ftp_ssl_connect from Apache/php is failing while command-line sftp is working

Question

server I can run the command: sftp user@192.168.0.130 But when I test this PHP command it is unavailable to connect to the sftp.

$ftp_conn = ftp_ssl_connect("192.168.0.130", 22) or die("Could not connect to 192.168.0.130");

Why is it like this? I use an Ubuntu Server 15.04 and Apache2.

read the [docs](http://php.net/manual/en/function.ftp-ssl-connect.php) — gre_gor, Jul 22 '16 at 12:36

SFTP is not FTP over TLS/SSL.

So the PHP FTP/SSL client will fail to talk to the remote SSH server.
