#4005 Calculate md5 on upload, and create file on server with md5 digest new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Assume a user is uploading 1234.dat to an FTP server, and is concerned that the file will make it across.

A really useful option for the integrity conscious out there would be for filezilla to calculate the md5sum of a file being uploaded (virtually free, since the entire file is being read anyway), and when the file transfer is complete, upload a file called 1234.dat.md5 (or perhaps md5/1234.dat) that contains the md5sum of the original file, so that it can be verified on the server side.

TCP handles integrity to some extent, but it is not the most robust method. Bugs in an FTP server could also be detected like this, and memory/disk errors on the FTP server.

#4009 automatically clear private data on exit new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Borrowing a design concept from Mozilla Firefox, it is kindly requested to implement an optional method to clear private data upon exiting the application.

Perhaps introducing a page under Settings could facilitate this feature. The behavior of this page would allow the user to select any or all of the private data categories (Clear quickconnect history, Clear reconnect information, Clear Site Manager entries, Clear transfer queue) to clear automatically when closing the application.

Regards.

#4020 Individual Folder Configurations for Overwriting Files new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I would like to see a setup so as to store paticular configurations for overwriting files and other things for paticular folder names.

I am constantly working with the same 12 or so folders, the root folder never changes, some of them have a change about once a month, and some of them there are changes made every day. I would love to have a confirmation notice when it comes to folders in the updated infrequently folders, but i want it supressed in the folders that I am always going into.

I think it would be a good feature if FileZilla could read the folder name and apply special permissions if it matches a name in a configuration file.

#4023 Cancelled transfers are added to the Successful transfers list assigned Bruno Ramos Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

When the destination file already exist, and we click on "Cancel" on the dialog window, the transfer is not done,

but the transfer is added in Successfull transfers list This is not correct.

FileZilla 3.1.5.1

#4040 Provide a way to prefix/suffix timestamp for "Rename if file already exists" new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

It would be very very beneficial if an option is provided, that simply renames the existing file with a timestamp.

e.g. When I upload a file named index.php to a server and if the FileZilla finds index.php already existing on the server it should rename the existing version to index<timestamp>.php and copy the new one from local source. This would be a great versioning feature and will help many programmers.

#4048 File path disappears when trying to edit history new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

To recreate:

  1. Click the arrow in either "local site" or "remote site" boxes.
  2. Press up/down to select a previous path from your history.
  3. Using only the keyboard (i.e. don't click in the box) type a different path, or press right add a subfolder to the path.

If you press Enter here the path will just disappear from the box, rather than opening the path you've typed in the box.

#4053 Add an option to automatically delete the installation file after an update new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

On the "Check for updates" window, I would like to see an option (checkbox) to automatically delete the installation file after the update is complete.

Currently, the user is asked where to download the update file. After the update is complete, the .EXE file is left in the download directory and must be manually deleted by the user.

#4055 Request for History [paths of local site and remote site] new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Hi again FzP,

I loved WS_FTP's history feature.. If I logged back in tomorrow or in three months it still shows the last 25-30 directories that I went to all on a site profile basis. So I didn't have to remember or retype any of those long or hard to recall deep down directories - it was great and my only (well, main) :) disappointment with FZ...

It also has 'sound' notification when a D/L is finished - nice if you're D/Ling larger files and are away from the computer..

If possible, can that (they) be added..

Thanks much, Nick. . .

#4079 Alternating background color for file lists new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I would like to suggest alternating background color for file list rows. On very wide monitors (16:9) it is quite hard to visually follow line from filename to attributes.

Thank you.

#4083 User interface - Feature Suggestion new User interface Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Hello! My name is Pablo Massa, I am a graphic designer/web developer, I have 24 years, live in Montevideo-Uruguay and use FileZilla.

I send you a screenshot with a feature suggestion, it was fun to emulate the interface of Filezilla. http://www.crepesweb.com/no-robots/otros/feature-filezilla.png Feature Suggestion (online too)

Sincerely, Pablo.

#4108 Disconnects resetting the elapsed time stat. new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

Is there any reason why disconnects should reset the elapsed time?

It would make sense for a user-initiated disconnect to reset the timer, but server timeouts / auto-reconnects should not reset the timer. This resetting basically makes the elapsed time stat useless, especially for transferring large files.

Maybe this should also be a feature request to have this as a changeable option for the user?

#4123 Options to set default values for new Site Manager entries new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I use FZ mostly for authenticated SFTP connections, only occasionally for plain FTP connections and almost never for *anonymous* FTP.

So whenever I add a new entry to the Site Manager (which I do quite frequently), I have to change the default "Servertype" from FTP to something else (two clicks), the "Logontype" from "Anonymous" to "Normal" (two more clicks), and the User from "anonymous" to my username (which is the same on most servers I log into).

