FlashFXP skipping subdirs

JensB · 03-04-2002, 09:36 PM

When I queue up a dir with multiple subdirs locally for upload .. Flashfxp just skips all of the subdirs without even enetering them ... just like a Skip Emtpy Dirs ... but they are not empty ...

If I queue the individual subdirs too , then it transfers no problem at all ...

running 1.4.3 b835 ...had the same error on 831 though ...

anybody else seen this ?

Which OS are you using? It works flawless for me under win2k

Linkster · 03-04-2002, 11:22 PM

check your skiplist to make sure nothing weird is in there.

Just to test it out, along with the thing that bigstar asked ... I would also suggest turing the skip list off, and see if it still has the same problem.

If it doesnt, then you have something in the skip list you shouldnt.

If it does still have the same problem, then we can go from there.

ok , will experiment tonite and post result ..

JensB · 03-05-2002, 11:16 PM

OK .. happens when I upload from loacl hdd to server.

ItÂ´s a skiplist prob alright ... does not happen if I disable skiplist ..

And itÂ´s the "Skip 0 byte files" setting that is the culprit ..

My test is this :

I have a dir /test22/ . inside it is only another dir /testul21/ .

in /testul21/ there is a .sfv and 4 small files ... total 18k ..

If I set the top dir /test22/ for upload ... I get this :

Skipping: testul21
Transfer queue completed
Skipped 1 file

if I on the other hand disable "Skip 0 byte files" the whole transfer goes ahead no probs at all ..

then I tried to put the same files that are in /testul21/ in /test22/ too ...

ie same dir structure, but an sfv and 4 small files in both dirs ..

same here if I disable "Skip 0 byte files" the qhole dir structure is transfered .. see below ...

Now I might be completly wrong here ... but "Skip 0 byte files" casuing FlashFXP to skip subdirs seems kinda strange donÂ´t you think ?

PS. IP:s changed in the log section above)

Which OS are you using?

I did some tests and the only instance where the empty dir is skipped is when "skip empty directories" is checked. the state of "Skip 0 byte files" doesn't have any effect.

JensB · 03-06-2002, 12:49 AM

the problem is .. the skipped dir wasnÂ´t empty ....

IÂ´m using Win2K SP2 ..

I have all the skiplist options enabled ... but its the SKIP 0BYTE FILES that generates the error ...

this might be in conjunction with the SKIP EMPTY DIRECTORIES though .,.. since the log looks like an ordinary skip empty dirs ..

JensB · 03-06-2002, 05:27 PM

any chance u can send me a debug ver ...?

so u can see a complete log on wtf is going on ...

cause I donÂ´t understand it

bigstar · 03-06-2002, 07:38 PM

Sorry I read your post incorrectly

Quote:

I have a dir /test22/ . inside it is only another dir /testul21/ .
in /testul21/ there is a .sfv and 4 small files ... total 18k ..

I thought /testul22/ was inside of /testul21/ .. Damn dyslexia....

I redid my tests today trying different options and it works every time.

I can't explain why in your case the folder would be skipped. I can't send you a debug version right now because there is no debug code related to this. plus I am in the middle implementing SSL into FlashFXP.

Once I'm finished (week or two?) I'll be happy to add some debug messages, although I'm not even 100% sure what messages to add or where to place them.

Can anyone else reproduce the problem?

JensB · 03-06-2002, 07:59 PM

ok, no biggie

just irritating a shell when i wanna ul a dir tree

i can wait .. SSL is way more important

Fusion · 03-07-2002, 02:07 AM

JensB, what are your skiplist rules?

It seems obvious to me that what happens to you is that the testul22-dir gets transferred because it is manually queued, while the testul21 is skipped based on the rules because it is an automatic transfer.

Do a quick test by making another dir above thse two and but testul22 and testul21 inside it while maintaining the tree-levels.
If I'm right the top dir will get transferred while both testuls will get skipped this time, ie. they match one of your rules.

JensB · 03-07-2002, 05:39 AM

ya I figured so at first too ...

but the weird part is .. why do thet dirs pass the skip rules if I uncheck SKIP 0BYTE FILES ?

but as I said .. no biggie

there are other stuff more important to fix/add

IÂ´ll do some skiplist experimenting later ...

oh by the way .. hereÂ´s my skiplist ... if u see anything weird plz post a reply ..

Fusion · 03-07-2002, 07:22 AM

As I suspected. Any and all of the rules that start with . will match your dirs, it's a feature...

Surround them with * like the first and you should do better. As for the 0byte-files skip-check, it might be a wee bug, because most dirs are indeed 0byte.

bigstar · 03-07-2002, 02:36 PM

well actually all rules will match dirs if you have the option checked.

by not using a * FlashFXP will do an exact match, if that's what JenB wants then I don't see a problem with the current items.

My skiplist contains some exact matching items and it doesn't result in the same problem.

FlashFXP doesn't apply the 0 size rules to folders, however if FlashFXP were somehow detecting the folder as a file that could explain the problem.

Out of couriosity did you have this problem with older builds?
