GitHub user rdubois-mel edited a discussion: Get File with FTP configuration
Hello, I don't understand how to configure the "Get File With FTP" action. Am I misconfiguring it, or is it buggy? Let me explain: I connect to an FTP server, change the remote directory, and enter a ".*" wildcard to retrieve everything in that folder. But according to the logs, it doesn't seem to actually change folders. ``` 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - test_ftp - Starting action [Get a file with FTP] 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - test_ftp - exec(1, 0, Get a file with FTP) 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - Starting action 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - Started FTP workflow to ftp.*******.fr 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - Start of FTP action 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - Opened FTP connection to server [ftp.*******.fr] 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - set passive ftp connection mode 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - set binary transfer mode 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - set timeout to 0 2025/05/20 11:45:46 - Get a file with FTP - set control encoding to UTF-8 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - logged in with user CITEO 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - Changed to directory [Finalisé] 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - Found 1 files (or folders) in the remote ftp directory 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - Analysing remote file [Finalisé] ... 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - We skip filename [Finalisé] because it is not a file! 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - ======================================= 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - Nr errors : 0 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - Nr files downloaded : 0 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - Get a file with FTP - ======================================= 2025/05/20 11:45:47 - test_ftp - Finished action [Get a file with FTP] (result=[true]) ``` It looks like it doesn't actually change folders and lists the root. The "Finalisé" directory does indeed exist on the FTP server and contains about ten XLSX files. I've tried several syntaxes for the remote directory: - /Finalisé - /Finalisé/ - Finalisé/ - ./Finalisé - ./Finalisé/ But I still get the same error. Out of spite, I tried a "Copy files" in vfs, but I ended up with a Class not found error. Have you ever managed to get this action to work by listing a subfolder? Thanks.
