firebottle Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Usually you can enter nothing at all for a password. Now I just get "access denied" no matter what is entered. Did something change in the last few weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says "Loading..." and it doesn't respond (ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT). Tried FileZilla. Anonymous FTP logon used to work. Password seems to be required (guess I also used to pass an empty string).

Ed in SoDak Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 spellcheck: whetch >>whtech But trying ftp://ftp.whtech.com asked for password again in a second popup, which failed with a 530 error Log in incorrect. Site must need a refresh? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+mizapf Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 The http URI connects to the HTTP server (port 80), while the ftp URI connects to the FTP server at port 20/21, so the issue is probably with the FTP server only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+mizapf Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 If not, you may have to try http.client. WHtech's http server seems to be configured to deliver the directory content when you use a URL that points to a directory, so you should be able to load that page and parse it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i pounded out the code to pull the site and parse for the latest version. Working good on windows OS so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+mizapf Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Yes, but this is HTTP(S), which requires a HTTP client, and not the ftplib. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
