Re^2: Copy folder into non-existent folder on ftp server.

It would almost certainly be easier and quicker to tar/zip the directories; upload the archive and untar/zip it at the other end.

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The start of some sanity?

How would that be easier? I honestly don't know :D Isn't it simpler to just copy the file? This is the workaround I made for my problem but its not great seeing as the user has to input one more command `if ($upload_local && $upload_remote && $up_dir) { print "Preparing to upload file $upload_local to $upload_remote \n"; sleep 3; if ($sftp->mkpath($up_dir)){ if ($sftp->put($upload_local, $upload_remote)){ print "The file \"$upload_local\" was uploaded to \"$upload_remote\""; } else { print "\"$upload_local\" or \"$upload_remote\" could not be found. Che +ck your path!"; } } else { print "\"$up_dir\" could not be found. Check your path!"; } }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
