Hi,

I am fighting with dir recursion. I have the following dir structure on machine A and want to ftp it to machine B. I only want the files that are NOT on machine B to be put there (I.e. if they do not exist). 

test _
     |_subdir1
     |   |_lowersub1
     |        |_lowertest1.txt
     |
     |_subdir2
     |   |_lowersub2
     |   |    |_anotherlower2
     |   |    |      |_anotherlowertest2.txt
     |   |    |_lowersubtest2.txt
     |     |_subtest2.txt
     |
     |_subdir3
     |_test1.txt

I am able to handle the dirs but I keep missing the files in subdir2 (I.e. the directories get created but not the files.) If I run this again (I.e. the dirs are already there the files get put in their respective folders.)

This is what I have ... 

#! /usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::FTP;

my $test_exists = 0;

my $ftp = Net::FTP->new("machineB", Debug => 0) or die "Cannot connect
+ to machineB: $@";

$ftp->login('usr','pass') or die "Cannot login ", $ftp->message;

my $result = $ftp->ls("/myincomming") or die "ls failed ", $ftp->messa
+ge;

foreach (@{$result}) {
    print "$_\n";
    if ($_ =~ /(.)myincomming(.)test/i) {
        print "Dir Exists\n";
        $test_exists = 1;
        last;
    }
}

unless ($test_exists) { $ftp->mkdir("\\myincomming\\test") or die "mkd
+ir failed ", $ftp->message; }

my $firstdir = "./Test";
&ProcessStruct("$firstdir");

sub ProcessStruct
{
    my $dir = shift;
    my $ftp_dir_exists = 0;

    my $file;

    print "DIR = $dir\n";
    opendir DIR, $dir || die "cannot check dir $dir : $!\n";

    my @files = readdir DIR;
    closedir DIR;

    foreach my $file(@files) {
        next if $file =~/^\./;

        if (-f "$dir/$file") {
            print "SEND $dir/$file to ftp server\n";
            &Put_File($dir, $file);
        }
        else {
            $file = "$dir/$file";
            my @ret = $ftp->ls("/Cubes/$file/..");
            foreach (@ret) {
                my @subdirs = split /\\/, $_;
                if ($file =~ /$subdirs[$#subdirs]/i) {
                    $ftp_dir_exists = 1;
                    last;
                }
            }

            unless ($ftp_dir_exists) { $ftp->mkdir("/myincomming/$file
+") or die " next mkdir failed ", $ftp->message; }
            $ftp_dir_exists = 0;
            &ProcessStruct("$file");
        }
    }
    close DIR;
}

sub Put_File
{
    my $dir        = shift;
    my $file     = shift;

    my @ret = $ftp->ls("/myincomming/$dir");
    foreach (@ret) {
        if ($_ =~ /$file/i) {
            print "DONT PUT FILES = $_\n";
        }
        else {
            $ftp->put("$dir/$file", "/myincomming/$dir/$file") or die 
+"Cannot put file ", $ftp->message;
        }
    }
}
