Hi David,
Just changed hosts and n longer have access to command line. When scheduling a cron job to download products the script times out "curl: (52) Empty reply from server". Do you have a workaround for this?
Thanks,
Simon
Hi David,
This is the script I am requesting
set_time_limit(0); // allow unlimited execution time
print "Downloading product feeds ...";
function download($file_source, $file_target) {
$rh = fopen($file_source, 'rb');
$wh = fopen($file_target, 'wb');
if ($rh===false || $wh===false) {
// error reading or opening file
return true;
}
while (!feof($rh)) {
if (fwrite($wh, fread($rh, 1024)) ===FALSE) {
// 'Download error: Cannot write to file ('.$file_target.')';
return true;
}
}
fclose($rh);
fclose($wh);
// test to see if $file_target is zipped
$filePointer = fopen($file_target,"r");
$fileHeader = fread($filePointer,4);
fclose($filePointer);
if ($fileHeader == "PK".chr(0x03).chr(0x04))
{
// try and unzip using unzip
$command = "/usr/bin/unzip -p ".$file_target." > ".$file_target.".unzipped";
exec($command);
if (filesize($file_target.".unzipped"))
{
unlink($file_target);
rename($file_target.".unzipped",$file_target);
}
}
else
{
// see if the file is gzipped (i.e. tradedoubler)
// however this cannot be detected from the header
// so you just have to try....!
$command = "/usr/bin/gzip -c -d -S \"\" ".$file_target." > ".$file_target.".ungzipped";
exec($command);
if (filesize($file_target.".ungzipped"))
{
unlink($file_target);
rename($file_target.".ungzipped",$file_target);
}
else
{
unlink($file_target.".ungzipped");
}
}
// No error
return false;
}
//Appliance Spares
download('http://xxxxx','../feeds/HOMEAPPL_APPLSPAR_AW_electricshoppingcom.csv');
print " done.";Thanks,
Simon
Hi Simon,
Try making the script generate some output during the download, that might help. Look for the following code (around line 11):
while (!feof($rh)) {...and REPLACE with:
while (!feof($rh)) {
print ".";Hope this helps!
Cheers,
David.

Hi Simon,
flush() might help - have a go with;
while (!feof($rh)) {
print ".";flush();Cheers,
