I am trying to use your class to send a file. After some digging I set the PostFiles array as follows:

$arguments["PostFiles"]= array('first'=>array('FileName'=>'c:\archive.zip','Name'=>'archive.zip'));

The request gets to the server but the script does not seem to have any entries in the $_FILES array to move the downloaded file.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

This is hard to tell without seeing exactly what you are doing.

Can you please provide an example script that demonstrates what you are doing and is not working, and maybe a test site URL if the site you are posting is under your control?

I just updated your test script. The post gets to my internal server but as I mentioned the data is not saved or triggered by PHP
Ths client side script is first and after I have placed the server side script. Thanks for the reply I hope it helps.
as follows:

// This is the client side
?php

thought this would help. Here the debug info from the test program.
I am getting a reply from the script with an OK as well as the 0 I send back but again the $_Files array is empty

I tried this example and it works well as expected.

Maybe if you could put your script in a public server that I can access, then I can try and see what you get.

Unfornutely I do not access to a public server.
But here is what I have found so far.
I wrote a simple script to send a file.

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="sendfile.php" method="POST">

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" />

Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" />
<input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>

<?php

if(is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']))
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], "c:\Newfiles.zip");

}

?>

When I use this script all works as expected.

Using your class it seems that the data of the file is written as content to the script and not as a file downloadable by the web server.
I know this because using $_ENV['CONTENT_LENGTH'] using you class has the file data as well as header info etc.
While using the above script the $_ENV['CONTENT_LENGTH'] is 0 and the $_FILES contains the file info for the downloaded file.
If your class works where by it is necessary to get the file data as content that is fine but can you let me know if that is the intent or am I doing something wrong.
Thanks...

I would really like PHP to handle the file download vs. gettng it a content.

One other thing I forgot to mention. The use of this script is really to get a file from 1 server to another. I am not sure if this is the best way.
Any suggestions would be greatlt appreciated.

Manuel Lemos - 2005-12-07 20:31:05 - In reply to message 6 from John Czenze

This suggests that the problem is that your PHP environment does not allow files as large as you want to send unless the MAX_FILE_SIZE parameter is passed.

In that case you only need to add something like this to the upload script as demonstrated in the test_http_post.php example.

$arguments["PostValues"]=array(
"MAX_FILE_SIZE"=>"30000"
);

John Czenze - 2005-12-07 21:16:20 - In reply to message 8 from Manuel Lemos

I have used your test_http_post.php with the same results. Again the $_FILES varaible is empty while the $_ENV['CONTENT_LENGTH'] is the length of the data passed. So again all dat is passed as content instead as a file. Since I am using your test script. The only change I made is the file name. I can not understand what I amy be doing wrong.
Below is the result from you script with debugging:

I realized that MAX_UPLOAD_FILE value must be sent before any files being uploaded.

I just uploaded a fixed version of the class that sends data by the correct order. Please try it now.
