File transfer over FTP
I've written the following script to automate my tutorial updates:
Code:
#SolarBear's script of tutorial sending
import ftplib,os
filepath = 'F:\Documents and Settings\David\Mes documents\py\\'
filename = 'python_tutorial_by_SolarBear.pdf'
f = open(filename,'r')
rootr = ftplib.FTP('rootr.com','username','password')
rootr.set_debuglevel(2) #just in case
rootr.cwd('web/solarbear.rootr.com')
try:
rootr.delete(filename)
except: pass
rootr.storbinary('STOR '+ filename,f)
rootr.quit()
f.close()
Connecting and file deletion (is it even necessary ?) work ok, the problem is in the file-sending part : after being 'sent'. I end up with a 3 kb file while it should be around 300 kb. Clearly, only a small portion of the file gets sent. My guess is that the connection closes too fast to leave enough time for the file to be sent... How can I make so the file actually gets sent ?

Well, you set the filepath but you never prepend it to the filename ... looks to me like you should be getting an IOError for the file not existing unless you have a copy in the current directory. Nothing else looks incorrect, the storbinary method should block until it's done, I believe. I think it would also raise an exception if it didn't complete successfully.

Ok, just a FYI, just in case. After asking around, I finally got to change the following line:
Code:
f = open(filename,'rb') And by opening it as binary, everything goes well and good.
