FTP Alternative PortSolved

It would be nice to be able to specify the port number for FTP. I am not suggesting that it need to support FTPS or SFTP, just a reassigned port number for FTP as part of the URI.

When I try this, if I use an IP address it says that the IP address is invalid. If I use a URL with a ftpserver.com:2121 alternative port it fails to connect. When I save the site and go back to edit it strips out the port.

That shouldn't happen. Thanks for spotting it. We'll have a fixed release in a few days.

So how is it going? I am just using FileZilla in the mean time, but thought I'd check in on it.

It should be out by Monday. We're fixing a few other bugs as well.

I've installed wyUpdate 2.2.1 and the FTP alternative port doesn't work. I am using IP x.x.x.x:21021 and the test connect under edit fails the validation on the IP address being valid. If I use a hostname corresponding ftp.sitename.net:21021 it fails to connect with a "no data of the requested type is found" error. If I save the settings and attempt an upload anyway, I fail with a user can't login (530 error) for both the IP or hostname using an alternative port.

You're right, I should have written better unit tests. Version 2.2.2 is out. I apologize for the delay.

Thanks for the quick attention. It works. Good job. Thanks.

Is it fixed as of now? I am still not able to see the ftps support

wyBuild supports uploading to both FTP & SFTP sites and wyUpdate supports downloads from HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, FILE sites.

We don't plan to add FTPS upload support because FTP and SFTP are so much more widely used. If you need to upload to FTPS sites then get either cyberduck or FileZilla and upload the files manually.
