How to access FTP from RobotStudio

duesentrieb66

Hello all

try to connect to my FTP server on the same machine as robotstudio with no sucsess.

Load\Dynamic,"MyFTPServer:"\File:="main.mod";

Under Motion Configuration i have:

- 614-1 FTP-Client

- 615-1 NFS Client

- 616-1 PC Interface

under Configuration-Communication I have the correct IP address (192.168.0.192). Tried 127.0.0.1 and localhost - nothing.

When I connect from a "real" controller (running robot) it works perfect - so my FTP Server is OK.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I've never had any success with the FTP-Client option in RobotStudio, connecting with an application like FileZilla however seems to work with no issues.

I have problems with FileZilla.

working:

-vsFTP (Debian)

- own Java FTP-Server (Windows/Debian)

not working:

- FileZilla (Controller doesn't seem to send the password)

- own C++ FTP-Server (instead RETR command controller send LIST command)

I tried several FTP-Clients to access a file from my C++ FTP-Server (integrated into my software) and they all work. So username, password, IP etc must be correct.

Maybe if you could share the settings of your FileZilla-Server could lead me to the solution?

Thanks!

When I login via FileZilla I don't use a username/password, leaving it blank works just fine. I am using RW 5.15 though

OK, I'll try. I have same RW

Here what I get:

hmm - are you using FileZilla as a client to access the controller or the Server to access FROM the controller to the FileZilla FTP Server?

xerim

Access the controller

duesentrieb66

ok, I try the other way. Thanks anyways!
