No directory listing in Linux #4

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install some flavor of Linux (Currently running Linux Mint 12), install ftpd.
2. Set up savegame_manager.ini with credentials
3. Try to back up a save (in my case, Animal Crossing: Wild World

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected to see a directory listing showing the root filesystem, with the 
ability to navigate to my home directory. Instead, the program just shows the 
"reading directory" message with no directory listing. This has worked for me 
fine in the past, with (I think) pure-ftpd instead of the *nix default in.ftpd 
process.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.3.0RC1, DS Lite with Flashme v8 installed. Again, this has worked in the past.

Please provide any additional information below.
If you set your root filesystem as writable by the logged in user, you can just 
press L+R to create a new file in the root. This is REALLY not safe, on the off 
chance somebody hits the overwrite button and replaces a system file. Not to 
mention playing with file permissions on the root directory is asking for 
trouble if the user is new to the OS.

Would it be possible to set up a default location in the .ini file to navigate 
to with the program? Such as home=/home/user_directory ?

I have checked out the source via svn read only to see if I can come up with a 
proposed patch, but I'm nowhere near as good a DS homebrew programmer as others.

Have not confirmed latest version, but 0.2.3b works perfectly with proftpd.

I had file browsing issues when using version 0.2.4 with a Windows 7/IIS FTP 
server. I had to set the "Directory Listing" to "UNIX" to resolve the issues, I 
can now see and select files. Hope this helps.
