automatic redail of FTP after some minutes when line occupated?

Is there a possibility of an automatic redailing of the FTP after some minutes (say 5 or 10 minutes later), if the line was occupated?

It would be great, because I’ve only an analog telephone line here and so often data cant be transferred when telephoning …
Maybe that could be done in a future version?

It would be a wonderful innovation.

Many thanks!

wd should try again if busy, but 1 minute later…and then again a minute later, etc
set the number of redial attemps if line is busy to greater than zero in the connections setup

Where could I find that setting exactely?
I think at the moment I have tomatoes on my eyes #-o

Thanks!

connections setup, in the ftp/internet setup, via control panel

automatic redial of ftp does not work. I set the nubers of redail to 10.
reported in ftp log protocol: *** now anser* - and thats it .
please help.

Thank you!

i do not have it checking for no answer…which is a problem with your ISP not answering the call
i would need to know exactly what was reported in the ftp log, i.e a copy/paste…

At the moment I am not at my weather PC.

I’ll send you on saturday the ftp log protocol
Thanks!

Hi Brian,
is that ftp log protocol helpful for finding a solution?

cheers

sort of…
how often does the busy line signal occur for you?

nearly daily (1-3 times)
I am uploading/sending weather data every hour to our broadcasting enterprise and to the national weather service.
ftp and telephone is using the same line - unfortunately there is no other technical solution possible on the side of the telecom enterprise here :frowning:

ok, then thats german for there is no answer
i have added to check for that now
try this new ftpupd.exe verison:

Thank you!

well that is a different error message than before, and so i need to check for that too
(it will be a bit of a moving target (nothing is as easy as you think))

try http://www.weather-display.com/uploads/ftpupd.zip

Brian, no stress with that at the moment
