What is the best method for executing FTP commands from a SQL Server stored procedure? we currently use something like this: EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'ftp -n -s:d:\ftp\ftpscript.xmt 172.1.1.1' The problem is that the command seems to succeed even if the FTP ended in error. Also, the use of xp_cmdshell requires special permissions and m...
It seems like drag and drop upload widgets disappeared from the face of Web 2.0. The last one of these I remember using was an activex widget, and inability of using it in anything other than IE doomed it. Have you used or seen one of these recently?...
I have a script that checks responses from HTTP servers using the PEAR HTTP classes. However, I've recently found that the script fails on FTP servers (and probably anything that's not HTTP or HTTPS). I tried Google, but didn't see any scripts or code that returned the server status code from servers other than HTTP servers. How can I f...
I'm introducing Subversion into our web shop. I want to want the checked in files to be uploaded into the server via FTP (and as they get use to Subversion, via SFTP). The files are sent to a release candidate page for testing purposes. A script can be called to move the files into production. My question is this: How do you transfer th...
We have some files on our website that users of our software can download. Some of the files are in virtual folders on the website while others are on our ftp. The files on the ftp are generally accessed by clicking on an ftp:// link in a browser - most of our customers do not have an ftp client. The other files are accessed by clicking ...
What is the best was to retrieve a file from a server using SFTP (as opposed to FTPS) using Java? I'll leave the particular definition of best up to you but in my mind it should include free :) ...
I want to get the results of a stored procedure and place them into a CSV file onto a FTP location. The catch though is that I cannot create a local/temporary file that I can then FTP over. The approach I was taking was to use an SSIS package to create a temporary file and then have a FTP Task within the pack to FTP the file over, but ...
Is there an FTP browser hiding away in NetBeans 6.1? The help manual doesn't even suggest FTP exists. All I've been able to find so far is a tree viewer in the Services panel (no edit controls) and the ability to upload projects, folders and specific files from the Projects/Files views. Is there anywhere to delete or rename or will I h...
What is your favorite SFTP client? I'm in need of a free-as-in-beer SFTP client for Windows. There seem to be a number of them out there, of varying quality. It doesn't need to be fancy. Decent usability and high quality would be the ideal. Thanks! ...
This is starting to vex me. I recently decided to clear out my FTP, and stumbled across an old Wordpress install I forgot I had (oh yes, very security conscious me). Anyway, for some reason deleting the directory failed so I investigated to see what was causing the blockage and I've narrowed it down to a file in wp-content. Now when I t...
Hi, I would like to use the built in windows ftp application to download some files on a periodic basis using a scheduled task and a .bat file. However I don't want to download the whole directory each time just the files that have changed or are new. Can this be done or do I need to write .NET application or the like? UPDATE: After ...
We need to move off traditional FTP for security purposes (it transmits it's passwords unencrypted). I am hearing SSH touted as the obvious alternative. However I have been driving FTP from an ASP.NET program interface to automate my web-site development, which is now quite a highly web-enabled process. Can anyone recommend a secure wa...
I've had a FTP server (Mac OS X, but not the server version) set up for a while where the users are virtual, i.e. they are not actual user accounts in the server's OS, but accounts handled by the FTP server software -- to the OS they all look like the ftp user account. I'd like to retire the FTP server software and go SFTP instead. Is t...
I have the need to copy the entire contents of a directory on a FTP location onto a shared networked location. FTP Task has you specify the exact file name (not a directory) and File System Task does not allow accessing a FTP location. EDIT: I ended up writing a script task. ...
I have connected to a server via SFTP using FileZilla and accepted adding the server's SSH key to the key cache in FileZilla. How can I extract this cached key to a keyfile so that may use it through other SFTP applications that require a keyfile be made available? I have not been able to find anything in the FileZilla documentatio...
EDIT: Learned that Webmethods actually uses NLST, not LIST, if that matters Our business uses the WebMethods integration server to handle most of our outbound communications, and its FTP functionality leaves something to be desired. We are having a problem that may be specific to WebMethods, but if anyone can point me in a direction of...
I am looking for a FTP Server that has a decent API. It would be great if I could code use the .NET Framework. I am currently using Secure FTP from GlobalSCAPE but I have had less than plesant experiences working with it. ...
Sorry for the subject line sounding like an even nerdier Harry Potter title. I'm trying to use AS3's Socket class to write a simple FTP program to export as an AIR app in Flex Builder 3. I'm using an FTP server on my local network to test the program. I can successfully connect to the server (the easy part) but I can't send any comman...
Are there any systems out there where one can check in changes for a website and have that automatically update the website. The website effetively runs off the latest stable build the whole time without the need to ftp the files to the server. ...
Anyone know of a good, hopefully free FTP class for use in .NET that can actually work behind an HTTP proxy or FTP gateway? The FtpWebRequest stuff in .NET is horrible at best, and I really don't want to roll my own here. ...
