Copy from one domain to another – getting error

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 15.2010

When I run this code:

[code=php]
if(!@copy(‘http://www.choicenator.com/ajax/selectcontender.js’,’/home/$user/public_html/$shop/ajax/selectcontender.js’))
{
$errors= error_get_last();
echo “COPY ERROR: “.$errors[‘type’];
echo “<br />n”.$errors[‘message’];
} else {
echo “File copied from remote!”;
}[/code]

I am getting this error:

[QUOTE]

COPY ERROR: 2
copy(/home/magnif9/public_html/$shop/ajax/selectcontender.js) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory

[/QUOTE]

You can copy and paste the file source and see that it is the correct location. I have set the file permissions to 777. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris

@ilbonparaurtiMay 03.2010 — I highly suggest using cURL. Something along the lines of:

[code=php]
function fetch_url( $url )
{
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, USER_AGENT );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, 1 );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1 );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION , 1 );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION , 1 );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url );
curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, NULL );
$contents = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

return $contents;
}

$localFile = "/home/$user/public_html/$shop/ajax/selectcontender.js";
$remoteFile = 'http://www.choicenator.com/ajax/selectcontender.js';

$contents = fetch_url($remoteFile);
$handle = fopen( $localFile, 'w' );
fwrite($handle, $contents);
fclose($handle);
[/code]

Success!
