Multiple File Upload Problem

[Mohammed Abbas <mo...@netpiper.com>]

Hi All, 

Im truly bugged for time and I would really need some help. 
Part of my project requires me to use an FTP Client that can send sceheduled tasks to a FTP Server residing on my network. All went well when I tried using this operation on one file but now I having problems implemeting the same logic with multiple files (binary). Im using a Timer to schedule the events to a Timer Task that lists all the files in the directory and passes them FTP Client reference in the TimerTask. 
When Im getting is that when the task is handling one file it returns a FileTransfer OK (250) then a disconnection from the FTP Server and the program exits. Refering back to some logs using a different FTP Software the PORT Command is called after successive calls to the FTPServer and does so for until there are no files (I already tried simulating the scenario using the SocketClient APIs but Im still getting the same result.) 

Im initialising the FTPClient (connecting,validating connection then logging in + setting binary filetype --- already active mode). Then I'm passing storing the file using the store(String, FileInputStream) method. Im iterating the stor operation through a loop with no checks) 

1) Is this is the way that its supposed to be done? If not how then. 
2) Would it matter if I used the default Active mode instead of the Pasv mode. Which one is better programmatically. 
3) I cant find any samples for the multiple stor operation. Can someone please attach a some code samples for the multiple send. 

Thanks, 


<CODE>
for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
  synchronized (mScheduler) {
     try {
  	  String remoteFilePath = transfer.getRemoteDir() + "/" + files[i].getName();
	  //mScheduler.mFtpClient.port(java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost(), 51); 
	  java.io.FileInputStream stream = new java.io.FileInputStream(files[i].getPath());
	  mScheduler.mFtpClient.storeFile(files[i].getName(), stream);
	  stream.close();
	}
	catch (IOException ioe) {
	  ioe.printStackTrace();
	}
	catch (Exception e) {
	  e.printStackTrace();
	}
  }

}
</CODE>

Re: [net] Multiple File Upload Problem

[Martin Cooper <ma...@apache.org>]

You might have more luck with getting the right people to help you if you
indicate which Commons component you are using in the subject line, per this
list's convention. When I read the subject, I thought you were referring to
Commons FileUpload, but it looks like you're referring to Commons Net
instead.
