Title: FTP problem
Post by: RNAGG on May 18, 2010, 08:37:33 PM
I'm having problem in sending file FTP. After sending the first file with the extension. GIF or other files are saved with the extension. TMP and other names.
I tried to solve the problem with the company making the hosting of my site, but he could not.

Someone might give you an idea of how to solve this problem? I've read about it in the Forum and could not solve.

Thanks

What hosting company are you using, a lot of guys on here have had the same problems, including me. Most of us moved over to using http://gofreeserve.com/ which no body has had any problems with. I myself have just moved over to using justhost.com which is not free, but has a small charge and everything is work great. You can see mine at www.absbta2011.co.uk

Thank you for the information abrad41!

I auditioned in GoFreeServe and worked perfectly. If the hosting company does not resolve the problem, you change to gofreeserve.com.

Hello

In Gofreeserve the folder you upload to must be inside htdocs so your "folder" information in radarbox should be something like htdocs/ANRB and not just ANRB.

I upload to ftp.gofreeserve.com/htdocs/shot/ and a single screenshot ends up in http://www.tarbat.gofreeserve.com/shot/

What version of Radarbox are you running - the latest?

Not sure if this is something that changed in the later version.  I'd recommend installing the latest version from http://www.airnavsystems.com/RadarBox/support.html

I sow on the source file that it allways have the same file name
<p>src="AirNav_files/RadarScreenShot.gif" align="center" hspace="0"></font></p>

Here's what I do, using Gofreeserve - check my link (on the left) to see it in action:

In File, Preferences:

(http://www.rbearden.toucansurf.com/Miscpix/FTP.gif)

And this is the script on the webpage, which refreshes every 30 seconds, even though the FTP upload is once  a minute:

<IMG border=5 name=refresh src="RadarBoxScreenShot.gif"></P><P align=center>
  <SCRIPT language=JavaScript type=text/javascript>
      <!--
      var t = 30 // interval in seconds
      image = "RadarBoxScreenShot.gif" //name of the image
      function Start() {
      tmp = new Date();
      tmp = "?"+tmp.getTime()
      document.images["refresh"].src = image+tmp
      setTimeout("Start()", t*1000)
      }
      Start();
      // -->
      </SCRIPT>

Hope that helps

Rod

Hi Rod.

I took your page (for testing only, i hope it's ok with you)
and upload it to the same directory.

now, i look at ANRB Temp Dir, and the files look ok to me
but something is mest up during upload.

(http://www.iarc.org/~4z5rm/ANRB/ftperror.jpg)

on your web page, what changing the file name from this "201010241535.tmp"
to this "RadarBoxScreenShot.gif" ?

I know for sure that  i'm missing something here :(

I really don't know why that's not working for you. I assume that RadarBox sends the file as RadarBoxScreenShot.gif, but that the Gofreeserve server names it as a temp file until it receives all of the file, when it renames it to the proper name.

My Gofreeserve folder collects TMP files at apparently random times (possibly if I close RadarBox during FTP upload) and I go in and delete them every few weeks.

Perhaps we need an FTP expert (which I'm not) to solve your problem.

It would suggest that the directory you're uploading to doesn't allow file renames.  When Radarbox uploads to ftp, it does:
STOR _201010160738.tmp
RNFR _201010160738.tmp
RNTO RadarBoxScreenShot.gif

If the final RNTO command fails, you end up with lots of .tmp files.  See the bit about file permissions at http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=3000.msg27562#msg27562
