Guys i Have searched everywhere and I can't find it (But i read the solution before just don't know where :S) so please bare with me. Basically if i have a file/dir with white-spaces pure ftp doesn't show me the file. Ie : i like ftp.txt doesn' show up in listings in the webbrowser (ie and chrome) or ftp client (Filezilla) However if i rename the file to i_like_ftp.txt everything is ok... I prefer not to rename around 12450 files :s Any thoughts?? Thanks
I tested this on my debian 6 development machine and the file with whitespace in the name "New Text Document.txt" is shown in my ftp client (fireftp). Code: drwx--x--- 4 web1 client0 4096 Jul 4 10:40 . drwxr-x--x 6 web1 client0 4096 Jun 30 17:23 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 web1 client0 4096 Jun 10 16:33 error -rwxr-xr-- 1 web1 client0 1406 Jun 10 16:33 favicon.ico -rwxr-xr-- 1 web1 client0 0 Jun 10 16:33 .htaccess -rwxr-xr-- 1 web1 client0 1861 Jun 10 16:33 index.html -rw-r--r-- 1 web1 client0 20 Jun 10 16:33 info.php -rw-r--r-- 1 web1 client0 0 Jul 4 10:40 New Text Document.txt -rwxr-xr-- 1 web1 client0 34 Jun 10 16:33 robots.txt drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 22 19:48 stats
Till, Thanks for the fast reply. I'm also able to see all the files correctly over ssh. but not with ftp clients... Has the pure-ftp any cache system for clients for fast browsing for example?
Might be a file permission issue and not related to the whitespace in the filenames. Have you uploaded these files with FTP? If not, then the owner and group might be wrong.
