Download a file that is force bound to PHP

Question

I am trying to download a file from PHP from an FTP server, which I can also access from http. For example: FTP://username:[e-mail]/file_name_here.gz. The file is forcibly used as an attachment from the server (and not in PDF or TXT format, for example: output). I tried this with three different ways:

• file_get_contents -> Return file of zero size
• Curl → Timeout
• FTP function -> Returns a file of zero size

I think CURL is a way to do this, but I cannot upload the file ... Here is my code:

$curl = curl_init();
$url ='ftp://'.$network['username'].':'.$network['password'].'@'.$network['metadata_url'].'/'.$path.'/'.$data['title'];
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL,$url);
//curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$_FTP[username]:$_FTP[password]");
//curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
$file = fopen("./feeds/".$data['title'], "w");
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FILE, $file);
$result = curl_exec ($curl);

I tried to set both the username and password in CURLOPT_URL and set them using CURL. The same thing happens in both ways ...

You can help?
