Upload a file on my Owncloud server with PHP - php

Question

Recently I created my owncloud server and I need to be able to upload a file from a php form which transfer an file from my pc to my owncloud server. So I tried to use Curl, like this :
<?php
$url = "5.25.9.14/remote.php/webdav/plus.png";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "PUT"); // -X PUT
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "root:root"); // --user
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, TRUE); // --data-binary
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array(
'img/plus.png' => '#'.realpath('img/plus.png')
)
);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
?>
I have been inspire by this post and this command :
curl -X PUT "http://server.com/owncloud/remote.php/webdav/file.zip" --data-binary #"/Users/Root/Downloads/file.zip"
The command line, he's working but not my php. I succeed to upload the file but the file is corrupted and I don't know why :/. Maybe I miss the MIME type ? Is it enough to get a corrupted file ?
Do you see where I am wrong ?
Best regards, Zed13
Edit : When I make an file of my uploaded file, it's of type data and not png, strange...

I was having an issue with an upload to owncloud as well. Had the same symptoms, the command line curl works, but not the PHP curl call.
Thanks to your post I was able to get it working. Here is what works for me
// upload backup
$file_path_str = '/tmp/' . date('Ymd') . '.tar.gz';
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://server/remote.php/webdav/backups/' . basename($file_path_str));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "user:pass");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PUT, 1);
$fh_res = fopen($file_path_str, 'r');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILE, $fh_res);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE, filesize($file_path_str));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, TRUE); // --data-binary
$curl_response_res = curl_exec ($ch);
fclose($fh_res);
The differences are:
CURLOPT_PUT instead of CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST
CURLOPT_INFILE and CURLOPT_INFILESIZE instead of CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS
Thanks for your help.
