Which function are you using? DownloadFile? Which function do you get the timeout on?

from fluentftp.

Unless you reply its impossible to fix this.

Hi,

I've just had this issue with the DeleteDirectory command.

from fluentftp.

@pbindy Can you share more details. Are there any files/folders in the dir you are trying to delete? Which server are you using? Azure has problems with timeouts...

from fluentftp.

Hi,

here is my code
if (FtpClient.DirectoryExists(folderPath)) FtpClient.DeleteDirectory(folderPath, true, true);

The folder has files in it, around 15.

I'm trying to transfer from a PC with Windows 10 to a coffee machine with Windows CE installed.

This issue is not reproducible every time. I had the issue twice in a row and then nothing.

What I did to fix it, I make sure that the folder is empty (delete all files in it) before calling DeleteDirectory.

from fluentftp.

I see you are using the older version of FluentFTP. Can you upgrade to latest on nuget and check if it works for you? Because DeleteDirectory() has totally changed in that time...

from fluentftp.

Ok I'll update to the latest version but there is definitely something happening with this DeleteDirectory method. (see #99 )

from fluentftp.

You don't need to delete the files in it first. Just call DeleteDirectory and see if its working good. Because we have switched to LIST command instead of machine listings and we are getting all files recursively, then deleting those files, then deleting the folder last. You should not have any problems.

from fluentftp.

I'll check it once again but I need to make a lot of testing before putting it in Production because it has to work 100% of the time.

from fluentftp.

I realized this just got closed 4 hours ago, But I just ran into this issue today. I updated to the latest version v17.3.0 and I am still getting this error message when attempting to us FTPS using the code provided here: https://github.com/hgupta9/FluentFTP#faq_ftps

from fluentftp.

@gjhdigital Okay, issue reopened. Which FTP server/OS are you using? or which host?

from fluentftp.

nevermind, wrong protocol.

from fluentftp.

@gjhdigital What was the solution so others can know?

from fluentftp.

I was told the connection was FTPS when it was actually SFTP. So I ended up using the recommended SSH.NET package. Im using FluentFTP for another project and it works flawlessly for that.

from fluentftp.

@gjhdigital Excellent, thank you.
