Android Question trying to use FTP but my code is in error

[tsteward]

I have created a new project and basically copied code from this site.
As much as I go over it and search here I can't see what I am doing wrong.
Line 42 is constantly underlined in red with this error.

Error occurred on line: 42
Dim tmp As Object = ftp.UploadFile(File.DirDefaultExternal, "some.jpg", False, "/LaraImages/uploads/")
Word: )

Hi

Dim tmp As Object = ftp.UploadFile(File.DirDefaultExternal, "some.jpg", False, "/LaraImages/uploads/")

Its not correct... you can try:

Dim tmp As ResumableSub = ftp.UploadFile(File.DirDefaultExternal, "some.jpg", False, "/LaraImages/uploads/")

 

[TILogistic]

Dim tmp As Object = ftp.UploadFile (File.DirDefaultExternal, "some.jpg", False, "/LaraImages/uploads/some.jpg")

Dim tmp As ResumableSub = ftp.UploadFile (File.DirDefaultExternal, "some.jpg", False, "/LaraImages/uploads/some.jpg")

see:

Ftp.uploadFile

Hi to all This routine returns a java.lang.RuntimeException: Error uploading file. 550 /test/: Not a regular file I can't understand why, if I send it with filezilla there is no problem Can anyone give me a tip? Thank's Sub SaveConfig kvs.Initialize( xui.DefaultFolder,"test.ini")...

Still underlined in red saying "Cannot assign void value."

It should be like this

Sub Activity_Resume
    Try
        
        FTP.UploadFile(File.DirRootExternal, "1.wav", False, "11.wav")
    Catch
        Log(LastException)
    End Try

End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)

End Sub

Sub FTP_UploadProgress (ServerPath As String, TotalUploaded As Long, Total As Long)
    
    Try
    
        Dim s As String
        s = "Uploaded " & Round(TotalUploaded / 1000) & "KB"
        If Total > 0 Then s = s & " out of " & Round(Total / 1000) & "KB"
        Log(s)
    
    Catch
        Log(LastException)
    End Try
    
End Sub

Sub FTP_UploadCompleted (ServerPath As String, Success As Boolean)
    
    Try
        Log(ServerPath & ", Success=" & Success)
        If Success = False Then
            Log(LastException.Message)
        End If
    Catch
        Log(LastException)
    End Try
    
    
End Sub

As you can see we are getting FTP result in a separate event FTP_UploadCompleted

ok thank you thats progress.
I am getting the following error and idea why?
(GaiException) android.system.GaiException: android_getaddrinfo failed: EAI_NODATA (No address associated with hostname)

 

[edgar_ortiz]

Check:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions...-url-here-no-address-associated-with-hostname

I recommend using "cuteftp", make the necessary configuration for it to work.

And then you use that information in your app

 

[tsteward]

Yeah got most of the info out of filezilla.
New error now

(RuntimeException) java.lang.RuntimeException: Error uploading file.
550 /1089-2542.jpg: Permission denied

 

[tsteward]

SOLVED - Thank you
My problem was first invalid hots name
Then 550 error was invalid path to save the file

All sorted and thank you all once again
