connection problems with ActiveX demo (wodFtpDLX / wodFtpDLX.NET)

by Patrick Rock, Tuesday, July 11, 2006, 22:47 (6710 days ago)

I downloaded the FtpDLX demo version and have been trying to connect to the server where I plan to do most of my secure server downloads, but .Connect is returning a null value.

I am running in VFP 9. I had expected that a failure to connect with the server would return 0 (zero), but it is not. Is the null a normal return value? I've checked the username and password, so I'm trying to figure how to make it work before spending the boss' money.

Please help.


TIA

Hi Patrick,


After you import wodFtpDLX ActiveX control in VFP you can add this code to connect:
-----------------------------
thisform.sftp.HostName= 'your_hostname'
thisform.sftp.Login='your_login'
thisform.sftp.Password='your_password'
thisform.sftp.Connect()
-----------------------------

You mention that you get 0 value, from where?
If you are referring to ErrorCode in for example Connected Event that this mean that you don't have error and successfully connect to your server.


Hope I helped.


Regards,
Drazen

Patrick,

try to set Blocking property to True value - this could be important.

Here is my code:

ObjFTPSSH=Createobject( WeOnlyDo.wodFtpDLXCom.1 )
ObjFTPSSH.HostName = pc_host
ObjFTPSSH.Login = pc_usr
ObjFTPSSH.Password = pc_pwd
ObjFTPSSH.Port = 22
ObjFTPSSH.Blocking = .T.
ObjFTPSSH.Protocol = 1
ObjFTPSSH.Timeout = 60
pn_connect = ObjFTPSSH.Connect()
pc_lstdir = ObjFTPSSH.ListDir( / )
ObjFTPSSH.Disconnect

The values for pn_connect and pc_lstdir both return .Null. I expected that the first would return a numeric value and the second a string (even an empty string) value.

I have checked my host name, user name, and password, but I'm getting nothing at the moment.

You mention that you get 0 value, from where?
If you are referring to ErrorCode in for example
Connected Event that this mean that you don't
have error and successfully connect to your server.

As I said, I was expecting a 0 value from .Connect() if the connection had failed, but not a Null value.

Patrick,


Here is example how you need to use wodFtpDLX to get content of files and folders from server :

-----------------------------------------
dlx1=CREATEOBJECT('WeOnlyDo.wodFtpDLXCom.1')

dlx1.HostName = 'your_hostname'
dlx1.Protocol = 1
dlx1.Port = 22
dlx1.Login = 'your_login'
dlx1.Password = 'your_password'
dlx1.Blocking = .t.
dlx1.Timeout = 60
dlx1.Connect()

dlx1.ListDir ('/home/something')

For i = 0 To dlx1.DirItems.Count - 1
? (dlx1.DirItems.Item(i).Name)
Next i
-----------------------------------------

Hope this helps

Drazen

Drazen,

Thank you. That helped.

I am using the demo, and will now recommend it to the company (and have them spend the money).
