Sparrowlord Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 So, I searched the forums for a good 40 minutes and was unable to find a way to do this. All I'm trying to do is make a new folder on my FTP with 5 random numbers as the name for the new folder. Any suggestions of where I could look to find this?

Any suggestions of where I could look to find this?You could use tcp, and if it receives something like "makefolderwith5randonumbers" then it would create a file with a variable name that makes 5 random numbers , assuming it's your personal server. tolle indicium

I have a dedicated server I rent and that is what I would like to create the new folder on. I use a lot of txt files. so im trying to make something that will back them up for me on my server.

What im trying to do is make a script so when I run it, it will make a random 5 letter name folder on my ftp and upload all the txt files in the folder "txt" on my desktop. o.O didnt know it was this confusing

Sparrowlord Posted June 2, 2007 Author Posted June 2, 2007 This is getting super confusing =/ If I could just figure out how to make a new folder on my FTP I can do the rest
Richard Robertson Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 Sparrowlord is not trying to make the random name, he is trying to create a directory on an FTP server. I don't know why FTP.au3 wouldn't cover that, have you got the latest version?

I don't know why FTP.au3 wouldn't cover that, have you got the latest version? I looked at the FTP.au3 and this is what I found: ;=============================================================================== ; ; Function Name: _FTPMakeDir() ; Description: Makes an Directory on an FTP server. ; Parameter(s): $l_FTPSession - The Long from _FTPConnect() ; $s_Remote - The file name to be deleted. ; Requirement(s): DllCall, wininet.dll ; Return Value(s): On Success - 1 ; On Failure - 0 ; Author(s): Wouter van Kesteren ; ;=============================================================================== Func _FTPMakeDir($l_FTPSession, $s_Remote) Local $ai_FTPMakeDir = DllCall('wininet.dll', 'int', 'FtpCreateDirectory', 'long', $l_FTPSession, 'str', $s_Remote) If @error OR $ai_FTPMakeDir[0] = 0 Then SetError(-1) Return 0 EndIf Return $ai_FTPMakeDir[0] EndFunc;==> _FTPMakeDir() Dont understand that though

Sparrowlord Posted June 2, 2007 Author Posted June 2, 2007 _FTPMakeDir($l_FTPSession, $s_Remote) ; Parameter(s): $l_FTPSession - The Long from _FTPConnect() ; $s_Remote - The file name to be deleted I dont understand that one bit.. to connect I use $server = 'xxxxx.com' $username = 'xxxxxxx@xxxxxx.com' $pass = 'xxxx' $Open = _FTPOpen ('FTP') $Conn = _FTPConnect ($Open, $server, $username, $pass) $Ftpc = _FTPClose ($Open) Why is that so much easier to do than what is in the FTP.au3 ?

Moderators SmOke_N Posted June 2, 2007 Moderators Posted June 2, 2007 can u please post it here so i can include it too?Search and Poof! Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
Sparrowlord Posted June 2, 2007 Author Posted June 2, 2007 Omg! $folder = 'testfolder' $makedir = _FTPMakeDir ($conn, $folder ) It was easy as that... im pissed now
Gif Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 Search and Poof!WTF? when i ask if FTP.au3 is in the included folder i meant if it comes along with autoit, and you RESPOND LIKE THIS??????????????? cause you have the most posts that means that you can insult anyone??????????????? and that's fair;;;;;;;
