PHP fopen ssh2

I am trying to open a file via fopen using ssh2 for sftp I referenced the page http://php.net/manual/en/function.ssh2-sftp.php and coded my stuff how it needed to be. Other ssh2 functions work fine but no fopen.... why not? It gives me the error
Warning: fopen(ssh2.sftp://Resource id #116public_html/mesa-electricians.com/dxq_nft.php) [<a href='function.fopen'>function.fopen</a>]: failed to open stream: Operation now in progress in /home/navolutions/public_html/library/remote_access.php on line 606 
 
Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/navolutions/public_html/library/remote_access.php on line 607 

 
Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/navolutions/public_html/library/remote_access.php on line 608

$connection = ssh2_connect( $this->m_ftpHost );
				if( ssh2_auth_password( $connection, $this->m_ftpUser, $this->m_ftpPassword ) ){
					$this->m_ftpConnection = ssh2_sftp( $connection );
					$this->m_loggedIn = true;
				}
....
$sftp = $this->m_ftpConnection;
				$fileStream = fopen( "ssh2.sftp://$sftp$this->m_sitePlaza/$fileLocation", "wb" );
				fwrite( $fileStream, $fileData );
				fclose( $fileStream );

Well, the error messages show line numbers in excess of 600 yet the code snippet is only ten lines, so it would be hard to guess what else might be going on there.

Can you please make an isolated test case for us, then post the entire code and the error messages so we can see the correct line numbers? Thanks and regards, ~Ray

You might have better luck with phpseclib's Net_SFTP:

http://phpseclib.sourceforge.net/

Personally, I think its API is a lot more intuitive than PECL's ssh2 extension. It's faster, as well, per this:

Yes there is a lot going on but the lines I gave are well enough isolated to prove that what is stated at php.net is not working, and I was wonder if I was doing something wrong but it does not appear so, as far as further isolation fine here is the new error.

Warning: fopen() [function.fopen]: Unable to open ssh2.sftp://Resource id #3/test.txt on remote host in /home/navolutions/public_html/test.php on line 7

Warning: fopen(ssh2.sftp://Resource id #3/test.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/navolutions/public_html/test.php on line 7

Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/navolutions/public_html/test.php on line 8

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/navolutions/public_html/test.php on line 9

and the code to go along with it

<?php 

$connection = ssh2_connect( "[NOT DISPLAYED FOR SECURITY]" );
if( ssh2_auth_password( $connection, "[NOT DISPLAYED FOR SECURITY]", "[NOT DISPLAYED FOR SECURITY]" ) ){
	$sftp = ssh2_sftp( $connection );
	$fileData = "Hello World\n";
    $fileStream = fopen( "ssh2.sftp://$sftp/test.txt", "wb" );
	fwrite( $fileStream, $fileData );
	fclose( $fileStream );
}

?>

It took me some time to get ssh2lib working with php could you offer some instruction as far as where I can get a API reference and guide on installing or phpize'ing the phpseclib

Is there a guide on installing that package on a cent os server?

Doing the research on installing the api and php object could require a great deal on research, so unless I can get a guide I will be force to accept the solution on a C grade

No guide but it was not to hard to install
