Question by RadioactiveTechnologies · Nov 21, 2014 at 12:24 PM · c#uploadftp

C# How to send a string to my FTP server.

         RPG rpg = myPlayer.GetComponent<RPG> ();
         WWWForm form = new WWWForm();
         // The name of the player submitting the scores
         form.AddField( "Username", rpg.username );
         // The score
         form.AddField( "MaxHealth", rpg.maxHealthPoints.ToString() );
         // Create a download object
         WWW download = new WWW( WhatDoIPutHere, form );
         while(!download.isDone){
             print (download.progress.ToString());
         }
         if(download.error!=null){
             Debug.Log(download.error);
         }
         print (download.isDone);
         print ("Uploaded");

I have that in a void. What do I put instead of 'WhatDoIPutHere'? I have an FTP server which I can log into in Filezilla. Could someone tell me the format that I input the data from Filezilla into the string? Thanks in advance for all you advanced programmers, Connor. CEO of Radioactive Technologies.

From the documentation ( http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/WWW.html ): "ftp\:// protocol support is limited to anonymous downloads only." Therefore, you can't log in to an FTP server using the WWW class.

You may want to look into FtpWebRequest and FtpWebResponse instead, or one of the many other FTP implementations/libraries available for C#.

@RadioactiveTechnologies: Uhm, are you sure you know what a FTP server is? It uses the File Transfer Protocol which is ment to work with files. The usage of an FTP serer is very limited and you usually don't want to include login information to an FTP server in your game.

To communicate with a server you usually use an HTTP server with a serverside scripting environment like PHP.

I don't know how to use PHP, is there a Unity PHP C# tutorial you can recommend?
