ftp problem

[belidi]

hello

hello
I want to change server, "skynet.be" to server "ovh.com." lorsaue I put in the necessary information Meteohub I get this:

"Error on call system: / usr / bin / ncftpput-S.-V-u tmp" beltxmvf "-p 'XXXXXX' P-21 ftp.bel1.eu / Weather / home / Meteohub / Meteohub upload.test-2> & 1
Error: The file test "Meteohub-upload.test" has not been sent (returned code 1280: Unknown Error). "
with fiezella or "total commander", there is no connection problem
the / meteo is chmod 705

What is my problem?

The folder name ("Dossier Répertoire") should be included in slashes: /meteo/

[belidi]

Sorry
but the error is always the same. exept the code 258

thank you for your help

I do not use slashes at all and it works!

Have you tried to do this from the commandline, using the exact same command?

Testing directly from the commandline gives you the option to add "-d", this will give you full debugging information.

I've seen a similair occurrence before, and it turned out that the ftp server was not allowing file renames. From what I recall ncftpput 1st uploads into a temporary file and then renames to the targetfile. Most likely removing the "-S" option will allow the upload to succeed.

How can I do this command?

[admin]

Please don't use special characters in path or password. Meteohub does not handle that in all cases correctly.

[belidi]

no special characters, only uppercase and lowercase like this: CvBNdfg

My system is iconnect and using "putty" in windows, I can not connect via telnet and enter the command line.

Hi,

You will need to use ssh to connect to Meteohub. You can use putty for this.

Here is what I get as a response:

meteohub:/usr/bin# ncftpput -S .tmp -V -u "YYyyYY11" -p 'XXxxXXX' -P 21 ftp.bel1.eu /meteo/ /home/meteohub/meteohub-upload.test 2>&1
ncftpput: Could not change to directory /meteo/: server said: Can't change directory to meteo: No such file or directory

meteohub:/usr/bin# ncftpput -S .tmp -V -u "YYyyYYY11" -p 'XXxxXXxx' -P 21 ftp.bel1.eu /meteo /home/meteohub/meteohub-upload.test 2>&1
ncftpput: Could not change to directory /meteo: server said: Can't change directory to meteo: No such file or directory

I if I create another folder like "foo", the answer is even.

after having tried on the new server, I wanted to return to that worked and this is what I get now!!
Error on system call: /usr/bin/ncftpput -S .tmp -V -u "YYYYYYYYY" -p 'XXXxx1111' -P 21 users.skynet.be /meteo/ /home/meteohub/meteohub-upload.test 2>&1

Hi,

It looks like there is no /meteo directory on the ftp server.

Not sure how to debug this server, I could try this myself, but then you will need to create a -temporary- account and password for me. Not sure if that is ossible and if you are able/willing to do so.

This is what I've just tried on my own server using a file that does always exist on MH:

Code: Select all

ncftpput -S .tmp -d -V -u username -p secret asterix /tmp /home/meteohub/meteohub.conf

Ok, thank you for the time you spent to help me. Force but try to understand, via commands, I found my mistake.
The directory of my hosting provider is not "/ weather /" but www / Weather /.
I was wrong, because my old hoster the directory / Weather / worked.
Again my apologies for any inconvenience

[YJB]

No problem, always happy to help.

The main thing is that you've figured out the problem!