One great enhancement would be if the "Anonymous" option simply disappeared from the Logontype choices when SFTP is chosen for the Servertype. It really makes no sense when using the SFTP protocol, right?

But the feature I'd really love to see would be a "New Site Defaults" section in Settings (or even some kind of special "default site" in the site manager from which new sites would inherit their default attributes) to allow users to preset their most commonly used values for new sites.

For those of us who use their S/FTP client all day long, this would be a great time saver, instead of having to repeat the tedious chore of un-setting the same old default options, that you never use, every time.

One last, simple yet incredibly helpful, feature (from FTP Voyager) when adding sites to the Site Manager is to have the initial host value be a copy of the connection name by default. So as you type the new site name (in the left tree view), you are also populating the host field (on the right).

Why? Think about it: When you press the "New Site" button, you must immediately type the name of the new site. Many people (ME! and, admit it: you too!) simply use the host name (or a short form of it) for the site name. So routinely creating, saving, and connecting to a new site would then be as simple as pressing New Site, typing its host name and pressing enter (if my defaults RFE above were implemented).

Obviously I am a keyboard guy. I have a hot-key setup in windows that launches FZ. In case you haven't detected the pattern here, I also just voted on the RFE to add a Settings/Interface option that causes the Site Manager to open upon FZ startup.

CTRL-ALT-F Alt-N hostname.com <enter><enter>

That would be great.

#4126 timed bandwidth throttle mechanism (speed limit scheduler) new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

The ability to throttle speed in accordance to the time. Does not require a "planning" ability, but merely recognition of time and the corresponding speed associated with that time. Should probably have a setting for each half hour double example shown below. e.g. 1 50kb/s 2 50kb/s 3 50kb/s 4 50kb/s .. 23 500kb/s 24(h) 500kb/s

time = 23:33 therefore max speed allowance = 500kb/s

Such a simple, crucial, yet absent feature.

#4155 Entry "Desktop" in folder browser shouldn't switch to real location new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

In the folder browser there is the entry "Desktop". When I select it FileZilla switches to its real location (e.g. C:\Programs\Documents and Setting\Username\Desktop). Like in other programs I'd like to have this changed so that the folder browser doesn't get expanded until the real location, because in my opinion the actual behavior is unhandy.

#4166 Filezilla isn't a file management tool reopened Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

This bug report is (in some way) based on tickets submitted before, e.g.: #1345, #2929, #3742, #3746

If I get these and especialy the responses to them right, the additional code to limit a function which would otherwise just work as expected (i.e. offline editing with a configurable editor) is there, because the "edit" function is only implemented for "automatic transfer". But this in turn isn't automatic (and thus broken to quite some users) as has been reported and confirmed several times, e.g.: #1406, #2765, #2899, #2914, #2992

Furthermore altering "open" (and "double click on files") to make it an alternative to "edit" is refused because Filezilla shall not be a file management tool.

On top of that the non-automatic "automatic upload" meanwhile can be disabled as it's behaviour did irritate several users who instead decided not to make use of it at all. Thus we now have an "edit" function for something which doesn't (fully) work in practice and an "open" function which is useless to most of us.

But if Filezille must not be a file management tool then why is Filezilla insisting on displaying a listing of local files at all? It's even not possible to turn that off.

Either proper file management should be implemented/allowed, or the fractional (or should I say bugged?) file lisitng thingy should be removed completely. Because in the current form it is confusing at best an leads to data corruption or even data loss at worst. Additionally this step would release space on the screen (which could be used by a proper file management tool instead).

Or in short: Filezilla should concentrate on it's job: FTP. It should leave the task of file management to the programs which are good at this "e.g. Explorer, Konqueror, Nautilus or Finder" (codesquid in response to Ticket #2929).

(Filezilla V3.2.0)

#4192 Clear Indication When Data Is or Is Not Encrypted new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

As I understand it most FTPS connections do no encrypt the data channel. It would be helpful if the client displayed a partially locked icon when only the command channel is encrypted and the data channel is not.

Ideally, the encryption details would also specify whether or not the command and data channels are encrypted in all cases.

A per-site preference as to whether an encrypted data channel is required would also be helpful.

#4218 Default filter set for site profiles new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Within the Advanced tab of each Site Profile, provide an option to select a named "filter set". This should appear exactly like the Filter Set dropdown within the filter dialog, but should apply to a site immediately when switching to that site profile.

It becomes necessary for those of us that manage a lot of FTP sites to manually select different Filter Sets when switching to specific sites each time anyway, this would ensure that the correct filter set was applied automatically without having to remember to do so each time.

