Hi, is there a change to distinguish an incomplete transfer and a complete one on server side, generally? <http://dict.leo.org/ende/index_de.html#/search=distinguish&searchLoc=0&resultOrder=basic&multiwordShowSingle=on>As far as I know a ftp client opens the data channel for uploading a file (passiv mode).
The ftp client signals the end of data transfer by closing the data channel.
But there is no check, if the file is complete!!!

Some ftp clients like filezilla support to abort an active file transfer by just closing the data channel.

So there is no chance to distinguish an incomplete transfer and a complete one on server side, am I right?

For that reason you need an additional acknowledgment from the client.
For example the client could transfer a file with extentsion '.tmp' an rename it, if it's transfered completely.
Right?

I saw there is an example to download files from database using FTPlet.
In features says it can be configured to store either in filesystem and in

There are standard configuration to store in database, or should all be
implemented based on FTPlets?
Is there complete example for all-in-database based FTP server?
For such a thing, a custom file system in FtpServer is likely a better
option. Should be fairly straight forward if you don't have any odd
requirements on the schema.
