Android Question FTP Problem

[Buncher60]

I cannot get the FTP JobDone to list the files in a FTP directory.

The path is configured for FTP on the server.

I am in the directory o.k. according to the log in FTP_ListCompleted and I know there is a file there but it does not show in the Files() array.

The server is a Windows Server if that makes a difference.

Any pointers to what the problem might be would be really appreciated.

I don't know if there's a way to select passive mode or not in the FTP lib?

But you can try that.

Native Windows FTP server always had strange issues.

Thanks for your response sorex.

I'll try what you've suggested but my very basic understanding of passive mode is that there would need to be a listening port no. returned. There doesn't seem to be a property or method to do that. Maybe it might be handled internally.

In any case I'll let you know for future reference.
