[twsocket] FPiette V2.108 vs Overbyte V7.07 - FTP Client
Every time I upgrade from the old FPiette software to any of the Overbyte versions I have been experiencing the occasional problem. I cannot reproduce the problem in the office, but customers report odd effects. Each time the finger starts to point to the FTP component. Bear in mind that the customers network environment is much more complex than my simple arrangement. The application basically sends a LIST command to the server every 3 seconds and depending upon what comes back, there may be various RETR commands. So my question to anybody in the know is this: Is there any fundamental difference in the way these two FTPClient components work? Maybe regarding error handling, network timeouts etc. Now that the development has moved on to Delphi 2010, I seem to be forced into the Overbyte V7.07 components Any clues much appreciated.

Every time I upgrade from the old FPiette software to any of the Overbyte versions I have been experiencing the occasional problem. What problem? You need to supply detailed logs showing the specific component versions being used, commands sent and received and the errors. the application basically sends a LIST command to the server every 3 seconds Not a good idea to poll a server in this way, some firewalls and routers may get upset by continual short connections. I had a cheap Netgear router a long time ago that broke repeated LIST commands. This is one reason I added the FTP CMLSD command to avoid short data connections. So my question to anybody in the know is this: Is there any fundamental difference in the way these two FTPClient components work? No. I've had every different version of the FTP client and server components in use daily for several years, with no long term 'occasional problems'. There may have been short term problems in new beta versions which were fixed within a few days.

These are basically the same components. What you name Overbyte versions is ICS-V6 and ICS-V7 where the unit names has been prefixed by OverbyteIcs. Of course there where evolutions, but basically the component are fundamentally identicals. As Angus said, please provide a diagnostic. Saying you have occasional problems do not permit anyone to help you. The component are very stable so it is likely an external problem. -- francois.pie...@overbyte.be The author of the freeware multi-tier middleware MidWare The author of the freeware Internet Component Suite (ICS) http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
[twsocket] Violation Error on FTP Server V5
Hi, I use the V5 ICS package 1.52. I've a timer which checks all 15 seconds that there are not a time out on client to kill it. And In this procedure , I had a violation error aleatory. I used V1.47 ICS. So I've compiled with 1.52 but I don't know yet if the problem is solved or not. In this procedure, when the timeout expired, I launch a postmessage to kill the inactive client so that: PostMessage(ftpserveur.Handle, WM_FTPSRV_CLOSE_REQUEST, WPARAM(ftpserveur.Client[I].ID),LPARAM(ftpserveur.Client[I])); But after this postmessage, my code doesn't pass in OnclientDisconnect event. It's hard to test because it's aleatory. I've the same case when I receive a QUIT command. I do nothing but my code doesn't pass in OnclientDisconnect event. It's also aleatory. Have you got an idea , please ? Maybe in the first case, I can replace postmessage by client.closedelayed ? I'm sorry but for the time being, I can't compile whit V7. Thanks.
