Sent.
Also You may already know this but you get an unhandled exception if the folders selected don't exist both ways.

Yeah what I meant is that I now need one more dollar to get the domain :buddy:
Also, for some reason I do NOT receive donations sent through the sourceforge page, so send them directly to my email instead!

Sent you another dollar now get that domain!
Now I wait and see how much the overdrawn fee is.

$5 a day. Worth it.

Thanks a lot man, really appreciated! I'll get that domain and start working on a website for this project :buddy:

I just bought ftpbox.org
thanks again for the donation!
Lovely idea, too bad the only ftp I have access too is the ftp of my webhost , and I think I have like 1gb space on that :saddowns:. Besides: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5483751/photos/2011-05-31_2042.png[/img]
Amazing! Just what I always wanted since I heard of dropbox. Hey, if you need hosting I can host the webpage for you.

Thanks a lot, though my current host expires in about 6 months, so we'll see then...
Just release the source, even if beta, so we can help you with bugs :D

Uhm, how would that work exactly?

Unless you have a SVN server, not much.
But doesn't Google offer a free SVN server for open source projects??

I might be mixing things up though.

I'll check that out tomorrow and see what I can do.
I might also release the source along with the next release of FTPbox, as many people have requested it.. It's well documented and all already but I'll have to remove some parts too...

[url]http://code.google.com/hosting/createProject[/url] was what van-man was talking about
This is a really nice idea.
I went to try it out and ran into an issue, after connecting to my FTP it failed to display the Treelist of files/folders.
I'm just taking a random guess and saying it might be because several of my directories start with a ".".
This may or may not help, but these are the details.
[code]System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at FTPbox.fNewDir.treeView1_AfterExpand(Object sender, TreeViewEventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.TreeView.OnAfterExpand(TreeViewEventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.TreeView.TvnExpanded(NMTREEVIEW* nmtv)

at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)
[/code]
And after I tried to expand one of the dirs that worked, it said "421 Timeout - try typing a little faster next time"
And a "feature request", whenever it fails to connect, it closes the old form containing the information and opens a new one. Could you make it keep the same information such as the host and username?
[b]EDIT:[/b]
My fault. I hadn't told it to use a "Local Folder" yet, but I guess you could still consider that a bug. It's displaying the directories fine now.

The folder is 100% there, with 777 permissions. It will work if I put it in public_ftp and it's subdirectories, and public_html, but no subdirectories of that.

Uhm, something doesn't make much sense... I'll add you on steam so you can tell me more.
Great app, when it works.
Has a lot of potential.
I was just looking for something like this, very nice

Err.
Sorry for being thick, What do I put in Host

The IP of your FTP..
And port for that matter
[editline]1st June 2011[/editline]
Oh, I've completly missunderstood what this is
Whoo. No more middle-man.
BTW when you fix the subdir problem and other problems, add sftp support.
[QUOTE=mobrockers2;30168222]The IP of your FTP..[/QUOTE]
Could also be the main domain of your host...
[QUOTE=johan_sm;30173766]BTW when you fix the subdir problem and other problems, add sftp support.[/QUOTE]
SFTP support is already in the to-do list :buddy:
Looks interesting.

Domain resolves to the ip, so the ip of your host/ftp...
I'm still confused on how I'm suppose to use this. "New document.txt has been deleted" and it's still there. :psyduck:

Yeah turns out there's a problem with files that have spaces in them, for some reason...
Sorry for the bugs, but don't forget that it's still a beta. Bugs are supposed to exist...
Btw I am working on fixing anything reported so far, I'll most likely make a new release till the end of the week!

You don't need source control to submit patches, you know...
EDIT: John, you should REALLY be more careful when you code. There's no way all these exceptions should be popping up, unless they're in some error box you made yourself (and even then...)

I would love one of those SVN thingies, so we could go and hack away at the code! Would be pretty awesome :)
