FTP Connection Information

Does anyone know where on the local machine the
FTP/Connection Key username and password is stored for the ftp
connection information?
Using Contribute 3.11 on Windows.
Many thanks for any help.

I think this info will be encrypted, so when you know where
it's stored you cannot use it. Why are you looking for this? You
can contact you ISP if you lost these data and create a new
connection (if you connected using a key) or edit your connection
(if you created the connection yourself).

IE7 causes DW8 to forget FTP Connection information

Both the beta versions and final of IE7 cause my Dreamweaver
install to forget the FTP Connection information, and then refuse
to remember any of them again. Uninstalling IE7 remedies the
problem. Anyone else experience this?

See if this helps:

Securing your remote connection information.

Hello folks,
Recently I had a security break in which a trojan virus uploaded malicious software to all of the sites I have hosted along with viruses to some sites I do not host, but had ftp connection information stored within both Cute FTP Pro and Dreamweaver CS4. This was one hell of a mess to clean up, bascially giving all of my hosting accounts new passwords, deleting all files currently online and re-uploading them to ensure the virus was eliminated completely. Upon researching this further, and discussing it with my hosting reseller technical support, they informed me that usually this type of trojan infects a local machineand transmits the virus by stealing the ftp login information from an ftp enabled program, downloading the file to be infected from the site, modifying it and re-uploading it to the site.
I have decided that storing my ftp login information within these programs is probably not safe and have resorted to just inputting the information (or just the password at the least) each time that I need to make changes to the site.
I guess what I am asking is what should I be doing to ensure that this sort of thing does not happen again?

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
From your description it seems you have check every possible solution for this case. For here suggest you to recheck whether there is proper network connectivity without any packet loss.
Apart, when you are using RDP file before that edit the RDP file with notepad and add following line under it.

Need help to Configure FTPS connection for File Sender Adapter

Hi,
I want to Configure, FTPS connection (Secured Connection) for File Sender Adapter. Could anyone please guide me, what Information I require to configure. I just want to know what Information should I request the team inorder the configure FTPS so that it can be deployed properly.
I have checked with [SAP Help Link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/e3/94007075cae04f930cc4c034e411e1/content.htm] and while configuring the communication channel found that I need Keystore and the X.509 Certificate and Private Key. which needs to be deployed on the J2EE server by using the Visual Administrator.
Is there anything else, I need to configure.
Any help would be appreciated in this regard.
Thanks & Regards,
Varun.K

The basic things are Certificate/Keys which you already know. Usually it is enough for running a sceanrio.
However, if you have additional requirements, like FTPS for "Connection Security" for encryption, then you may need additional details like commands. Rest all settings are same as FTP.

ABAP to FTP connect to non SAP UNIX system

Greetings~
I'm looking for a way (via function modules and/or BAPI) to transfer data in flat files from an SAP UNIX system to a non-SAP UNIX system using an ABAP program. I see FM's FTP_CONNECT and FTP_COMMAND however these seem to only work with UNIX systems running SAP as they require RFC_DESTINATION information. Anybody know which (if any) FM's can be used without the necessity of the target system running SAP/RFC?
Thanks!

FTP connection in J2ME

Hi All,
can anyone tell me is FTP connection in J2ME possible or not? If it is possible, how it is possible?
Mahabub

AFAIK at present there is no FTP API's avalable from J2ME/MIDP front that you can use to establish an FTP connection.
Meanwhile I have a pretty easier solution for you. You can use Jakarta Commons Net API's at the App server end to communicate to the intended FTP server by means of Servlet so that you can form an Http response as per your requirements. for e.g.:- you issue ftp command from J2ME client and pass it over http to the Servlet residing in your app server. internally the web-tier component establishes the link to the FTP server and responds appropriately based on the issued commands.
You can also use a telnet client that uses socket communications but the approach mentioned above I rekon would be a feasible one bcause the Usability matters the most when it comes to Mobile applications.
Hope this information helps.

FTP Connection Issue in Dreamweaver CS4

I just reinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and of course had to reinstall Design Premium CS4. Up until now Dreamweaver CS4 (Version 10.0 Build 4117) has connected to ftp flawlessly, however ever since I reinstalled I have been receiving the "An FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to host. The remote host cannot be found" error message.
What I have tried so far:
I have double checked that my login information is correct
I have successfully logged in to the ftp server using another ftp client and through a browser
Through Dreamweaver I have tried using passive FTP, secure FTP, firewall and none of those settings make a difference.
I receive the error message whether I click "test" or try to connect through the files panel .
I have checked my firewall settings and Dreamweaver is an allowed program.
I don't have access to another ftp server to check if would work in that situation.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Dreamweaver and the entire suite.
Is there anything else that I need to do?
Thanks in advance for any help.

