Thank you for hearing me :)

The problem is that whatever i try there is no data in any nlist or rawlist command i issue on my ftp server.

I started out with IIS 5.1 (standard winXP) and ended with bulletproof FTP 1.25, both not giving any listings..

Some sample code:

--------------

$dir=ftp_pwd($conn_id); 

$rawlist = ftp_rawlist($conn_id,$dir);
$nlist = ftp_nlist($conn_id,$dir);
         
if ($rawlist) { echo "<BR>Spawned value for nlist was ".$nlist; }
else { echo "<BR>empty as usual.."; }
if ($rawlist) { echo "<BR>Spawned value for rawlist was ".$rawlist; }
else { echo "<BR>empty as usual.."; }

echo "<BR>";

print_r($rawlist);
print_r($nlist);

--------------

where there:
- was a connection in the 1st place ($conn_id)
- i encountered not a single error message
- i used the "if .. else" to prove my wrong
- i received no data in my string

I have seen various bug reports resembling what i've expierenced but none of them got answered because they all stopped giving information which ended in: "can't reproduce the error."

I hope you (the brave volunteer) could help me.. :)

Thanxx

You're probably trying to get a listing in active mode, and being rejected.  Set the connection to passive mode with ftp_pasv() before you try to get the listing.
 [2001-11-08 02:13 UTC] phpbug at osiris dot xs4all dot nl 
After adding the following code after the connection and before the listings, 

// Initiate passive mode
if (ftp_pasv($conn_id, true))
{ echo "Initiated passive mode"; }
else { echo "Could not initiated passive mode"; }

The result stays the exact same..

What i forgot to mention: i can switch directorys etc. so
the connection seems to work, but the "LIST" command never reaches the ftp server (checked).

Update:

I just validated my FTP's logs and found out that:
- The user logs in correctly
- The passive request arrived and was set correctly
- There was no list command anywhere to be found

It's just not arriving.. (?)

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation 
problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/.
In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
