Browse tab - function.ftp-mkdir fails

[Welly]

Hello,

I hope you'll understand my baaad english! (I'm french sorry^^).

I'm trying to configure the lastest version of RemoteCP4 on a remote http server. Everything is ok except the Browse tab.
I have a beautiful php error :

[PHP Warning] ftp_mkdir() [function.ftp-mkdir]: /tm_serv/GameData/Tracks/: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type on line 117 in file /homepages/24/d249523494/htdocs/remotecp/plugins/Browse/index.php[PHP Warning] ftp_mkdir() [function.ftp-mkdir]: /tm_serv/GameData/Tracks/Challenges/: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type on line 118 in file /homepages/24/d249523494/htdocs/remotecp/plugins/Browse/index.php[PHP Warning] ftp_mkdir() [function.ftp-mkdir]: /tm_serv/GameData/Tracks/MatchSettings/: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type on line 119 in file /homepages/24/d249523494/htdocs/remotecp/plugins/Browse/index.php

-> I think the ftp function of remotecp4 is unable to join or make directories in my "home ftp server" where is installed TMUF Dedicated Server...but I don't know why!


----------------------------------------------------
...Here are my servers configurations...
----------------------------------------------------
Home server:
TMUF Server: OK - Dedicated server only.
OS: Debian 5.0 Lenny.
FTP server (for a remote use of remotecp4): Proftpd. chmod 777 on : GameData - Config - Tracks - Matchsettings - Challenges. / wellever ftp homedir is: /home/wellever/...
Dedicated server directory: /home/wellever/tm_serv/...
Public IP address: tmunited.teambzh.com

Remote web server:
1and1.fr - teambzh.com
PHP version: 5.2.8
PHP infos: http://teambzh.com/info.php
Remotecp4: Everthing works except the ftp function.
The ftp function is enabled
directories and sub-directories XML & Cache are chmod 777

-----------------------------------------------------
...Here is my servers.xml configuration file...
-----------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</ftp>

<host>localhost</host>
<username>username</username>
<password>password</password>

</servers>

I really hope you could help and maybe show me how to configure it for my TM server me because this is a Great Tool!

Thanks a lot

That would be awesome

Thanks you in advance

Please Sascha, don't forget me!

[hal|Sascha]

Please Sascha, don't forget me!

sorry.
I took a deep look into your configuration settings, reading it multiple times, but can't find a error. I think its a possible bug in rcp or something with your ftp permission. Try to enable debugging inside the browse plugin (/plugins/Browse/index.php - there is a debug variable, just set it to true).

Hello,

Few days ago, I modified the permissions on the ftp server dans the TM dedicated server directories (chmod 777 to try.). But it doesn't work much better.

Yerterday, I modified the <ftp><path> </path> line for the value: "/home/wellever/tm_serv/Gamedata/Tracks". Now I can see new lines (Campains, Matchsettings...) but I'm not sure this is the right patch and I thought I could see an array or a list of the tracks into the directory.

May you take a look at my remotecp install?

URL: http://remotecp.teambzh.com
Please register and I'll activate your account.

Thanks.

[hal|Sascha]

registered

[Welly]

Thanks!

You're account is active now

Like I said in my last post: the <path> </path> value is actually: /home/wellever/tm_serv/Gamedata/Tracks/
This is the only way to make it works like actually. The browse tab is very "slow" and there are errors into "Matchsettings".

If you want I could send you a screenshot of the /home/wellever/ folders tree. And also give you the server.ini. There are no modifications into the Browse plugin files.

Thanks again for your help.

PS: Just a last question. What is the best to make it work? Remotely (like me) or Locally (same server used for TM Dedicated Server with apache2 and php5-cgi)

Would be nice if you could give my account permissions for the browser, can't see the problem

PS: Just a last question. What is the best to make it work? Remotely (like me) or Locally (same server used for TM Dedicated Server with apache2 and php5-cgi)

I think the local version of the browse plugin is much better tested and many times faster.

Ok sorry I forgot to give you some permissions.

Now you can! (Yes, you can! )

[hal|Sascha]

hum... looks like it works now


The array_key_exists error is a little bug not really a error, you can find a little fix for it in the pinned rcp 4.0.2.7 thread.
Only problem I experienced with your server was that the browser is horrible slow at first load. I will try to find a solution to speed up things a little bit for version 4.0.3.0

[Welly]

Ok thanks a lot for your help

But I can't explain why I had tu put the path /home/wellever/tm_serv/Gamedata/Tracks/ and no /tm_serv/Gamedata/Track or /Gamedata/Tracks.
When I manually connect to my ftp server with the same account used in RemoteCP, the default path is already /home/wellever/

I'll try to configure an apache2 server to install RemoteCP locally.

How do I remove the FTP passwords? I use internet explorer to access FTP to some servers. I once set all of them to "remember password", so it enters directly, and now I don't know how to remove those passwords. I want it to ask me the password every time I try to connect. How do I make internet explorer forget those passwords?? Thanks!
