Question:

OpenVMS - CkFtp2.get_NumFilesAndDirs returns 0

Mar 22 '13 at 10:06

When I call get_NumFilesAndDirs() on an OpenVMS server it returns 0 (no files/subdirs found). Immediately after this call, I print the lastErrorText:

I know there are 2 files in this directory (checked with filezilla), but CkFtp2 doesn't see them somehow. At the bottom you can see the session log (with the LIST result showing 2 files). Is there some special setting I need to use for OpenVMS? If needed I can send you the login-details for a test account.

Thanks Gert! I'm pretty sure this was fixed about a week ago. I'll send a new download link for the v9.4.1 pre-release, but at this moment the CkZip functionality within the v9.4.1 pre-release is still under "road construction".
