Hi all, i'm a new user, and started programming with basic4android yesterday.
I try to upload a file using FTP and always get error "425 Can't open data connection" after 10 seconds on my FileZilla server. I use NET library 1.11 and have tried both PassiveMode = True and PassiveMode = False. Anyone a solution?

Code:
Dim oFTP As FTP
File.WriteString(File.DirInternal,"test.txt","xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx")
oFTP.Initialize( "FTP", ftp_servername , 21, username, password)
oFTP.PassiveMode = True -> (also tried False)
oFTP.UploadFile( File.DirInternal, "test.txt", True, "/test.txt")

Yes, connected via Wifi.
Haven't tried ListFiles, but DownloadFile gives same problem.

The problem is not just related to FileZilla. I get the same error with Bulletproof FTP Server, both 2007 version and the current version. Also with Ipswitch FTP server. BPFTP server which I have used for many years works fine with SwiFTP for Android when you set SwiFTP to Passive mode but when you set it to Active mode you get the 425 error. This makes me think the problem is with the Passive mode setting in the Basic4Android system.

Program Source:
Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
Activity.LoadLayout("Summary")
JobSummary.Initialize("JobSummary")
FTP.Initialize("FTP", "10.0.0.12", 21, "android", "androidftp")
FTP.PassiveMode=True

End Sub

Sub FTPDownload_Click
Dim files As List
If (FTP.IsInitialized) Then
FTP.DownloadFile("1.txt", False, File.DirInternal, "1.txt")
End If

End Sub

The IP address' I have used are: Windows XP Pro machine, Server 2008 machine internal address, same machine, external address.


FTP server is BulletProof FTP Server
Same error in Ipswitch FTP Server and FileZilla.
Fails with same error for Upload, Download, List.
Same error for SwiFTP in Active mode but SwiFTP in Passive mode works fine.

The PASV command doesn't show in the ftp server log like when you connect with AndFtp or Filezilla, so maybe the server don't get the command to get in passive mode.

In Activity_Create:

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
Activity.LoadLayout("modupd")
If FirstTime Then
Dim cInf As Cursor
cInf = main.Db.ExecQuery("Select _id, IpAddr, FtpLog, FtpPas, LasSen From Inf")
cInf.Position=0
xIpAddr = cInf.GetString("IpAddr")
xFtpLog = cInf.GetString("FtpLog")
xFtpPas = cInf.GetString("FtpPas")
FTP.PassiveMode=True
FTP.Initialize("FTP",xIpAddr,21,xFtpLog,xFtpPas)
End If
End Sub

And in the Button click:

Sub BtnUpd_Click
Dim p As Phone
Dim s As String
s=p.GetDataState
If p.GetDataState="CONNECTED" Then
File.Delete(File.DirRootExternal,"DbNew.db3")
Dim sDir As String
Dim tDir As String
sDir = "/" &xFtpLog& "/Update/DbNew.db3"
tDir = File.DirRootExternal &"/"
If FTP.IsInitialized = False Then
FTP.PassiveMode=True
FTP.Initialize("FTP",xIpAddr,21,xFtpLog,xFtpPas)
End If
FTP.DownloadFile(sDir, False, File.DirRootExternal,"DbNew.db3")
Else
Msgbox("Δεν υπάρχει σύνδεση","Πρόβλημα")
End If
End Sub

Found the problem....

The FTP.PassiveMode=True must be before the FTP.DownloadFile and not before the FTP.Initialize

It works fine now

Thank you for your replies and your patience

I have just downloaded the latest version as at 29/9/11 and can confirm the Passive parameter now appears to be working. Many thanks Erel.
