[Bug 664424] Re: PUT unable to upload to server - Error Code 1
At least change the error message to say "File not found on server" or "File does not already exist on server"... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664424 Title: PUT unable to upload to server - Error Code 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tftp-hpa/+bug/664424/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 664424] Re: PUT unable to upload to server - Error Code 1
The default behaviour for tftpd is to not create new files, i.e. you can upload to an existing file location (as long as it has the correct permissions) but you can't create new files on the tftpd server. You can change this behaviour by adding the --create parameter to TFTP_OPTIONS in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa and amending the directory permissions on /var/lib/tftpboot. However you should do this with EXTREME CAUTION; this effectively allows any remote client to upload data with no authentication to your server which could create potential Denial of Service problems due to full file systems etc... I checked this in Lucid as well and this behaviour has not changed for Maverick. ** Changed in: tftp-hpa (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- PUT unable to upload to server - Error Code 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664424 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to tftp-hpa in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 664424] Re: PUT unable to upload to server - Error Code 1
Ok, it's not a bug. Thanks for the detailed description on how-to solve it. I plan to use the TFTP on LAN only, so there are no big risk of DOS. Can I somehow contribute/make this solution appear on a webpage, and have the description in synaptic point there ? We were 3 people at work testing on our computers, no-one got it working, and we ended up wondering why something this simple were so difficult. I hope the tftpd can somehow provide this information more clearly. Imagine those that install it, just to back up a cisco switch or Checkpoint firewall - then we need the server to receive files. -- PUT unable to upload to server - Error Code 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664424 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