This is a maddening issue that's getting press in various forums, here and on Adobe's site, and all sorts of third party blogs, etc. I spent days wrestling with this with no luck, because in CS3, which I"ve been using for years under OS X, Extension Manager is broken (under Mountain Lion, at least). Installed CS4, CS5—nothing worked. The ""can't connect" error message appears instantly, suggesting that DW wasn't even trying to make the FTP connection, which led me to suspect Little Snitch or some other firewall issue, but this wasn't the case. I isolated login items, repaired permissions, booted in Safe Mode—all with no luck. Finally, I tried opening DW from a different user login and FTP connected. This, at least in my case, pointed to something in the user folder. I narrowed it down to the User/Library folder. Creating a new user and copying the Library folder over copied over the problem, as expected. New user was deleted, and I wen tinto the troublemaking User/Library folder to see what I could see. There were old files and folders there from previous installs, including CS3—speciifically in the User/Library/Application Support folder and, of course, in User/Library/Preferences. After deleting thiese, I found no further problems connecting via FTP in DW CS4. I presume that CS5 also would connect now, but I'm not keen to put it to the test. Under CS4, Extension Manager works fine, which is what I was looking to accomplish in upgrading from CS3. Moral of the story: Adobe CS installations do not like legacy files and folder either in User/Library/Application Support or User/Library/Preferences. Deleting these may work for you, too—at least it's another string to the troubleshooting bow, and this one can be a real bear. Good luck to all who have run into this.

FTP Connection Problem with DW CS3

Someone gave me some FTP info to use to connect to their
server and I have never seen FTP info like this nor can I figure
out how to get DW CS3 to connect to it. I can connect to the site
using an FTP program like Filezilla, but can't seem to find the
settings to get it to work in Dreamweaver. Any thoughts would be
appreciated. Here is the example of the info...
ftp://www.mysite.com:20
User Name: User
Password: Mypassword
That is all the info they gave. I think the ":20" is the port
number on their server, but I can't figure out how to use that in
Dreamweaver. I have tried getting rid of it and also just using
mysite.com as the FTP. None of those work. Any ideas how to use
this to connect?

Connection problem - no ftp connection

It is hard to use Dreamweaver, when the FTP connection seems to have been erased. Has anyone experienced this?

Hello,
many of the people here use the DW integrated FTP function.
There this should work: Site->Manage Sites. Select your site and click Edit. Use wizard on the "How do you connect to your remote server?" question to select FTP. Insert your FTP login information and test the connection. Now you should be able to upload your site. > Look to your files panel. Use Up arrow to upload files to your server. You naturally need all the data here to access the server.
In addition, I'll quote a hint from Nancy O.:
Try toggling Passive and/or Secure FTP on/off.
Your web host might have changed upload requirements to improve security.
Another thing to check is your Anti-virus and Firewall settings. If they are too restrictive, DW may not have permission to connect to the remote server.
Some here have difficulties, so perhaps it is worth to go a different way. It's well known, that in all these cases you describe I'm not a friend of a detailed troubleshooting. To be able to be independent in all this things It is one of the reasons why I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
To manage several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
http://filezilla-project.org/ and http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
Mac: Mac OS X (Use: Show additional download options)
http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server and for MIME issues, you should contact your web host/provider.
Good luck!
Hans-Günter
P.S.
Since I use two screens, the whole thing became even more comfortable.

FTP connection possible with J2ME?

Hi all,
Does anybody if it is possible to make an FTP connection for a J2ME midlet (like you would make an http connection). If so, how can I do this and where could I find some information about this?
Kind regards

In MIDP 1.0, only HTTP support is required. With only HTTP, you could set up a custom proxy (which could be a Java servlet, CGI script, etc.) that does FTP on behalf of the client. So the client would make an HTTP request to, say, http://www.example.com/ftpProxy?url=ftp%3A%2F%2Fftp.example.com%2Ffoo%2Fbar, and the server-side ftpProxy program would fetch and return the specified FTP URL.
Some phones support raw sockets, in which case a proxy wouldn't be needed and you could implement FTP yourself (by reading the appropriate RFC). But this wouldn't be very portable as there are J2ME MIDP phones that only support HTTP.

Contribute cannot verify your connection information... Please notify your administrator."

After a initial network error last night, The Shared Settings
file was zapped. Contribute decided I was no longer the Admin, and
the Editor's connection also disappered.
I found the note that's pasted here, in the Contribute
Forums.
"connect to your server (using 3rd party ftp client) and
delete the _mm folder located on the root of the website - recreate
your connections and that should solve the issue"
I deleted the _mm folder. When I tried creating the
connection anew, contribute said, "Contribute cannot verify your
connection information... home/justandpeacefu/html/. Please notify
your administrator." Now it's the same error every time. I am
unable to make the new _mm folder.
Contribute Tech support sent me an email which didn't help.
It's at the very bottom.
Items 1-4 in the email are not the problem.
I am able to connect to the server, after the tech support
person reset something there.
I can make folders, and pages in FTP application;
there are no special characters;
permissions are fine;
Item 5 did not have any effect. I turned off Apple's personal
firewall, quit contribute, and tried again. Unsuccessful. Same
error.
ANY SUGGESTIONS, ANYONE?
Text from Tech Support:
As we have discussed on the phone earlier today, here are
common causes of getting a "cannot verify connection information"
when creating a connection in Contribute:
1. Not enough permissions on the root of the website - Make
sure you have enough permissions on the root of the website. Using
third party FTP software, verify that you are able to create
folders, upload and rename files, and delete files on the root of
the website.
2. There are special characters on the folder name of the
folder you are trying to connect to - Avoid special characters as
Contribute is not so compatible with them.
3. Incompatible FTP connection settings: When you are asked
to enter your FTP account information in the connection wizard,
click the advanced button. Make sure that the only options selected
are: "Choose FTP Server Settings Manually" and "Use Passive FTP to
connect to the server".
4. Verify that the FTP server is pointing to your web server.
Example: upload any temporary HTML file on the root of your
website; when you visit the URL:
http://[your_server
you should see the page render; You should not get a "Page cannot
be found".
5. Turn off any software firewall / antivirus running on the
background to isolate possibly conflicting processes.

