[DUG] Indy FTP problem

[Dave O'Brien]

I understand that viewpoint. This app uploads a number of files
(unknown) to the server on completion of some other processing. What
happens if the server goes away during this upload?

Hi David,

Here is what I will do.

I will not stay idle while connect to ftp. I will start transaction if I
have something to do i.e. get a file, put a file. Once finish what I
want, I
will disconnect immediately from the ftp server.

All network connections are valuable and limited resource which should
be
shared.

Just my 2cents

Regards

I'm having a problem with FTP in one of my apps. (First time with an FTP
client).

Using Indy 10 on 2005.

If the server times out (broken Internet connection or whatever), the
client never knows, and if the user attempts to do something, an error
occurs. I can trap the error, but I can't work out what to do to reset
the idFTP component. Disconnect, quit and anything else I can think of
just keep throwing errors.

I can easily test this by shutting down my FTP server when the client is
connected.

Any ideas?

Regards,
David O'Brien
