Android Question FTP Download not working

[aklisiewicz]

Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but cannot figure out what

Sub Globals
    'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
    'These variables can only be accessed from this module.
    Dim FTP As FTP
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    'Activity.LoadLayout("Layout1")
    Activity.LoadLayout("DownloadUpdates")
    Activity.Title = "Database Update"
    FTP.Initialize("FTP", "ftp.dps.com", 21, "android@dps.com","MyPassword")
End Sub

Sub lblDownload_Click
    FTP.DownloadFile("/public_html/android_db/edbq_rem.db", False, File.DirRootExternal, "edbq_rem.db")
End Sub

is there anything wrong with this code ?

the log generates:
-----------------------------------------------------
** Activity (downloadupdates) Create, isFirst = true **

** Activity (downloadupdates) Resume **

/public_html/android_db/edbq_lite_rem.db, Success=false

java.lang.RuntimeException: Error retrieving file.

500 I won't open a connection to 10.0.2.2 (only to 99.107.150.69)
----------------------------------------------------------------

BTW none of the IPs refers to the FTP server....






where do I call: FTP_DownloadProgress ?

Reove the msgbox and put a LOG-command there instead. Dont block the mainthread...

Testing FTP on the emulator can be problematic. It might work in passive mode.
