V9.97c FTP Upload

Upgraded to v9.97c from v9.97a and my index.html page is not updating. The webcam file does along with wx3, wx4 and wx5.html. (Not using wx2 right now)

Me too,

something is wrong there!!

ok, yes, i put in a check, that if you are uploading index.html, and you changed directory before uploading it, then if that directory change failed, then it wont upload the file, so that it does not overwrite your home directory (the directory underneath)…
but is this not working?
is there any error when the directory change occurs on the log in?
use the ftpupd.exe version from a version before 9.97c until i get this fixed
sorry

i did a test
and it works OK
which means you guys must have an error occuing with the CWD command
post here the contents of the ftplogfull.txt file after it fails to upload the file

you need to fix your remote directory in the ftp setup

I get that same thing using 9.97a and it uploads the index file.

The index file file is the normal web page name I’m using instead of wx.htm

yes, but see my earlier post:
I now have it that if the CWD (change directory) command fails, and your are uploading a file called index.html, then it wont upload it, as otherwise it means it may have failed to change to the correct directory, and so it prevents the index.html file from being replaced in say your home directory
but, for your case, it looks like you dont need a remote directory at all, so just remove that from the ftp setup

I made the correction and it’s working. Thanks again!

thats been a non fatal error in your setup that has not neen a problem until i added a feature that someone wanted, and then it caused a problem for someone else (typical), but at least you can easily fix it :slight_smile:
