write the spreadsheet column titles / labels
    fputcsv($handle, array( /*columns*/));

    foreach($resultSet as $result) {
        fputcsv($handle, array(/*Results*/));
    }
} else {
        $message = "Load Error: " . $resultSet->getLoadError();
        $logger->error($message);
}
// Finish writing the csv
fclose($handle);

}

fopen supports multiple read/write modes. However, the mode you selected, w+, is read/write mode, which is not supported by FTP. Barring other errors, using w or a instead should work.
