Can't see any files or folders (14 posts)

    Hello,

    I just installed Fetch upon some friendly advice, however when I login (and connect) to the web server I'm trying to update, it won't list ANY of the files or folders that I know exist.

    FYI: I used to work with and connect to the site via a PC, but I just recently switched to Mac.

    Also, I tried creating a temp folder and it worked and I could see it. Further, when I uploaded a .html file into it and tried to access it via Safari, it also worked. However, when I returned to the root directory of the server, the temp folder disappeared!

    HELP!

    Hi,

    Please try this - connect to the site and then choose View > Refresh from the menus, or click on the Refresh button in the toolbar.

    Do your files appear when you do that?

    If not, please send us the transcript again and we'll try to figure out what the problem is.

    Thanks,

    Thanks, I actually tried that many times already, but will do it again when I get home. I'll also post another transcript with some more activity this time.

    Cheers.

    Incidentally, I also tried connecting to the Fetch FTP site that comes automatically in the shortcut list. With that I WAS able to see all of the files without any difficulty.

    Hi,

    Okay. We'd like to see the transcript that results just after you've clicked Refresh anyway, thanks.

    Hi,

    Can you still access the .html file you uploaded to the temp folder in Safari, even though Fetch won't show it to you?

    If you use Mac OS X's command-line FTP client, or another FTP program such as Interarchy, do they show you the list of files on your server?

    Sorry not to have an instant answer for you, but your latest transcript shows Fetch asking for the list of files on the server, and the server is telling Fetch there are no files there, which is rather odd...

    Thanks,

    Yes, I'm still able to access the temp file I uploaded through Fetch.

    I first tried Yummy FTP and discovered the same problem. That's when a friend told me Fetch is better. But alas, same problem.

    I'm working on a brand new machine, so I doubt it's a hardware problem. Could it perhaps be a server-side issue?

    Here is a example of me using the Go>>Go to folder... option. It finds the necessary folder but still doesn't list anything. And even upon return to the root directory, the folder I entered doesn't appear.

    Hi,

    Yes, I think this is either a server problem, or possibly you aren't connecting to the correct folder and really your files are elsewhere (although I'm not sure how that would explain the temporary folder you uploading and can still access).

    Either way, I'd try contacting the server administrator to double-check that you're accessing the correct folder, and finding out if they can see file lists when they connect to it with Fetch or other FTP clients (be sure to tell them you tried more than one FTP client).

    Thanks,

    Thank you, I will. I'll let you know if it works out.

    Posted 16 years ago #

  • keeper Member

    I don't know what the server admin did, but after 2 weeks it finally works. I can see everything and Fetch is working GREAT!

    Thanks for the help, but in the end was indeed a server problem.

    Cheers.
