FTP Mount no-longer uploading large files on OS4.1 Final Edition?

I've been trying to upload a large (10MB) file to Aminet, OS4Depot & my own web server using FTP Mount, and in all cases it's freezing-up once it's uploaded 3.5MB or less.

Strangely I can still upload fine to my local PC via FTP (usually!), so it may be some kind of race condition in FTP Mount that's triggered by slow data transfer & OS4.1 FE timings...

Can anyone else confirm this behaviour?

NetSurf is 5.5MB and I uploaded that to Aminet back in March, using OS4.1FE and FTPMount.

AmiFTP, pFTP?

I have not tried SFTP, AmiFTP, nor pFTP, but I assume they do not provide a virtual AmigaDOS volume that can be accessed with an AmigaDOS script/etc?

I guess I might have to upload via FTP manually (using one of those programs), but would prefer scripting it if possible...

The plain "ftp" command can be scripted by redirecting STDIN using <. You might need to make sure that the script doesn't exit while uploading (i.e ftp doesn't encounter EOF with STDIN), as that could cause the program to abort.

If you want scripting support for FTP access, then try perl.

An example I'm using to put a single file to my postscript printer via ftp.

#!perl -w

#
# Minimal script to put a single file to printer (or any ftp server!
#
use strict;
use net::FTP;
use File::Basename;

#
# Configuration options
#

my $printerdomain = "printer";
my $username = "anon";
my $password = "bar";

#
# Usage
#

die "Usage $0 <filetoprint>\n" unless $#ARGV == 0;

my $filetoprint = $ARGV[0];


#
# Connect to printer
#

my $ftp = Net::FTP->new($printerdomain,Timeout => 600) or die "Can't connect to $printerdomain";

$ftp->login($username,$password) or die "Can't login ", $ftp->message;

#
# Defintely a good idea to use binary here
#

$ftp->binary();

my ($dir,$basename,$suffix) = File::Basename::fileparse($filetoprint);

$ftp->put($filetoprint,$basename);

$ftp->close();

print $ftp->message;


AS to FTPMount: I haven't used it for quite a while, but it worked last I tried it, are yoiu sure no config options got overwritten when you upgraded to FE? Infact I just uploaded a 36 Mb file to my website with FTP: so it works for me.

If you use Dopus5 you could knock up an arexx script to use it's FTP or as I have done, create a button to login and open a lister.

Add the ftp details to the ftp address book then use:

[command] ftpconnect site (name in address book) eg.

FTPConnect site Aminet

you could add some lines after that to copy the files.

This new(ish) utility looks like exactly what I was looking for:
http://os4depot.net/index.php?functio ... le=network/ftp/upload.lha

It's worked on 1 of my FTP sites, and failed on another one. Sadly no output at all, so hard to tell what's going on, how far it has got uploading, or why it got stuck.

I assume it will work on OS4depot (as that is the example the docs use) and Aminet, in which case it will solve most of my FTP upload problems... Actually it's not perfect, since I'd like to have the option for the target filename to be different from the source filename.

The author appears to be Tuomas Hokka... Anyone know how to contact him?
