I want to send file from local to remote server and after saving file to server I want to output the response. I am using cURL to send file.

Here is my code.

$target_url = 'https://example.com/accept.php';
$file_name_with_full_path = realpath('ss.zip');
$post = array('file' => new CurlFile($file_name_with_full_path, 'application/zip' /* MIME-Type */, 'ss.zip'));

    $ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$target_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
$result=curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
echo $result;

code on server is like:

$uploaddir = realpath('./') . '/';
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['file']['name']);
echo '<pre>';
    if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
        echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
    }
    print_r($_FILES);
print "</pr" . "e>\n";

I don't know what's wrong with my code ? everytime it returns result false

What is the print of $_POST ? – Thomas Dupont Aug 28 '17 at 13:38
same as $_FILES, every time it returns false. – Snappy Aug 28 '17 at 13:46

If `curl_exec()` is returning `false`, then you should check the value of [`curl_error()`](http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-error.php) – Patrick Q Aug 28 '17 at 13:48

point curl at your CA certs, or set CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER: FALSE – delboy1978uk Aug 28 '17 at 13:59
This is basically a duplicate now. Search that error. You'll find plenty of solutions. – Patrick Q Aug 28 '17 at 14:09
Thanks a lot guys. – Snappy Aug 28 '17 at 14:42
