Add an FTP Server

[piggybxnk]

I was asking if you can add a FTP Server to the recovery menu. In my situation, I downloaded a custom theme with tiramisu for my menu. A week ago I deleted tiramisu because no apps were loading up, but then I realized it was the custom wii u menu theme. At the moment, I can't open anything. Including system settings, internet browser, or any of my games. If there is FTP Server I could replace my wii u menu back to default, I could Factory reset my Wii U with system settings. Or if its not too much to ask, could you put themer inside the boot menu so that I can automatically change it back to default instead of doing it manually. I don't think this is a common issue, however, if you could help me save my wiiu, i would really appreciate it. Thank you.

recovery_menu does have wupserver, which provides similar functionality, but isn't as easy to use because it uses a custom client/server protocol.

The wupclient script is available here: https://gist.github.com/GaryOderNichts/409672b1bd5627b9dc506fe0f812ec9e Requires Python to be installed, and you need to change the hard-coded IP on line 30 to match your Wii U. You also need to know some basic Python in order to use it.

To start a Python interpreter with wupclient running:

python -i wupclient.py

The w object will provide wupclient functionality. For example, this command will list the current directory:

>>> w.ls()

See wupclient.py's class wupclient implementation for the full list of commands. The useful ones start at line 371. (The commands before line 371 are direct access to Wii U system functionality and are more difficult to use compared to the wrapper functions starting at line 371.

I got it to work, however, I've been stuck on how to go to folders or directories. The commands aren't helping at all, because I have no clue how they work, or what they even do. If you can specify what commands I should use the replace files, and also go into directories, it help me out a ton. I have no clue how this works, and I found nothing online.

I need to go to storage_mlc/sys/title/00050010/10040100/content/common/package/Men.pack and Men2.pack (im pretty sure thats where it is) I have no clue what I'm doing, please help.

Edit: So i figured it out. Ive gotten to the directory:

But im confused on how to replace the files. I have both files I need to replace. What I found out was:

w.up("localfile", <"consolefile>)       - Uploads the localfile to the specified consolefile`

So what I did was

w.up("C:\Users\user\OneDrive\Desktop\Men.pack")

it gave me: SyntaxError: incomplete input

I also tried:

w.up("C:\Users\foxxg\OneDrive\Desktop\Men.pack" "Men.pack")
w.up("C:\Users\foxxg\OneDrive\Desktop\Men.pack" <"Men.pack">)

Also giving me errors:

SyntaxError: incomplete input
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 2-3: truncated \UXXXXXXXX escape

What does this mean? How do I replace these files? I need to replace:

Men.pack
Men2.pack

Please help me.
