I'm using version 4.5 of ScriptFTP, and running a script with GETLIST() to check whether a file is present before I attempt to download it. The code worked well on the original ftps server, but fails at the GETLIST() when I run the same script on their new server.

Would you be able to tell me what ftp command is issued by ScriptFTP when I call GETLIST()? It might be as simple as requesting they enable the command at the server.

Thanks,

John
Hello John,

The commands that ScriptFTP uses for requesting file listings is MLSD. On very old FTP servers, where MLSD is not supported, it uses LIST.

I have attached a screenshot with the detailed output enabled for further reference.