#4229 List View new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Standard Windows file listing options allow you to view a pane of file listings in one of the following formats: View: Large Icons, Small Icons, List or Details. The default in Filezilla appears to be "Details", which is not optimal for my personal usage habits. I prefer "List" view. My directories have lots of files and I only need to be able to see file names and nothing else. Normally in Windows, a "View: List" will result in multiple wrapping columns instead of a single column, and where you can then view dozens and dozens of file names in a single pane without scrolling. Makes it easy to locate and select specific/multiple files by name in a single glance.

#4243 Make all settings available in fzdefaults.xml new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

This is an idea developed in the forums (before i found out about you using trac, so my apologies for cross-posting): http://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4721&p=37693#p37693

From the link:

My idea would be to integrate default options parsing (now in COptions::LoadGlobalDefaultOptions) into COptions::CreateSettingsXmlElement (and probably rename it) so that default values are not determined by the source but by fzdefaults first. For this to work the options array needs to loose the const qualifier, unfortunatly. The idea here is that t_option.defaultValue gets set from fzdefaults.xml and iff there's no value in fzdefaults.xml then the hardwired defaults take over.

This will probably obsolete the default_options array and associated functions.

Some thought needs to go into saving this options to the configs. Basically i would propose not to create xml nodes for settings set via fzdefaults.xml or just not copy default settings into users setting at all (seems a bit drastic and probably involves more code changes). This way GetXmlValue() calls for values set in fzdefaults will result in a error if the user runs a stock configuration and the default values set in the options array will take over.

I can see concerns about how this will affect expected use of user defined options. But as outlined, the precedence will be like: "filezilla.xml" => "fzdefaults.xml" => "code defaults" so that from a user perspective his config still trumps the admin config.

Maybe there could be a new option to control whether global options take precedence over user options, with it defaulting to "no" to achieve the previous behaviour. But this change is (probably too) invasive.

Benefit: corp admins will love this (i'm in a need to get this behaviour)

If it's needed, i can probably come up with a patch to make this work.

Apologies if the report is not that clear on how i would implement this, but the basic request is: make *all* config options stack like this in order of precedence: filezilla.xml, fzdefaults.xml, code

#4249 Incomplete download should be deleted new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

When i download files from my web host to my computer to syncronise and if in between i plan to stop or skip one file which is been downloaded due to heavy file size or other reasons (by clicking on "Remove Selected" in "Queued Files" then file stop and filezilla move to next file to download, but it does not delete the old and incomplete file.

Remove Selected command should stop and DELETE the file been downloaded.

#4280 Connect from history feature proposal new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

When making a new connection from a list of previous connections it would be cool if fields Host, Username, Password and Port would populate with data of that previous connection

#4283 Reorder quick connect list new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

It would be nice if the quick connect menu would update when you connected to a server in it.

So if I had a @ b.x c @ d.x e @ f.x

and connected to c @ d.x the list should update to be c @ d.x a @ b.x e @ f.x

otherwise frequently used FTP servers can still be pushed off of quick connect over time when you connect to other servers.

This behaviour would be similar to that of several other FTP clients, such as FlashFXP.

This could be an optional behaviour.

#4285 Stop transfer from this server after finishing all active downloads from this server reopened Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

FireFTP is great piece of software but sometimes i can't finish all downloads from one or more servers so it would be nice to have the feature of finishing all active transfers for all or only one specified server and keep the rest in the queue (but inactive until next activation) This would help avoiding transfers that can't be finished in a session.

Thank you very much for this great software!

#4293 doubleclick action: open new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

shortly doubleclick actions have been expanded with "view/edit".

filezilla2 had the option to chose "open". this used the default program, set in file options in windows. my windows file settings made a .htm file open in notepad.

this way i was able to:

  • doubleclick to edit the file
  • hit return to upload it

this was so easy

#4300 SFTP Timeout/Disconnect not disconnecting filezilla new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

Im having an issue with Timeout's in SFTP (and have been since 3.0)

Basicly if the server connection expires/timeout's filezilla dosent know. so if i ls it works, then ls in over a minite it dosent. see log:

Status: Directory listing successful one min later... Status: Retrieving directory listing... Command: ls Error: Network error: Software caused connection abort Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing

I can get around this by going to "Server->Cancel current operation", "Server->Disconnect", "Server->Connect" then retrying my command :)

This is a bit of a hassle though, so if could be fixed in a later release that would be great!

Thanks,

Complistic.

#4306 Watch a server 'hot' folder and automatically download any new content reopened Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I know there are probably lots of other features requested but this feature would make FZ stand out more.

The goal is to keep a folder on a server and the folder on my client machine in sync, in so far as to download new content that shows up. I want the client machine running FZ to 'regularly' poll the server and compare the files on the server with those of the local machine. (The polling time ideally can be set in local preferences.)

