FTP problems

FinalBuilder Discussion
1

 HI,

I am having problems uploading files to my web server using FinalBuilder (latest version). Here's what happens:

- FTP Connect action -> works
- FTP Change Directory action -> fails with "Not Connected"

No matter what FTP action I attempt after the connect I always get the same "Not Connected" error.

If I run a WireShark trace of the traffic I see that the connection goes through fine, but when the directory command should be issued  FinalBuilder disconnects from the ftp server.

The strange thing is that the deprecated FTP action works perfectly.

Here's the FinalBuilder log (id info changes):

Any ideas?

Hi Paul

Try turning on Passive mode and detailed logging. Also which FTP server are you using? Which FinalBuilder version/build are you using?

Hi,

Passive mode does’t seem to have any effect either way.

I deleted all the actions and added them again and this time it works.

Cheers,
Paul