I'm having the same problem as andres in the original post,
the message comes up when trying to Continue out of the "Remote
Path Info" box. I am able to browse to the location so Contribute
does know its there. This is with Contribute 4 on Mac OS X
connecting to a Linux server.
I manually ran the FTP connection tests via command line:
http://store1.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19496
and all tests passed successfully
I also downloaded and ran FTP Connection Checker (on my
Windows machine) at:
http://store1.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19012
and passed all tests successfully.
The wording with these tests imply that they are the same
tests run by Contribute, i doubt that to be the case since these
pass but Contribute fails.
I have tried this with the site root and _mm folder set to
permissions of 777 with no luck. I am able to connect and edit
successfully with Dreamweaver and FTP with Transmit (Mac OS X).
I'm about out of things to try and my deadline to train the
client is coming up. Any further insight on this would sure be
appreciated!

Unable to retrieve inbound EDI X12 transactions from VAN using FTPS connect

When out B2B process is polling we do not seeing any attempts to connect to the ftp site. We have no problems putting EDI outbound transactions to the VAN with the same connection, but never see an attempt to get transactions. We enabled the transport trace logging, but are not seeing any connection information in this log file nor in the b2b.log file. Why would we be able to put files to the VAN but not pick up files with the same connection information?

If you enable the transport trace in tip.properties, you will see a log similar to the following:
TransportProperties.TransportProperties():http.receiver.instance_name=IP;PROTOCOL_ENDPOINT=null;file.receiver.password=******;file.receiver.wallet_location=C:\temp/ewallet.p12;file.receiver.user=ekhor;file.receiver.polling_interval=60;polling_interval=60;file.receiver.channel_mask=None;smtp.receiver.protocol=imap;file.sender.channel_mask=None;http.receiver.registry_port=5110;

If you also want to display the password in transport.log (masked by ****** above)
you need to also set
oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.passwordTrace = true
It is possible to have the outbound FTP/S working while the inbound FTP/S is not. The reason is due to different configuration of delivery channels. In the outbound case, B2B uses the remote trading partner delivery channel information to login and to drop the file whereas B2B uses the host delivery channel information to login and to poll whether there are any files in the FTP/S server.
Please verify again that your host delivery channel and tip.properties settings are correct.

Adding a site to a ftp connection

Hi,
Just upgraded to DW CS4 and in doing so I pressed a wrong
button...!
I have numerous sites in my site manager window and one I am
working on has reverted to being nothing more than an ftp
connection. This was my fault as I went back into the set-up window
for the site (edit site) and made it an ftp connection only, rather
than a full site with connections to local folders as well as
remote connections.
Problem is, now on the site manager list the icon has changed
from the folder with the name of the site to the ftp//sitename here
icon and I have no idea how to get it back so I have access to my
local folder.
Any help?
Thanks,
SunsV

There really isn't any way to go back from that choice.
so- Make a New site definition and pick "site" and not "RDS"

Performance Issue when setting connection information

I am writing a Winforms application using VB.NET
I have developed a method that sets the Crystal Reports Connection.
This method first grabs the connection string from the config file creates a Crystal Reports ConnectionInfo object.
The following code then takes over 5 seconds to run:
Dim myTables As Tables = report.Database.Tables
Dim myTableLogonInfo As TableLogOnInfo = New TableLogOnInfo()
myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo = myConnectionInfo
Then this code takes over 6 seconds to run:
For Each myTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In myTables
myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(myTableLogonInfo)
    myTable.LogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName
    myTable.LogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName
    myTable.LogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID = myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID
    myTable.LogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password = myTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password
Next
This only occurs the first time that the form is loaded, the subsequent times it is
335ms (as compared to 5349ms) and 52ms (as compared to 6228ms)
However, when the application is reloaded the same slow times re-occur.
There are not many different tables in my report generally 3 or less. Only 1 table in this case.
This is currently in test and VS2008 and SQLServer2005 are both running locally. The same issue does occur in the QA environment as well, where the application is run on the client and the database is on a server on the same LAN.
So my question is, can I improve the speed of this portion of code? Why does it take so long to set the report connection information? Am I doing connections to the report incorrectly?
Any ideas?
Thanks,

This is an expected behavior. First time the code is run, the app loads all the CR runtime; assemblies, dlls, COM dlls, etc., etc. Once these are in memory, the performance improves significantly.
