I have a customer that is receiving the error message below. Everything is
working fine on my machine and I don't have a clue to what the error
is. Anyone have a clue?

Warning: ftp_login() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in
/import.php on line 60

Here is the code......
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);

All of the variables have been set.

Judging by the error, $conn_id is not a connection identifier returned from
ftp_connect(). Maybe you should check the results of the call to that
function.

Thanks, but already verified. The same script works fine on other servers.

Any other ideas?

I think the key there is "other servers". Are you sure this server allows
connections?

Did you check to make sure this server works?

From what I have seen in the past, if the server doesn't allow php ftp
connections, the error(s) are different. I I've asked my customer to try
to connect to try and connect to her server through the script. If she
connects, then i am in the clear. :)

I'm happy to say that I found what the problem was. My customer's host has
disabled the outgoing ftp connects via php.

Thanks for helping.

Hi,

I have the same problem: ftp_login() expects parameter 1 to be resource,

Where can I find the disabled outgoing ftp?
