Hi all,

I'm trying to retrieve a file from a MS FTP server with Ant1.6.0.  I'm using JDK1.3.1 and commons-net-1.1.0.jar.  My target is as follows:

        <target name="retrieve_content" description="retrieves content from FTP box">
                <ftp action="get" server="${ftp_server}" userid="${ftp_username}" 
password="${ftp_password}" remotedir="${ftp_remotedir}">
                        <fileset dir="${content.download.dir}">
                                <include name="test.zip"/>
                        </fileset>
                </ftp>
        </target>
The "ls -l" format is:
02-05-04  04:18PM              5330144 test.zip
01-12-04  10:10AM              5326962 test1.zip
02-03-04  03:39PM             41314968 test2.zip
Trying both a "get" and a "list" produces the following (verbose) output (ie. 0 files 
listed):
retrieve_content:
     [ftp] Opening FTP connection to xxx.xxxx.xxx
     [ftp] connected
     [ftp] logging in to FTP server
     [ftp] login succeeded
     [ftp] changing the remote directory
     [ftp] listing files
     [ftp] 0 files listed
     [ftp] disconnecting
It seems that the problem is something to do with the parsing of the file listings, as I've confirmed I am connecting properly, and navigating to the correct remote dir.  I've also confirmed that the target works on a Unix FTP server.  I read one posting suggesting that there is a flag that can be set for MS FTP servers?  Any ideas on how I can get this task to with MS FTP would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Hi Matt,
I think that there are some problems with the MS FTP server and the ant 
task and commons-net at the moment.
