Hi:

I'm not an expert by any means, but are you trying to ftp a file to a
site with a curl?

> Allow from all
> Script PUT /put.php

> $outFP = @fopen( basename( $REQUEST_URI ), "wb" );
> while( $data = fread( $inFP, 1024 ) )

> fclose($outFP);

> if( $totalWritten ) header( "HTTP/1.0 200 Success" );
> else header( "HTTP/1.0 404 Failed" );

> C:\>dir test

> 1 File(s) 779 bytes
> 0 Dir(s) 489,162,752 bytes free

> C:\>curl -i -T test http://be1.redswoosh.net/metadata/
> HTTP/1.1 100 Continue
>
> HTTP/1.1 404 Failed
> Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2006 01:34:13 GMT
> Server: Apache
> X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.2
> Content-Length: 0
> Content-Type: text/html
>
>
> C:\>

>4) Check to see if the file arrived:
>
> [root_at_myserver]# ls -latr
> total 16
> drwxr-xr-x 18 admin admin 4096 Mar 26 15:09 ..
> -rw-r--r-- 1 admin admin 13 Mar 26 15:23 index.html
> -rw-r--r-- 1 admin admin 926 Mar 26 16:35 put.php
> -rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 0 Mar 26 17:15 test
> drwxrwxrwx 2 admin admin 4096 Mar 26 17:15 .
> [root_at_myserver]#
>
>
>As you can see from this command sequence, it succeeds in:
>
> a) Accepting the PUT request
> b) Directing to the PHP script
> c) Getting the right filename
> d) Opening an output file
>
>(Also, though I've removed the error checking in the example above, it's
>able to open the 'stdin' handle without trouble.)

>But I'm stumped as to why it won't write the file content itself. Any
