Hello forum,

Another question that I have is regarding sending a file created in AppGameKit through open to write.

I've found on this forum a server file for the command and I managed to put some code for transferring but i don't see the file on my server. My server is from my website, I can access it through FTP in FileZilla. Is it possible through such server, or it must a server with other capabilities?

Here is the code:



Server File:



Thank you very much!

Remove all of the comments before the <?php tag in the PHP file, or the server will likely detect the script as standard text and not execute the commands. (You can move them to below the opening php tag if you wish instead of deleting them.)

Make sure you have manually created an "upload" folder on the server in the same directory as server.php.

Your AppGameKit script never sets "done" to 1 so the repeat loop will never exit. You will also want to check if GetHTTPResponseReady equals -1 as well as 1 or otherwise if there is an error with the request the loop will never break.

Hello xCept,

Thank your for your response!

Is it ok to put my website with ".com" instead of the ip address?

In the meantime, I did that and the output threw me this: (picture attached in this message)

As for the variable "done": Response is 0 at the end.

Thank you and I'll be waiting any response!

Yes.

I tested the script and it works fine on my server, so it's an issue with your server configuration.

As a side note, keep in mind if you want to actually keep the uploaded file on the server, you should move it from the tmp directory to a more permanent location.

I understand, maybe it must be the configuration, but by the way, I also have some login credentials. Do I must paste them into the application or it can work by itself?

Well if you can't access the page without logging in, then how do you think the script is going to access the page? If you want to prevent unauthorized access to the page, you're going to have to customize the script a bit. Include POST data of the username and password then handle the credentials in the php script to check authorization before accepting the file upload. And since POST data is still viewable, make sure to salt the password before transmission. Never send a password in plain text. Ideally, you'd want an SSL connection if you're sending login information.
