Copy file from remote URL to my server

Question

I have this code and it works but has a limitation only can copy files of 4.0mb, someone can help me to increase that size to copy files larger. thanks

<? $archivo_origen=$_POST["origen"]; $archivo_destino=$_POST["destino"]; function descarga_archivo ($archivo_origen,$archivo_destino){ $mi_curl = curl_init ($archivo_origen); $fs_archivo = fopen ($archivo_destino, "w"); curl_setopt ($mi_curl, CURLOPT_FILE, $fs_archivo); curl_setopt ($mi_curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_exec ($mi_curl); curl_close ($mi_curl); fclose ($fs_archivo); } descarga_archivo($archivo_origen,$archivo_destino); header("location: index.php"); ?>

Instead of using CURL, you might try file_get_contents($url)? — rjz

the problem is that this code runs on a free hosting server and I not have all the features enabled, so I use cURL, however would appreciate an example of file_get_contents ($ url) to prove it. — HeribertoVJ

$fs_origen = fopen($archivo_origen, 'r'); $fs_destino = fopen($archivo_destino, 'w'); while($data = fread($fs_origen, 4096)) fwrite($fs_destino, $data); fclose($fs_origen); fclose($fs_destino);

EDIT: replace stream_copy_to_stream with loop.

with all the codes that I can use just copy 4.0mb, I do not know if it will be by the server configuration

It sounds like both curl and stream_copy_to_stream run into php memory size limits. You may have to write your own loop using fread() and fwrite() in smaller chunks.

if you could give me an example, I do not know much about php. Use this code to download files that are denied because I am from Cuba and my proxy does not allow downloading files *. exe, *. zip Thanks

thanks for the help but I think due to some configuration of my hosting, only copy 4.0mb. Thanks for your time

Sounds like the hosting server has a file size limit. They probably don't want you filling up their disk with junk, or using it to host lots of illegal downloads.
