File List not appearing (9 posts)

    Fetch has been working fine for 2 years till today. The connection worked, but I was timed out while Fetch tried to get the file list. I've tried the suggestions that came up (switch the passive setting / switch off the firewall), but neither worked. Noticing that Fetch Transcripts have been asked for before, I've attached that here. Any suggestions?

    thanks,

    Gordon

    Hi Gordon,

    When a server suddenly stops working with Fetch and you haven't made any changes, that usually indicates a problem with the server, not with Fetch or your Macintosh.

    Since your transcript shows that the server is refusing to talk to you in either passive or active mode (and those are the only two options!), it seems likely that the problem is indeed on the server end. You may want to contact the folks who maintain the server and have them look into it.

    But we can double-check a few things just to make sure it isn't something local.

    Did you make any changes to your Internet setup within the past few days, for instance, installing or reconfiguring a router or wireless network?

    Can you see a file list if you try to connect to ftp.fetchsoftworks.com (leave the username and password blank)?

    Thanks,

    Scott McGuire

    Hi Scott,
    I'll get on to the server people. I've not changed my internet connections, etc recently.
    I did try the ftp.fetchworks, but the same problem came up - timed out trying to get the files.

    Hi Gordon,

    Hmm, well, if you can't connect to ftp.fetchsoftworks.com then there may be a problem on your end that we need to investigate further.

    Could you please do the following:

    * Make sure your Mac firewall is off.
    * Quit Fetch.
    * Open Fetch again.
    * Open the Fetch preferences.
    * Make sure the passive checkbox is turned on.
    * Then try to connect to ftp.fetchsoftworks.com .
    * Send us the transcript from your connection attempt.

    Hopefully that will give us some insight into what's going on.

    Thanks,

    Hi Gordon,

    Thanks for the additional transcript.

    We'd like you to try to connect to ftp.fetchsoftworks.com with the command line ftp client that's built into Mac OS X. That will help us determine whether this is a Fetch problem, or something else. To do this:

    * Open the Applications folder.
    * Open the Utilities folder.
    * Open the Terminal application.
    * At the prompt, type:

    ftp -a ftp.fetchsoftworks.com

    * And then press the Return key.
    * The command-line ftp client will display some text in response; please select and copy the response text, and post it here.
    * To exit the command-line ftp, type "quit" (without the quotes).
    * Then you can quit the Terminal application.

    Thanks,

    Scott McGuire

    Hi Gordon,

    I'm sorry to say we're stumped.

    The command-line ftp client is telling you something different than Fetch is; it can't even connect to the server, whereas Fetch can connect, but not get a file list.

    Have you tried restarting your Macintosh since the problem began? If not, you should try that; it's possible your Mac is very confused and this will sort it out.

    Otherwise, if restarting doesn't help, we suggest you contact your Internet service provider - something peculiar appears to be going on with your network, and we're not sure what.

    Sorry not to have a better answer for you.
