Re: Using ftpupload.c returns a directory listing in HTML format

Thanks! >Because you didn't specify which protocol to use so libcurl guesses you meant HTTP and so it asked the server using >HTTP on port 80 and it returned data using HTML... So that explains the HTML-coding! Can the reason for the  error code for address "ftp://192.168.0.151/backup/ftptest/" be that I am working within my LAN? I am using a RaspberryPi to send messages to my archive, a Netgear NAS on my LAN. From command prompt on my Win7 PC I can start FTP on the archive with >ftp 192.168.0.151 whereas the ftp server asks for username etc. A "cd backup" displays a "backup>" prompt. A "dir" now lists my directory (without HTML coding, HI!) So my question: how to write REMOTE_URL string when working inside a LAN? I am at loss...

When I try with #define REMOTE_URL      "ftp://192.168.0.151/backup/ftptest/" I get error: curl_easy_perform() failed: URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL. That's strange. It looks like a perfectly fine URL to me. I can use command line access to the NAS... You mean command line curl? Then you can just add "--libcurl ftplist.c" to generate C code for your libcurl using application...