When a new file is added FZ should start downloading. The mechanism for detecting what is new could be to compare the folders contents by filename, size and possibly creation date.

While this is a feature MOST people won't need there is probably a smaller group who can really use this and it would make FileZilla outshine the other clients.

Thanks for considering this.

#4310 Suggestion to add "Status" column in "Successful transfers" tab new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

First, thanks to all the contributors of Filezilla for this great and easy-to use tool.

I have one feature suggestion. Filezilla offers different options to handle the case when a target file already exists. Probably the most commonly used one is to skip the transmission of files if source and target have the same date and/or size. In the recent version, the FTP log pane at the top of the screen shows for each file whether it was downloaded or skipped.

It would be advantageous to display this information also in the "Successful transfers" tab of the bottom pane.

Suggestion how to realize:

  • add a column named "Status"
  • for each file, display the status; at least "Downloaded" or "Skipped"; or, if data available, even more options e.g. "Overwritten", "New", "Skipped"

Thank you very much in advance for considering this feature request.

#4318 Tab Key to FZServer interface main window new Feature request normal FileZilla Server
Description

For better accessibility to blind people, could you add the Tab and Shift+Tab shortcut to move between elements of FZFtpServer interface's main window (log and connected people list)?

#4323 Upload files of certain filesize, independently new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

It's hard to explain this feature request in the summary line above. Basically, I think there should be an option in the control panel that will let a user upload files depending on filesize or even filetype for that matter.

Here is an example:

Let's say that you are uploading a big file (over 100mb). You have already begun that upload and you have now decided to upload some images, where each have a filesize less or equal to 1mb. Although you only allow 1 upload at a time, these images should be able to upload at the same time due to the small filesize (or filetype).

I figure in the options, there can be something that says:

Enable Force Upload: _ Force Upload if size less than: _ Mb Force Upload if file of type: jpg/png/mp3

Hopefully this suggestion might be considered.

Thanks again for FileZilla :p

#4333 Quick transfer (or repeat queue) button, with pre-configured files to send new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

When I develop websites, I usually separate CSS, Javascript and (X)HTML/PHP into different files, located in different folders. Some of the included PHP source files are outside the wwwroot for improved security.

Typical situation (simplified): wwwroot/index.php wwwroot/js/site.js wwwroot/js/other.js wwwroot/css/site.js

some/other/path/includes/functions.php some/other/path/includes/template.php

Very frequently, I'm editing both the .js, .css and maybe the template.php files at the same time - as they are very related to each other. I would make some changes in several of the files mentioned and then upload them to the server, checking the results in a browser, make some adjustments (to several files) and uploading again.

Since the files are not in the same directory, I have to change directory two or three times every time I need to upload the files. The relatively new feature of synchronized browsing took away half of the work, since I only need to change directory on the local machine and the client automatically changes the remote.

I've tried bookmarks, they helped a little, but what I really would like to see is this:

A function that works just like the transfer queue (when you drag files onto it rather than dragging then to the remote site) - the files are queued, but not yet transfered. All the queued files are transferred (from several folders, into their respective remote folder) when you press the "Send queue"-button. But when this is done, they are removed from the transfer queue.

It would work if you add a button that simply "resend last queue". An even better thing would be the possibility of adding several "macro"-buttons with pre-configured files to send. For example; you could make a "Send the index.php, main.js and main.css"-button and ad this button to the toolbar or the bookmark menu.

Thanks for reading through my ticket.

Regards, Erik

#4340 priority ignored if new files added to queue new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

If i add x files and leave the priority on normal, then add some files and change the priority to highest and stop and restart the processing of the queue, the highest rated files start fist... as expected. If i now add again some files and change their priority to high, they get first downloaded after the next file with higest priority is finished. version: 3.2.3-rc1

#4361 Site Import Duplication new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

FileZilla Client Site Import causes duplication for any sites that already exist in FileZilla when the Import is done. To me this is a bug but I can understand why it could be considered normal behavior.

I suggest a user option: over-write same-name sites (y/N)? Sites must be in the same folder and have the same name. Imported info would over-write existing info if option is selected. This could either be a setup option or an option on the Import screen.

#4378 Delete source file(s) after transfer new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Please add the possibility to delete source file(s) after successfull transfer.

#4381 Site Selector Dropdown sort by last connected. new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Hi. I have an increasing number of sites. I use filezilla on a daily basis and always have to look for the last site that I connected to. This would be very handy as it would remind me the last sites that I was connected to and It would make them easily accessible for reconnection.

thanks

#4384 Message log tab selected by default new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I love the new feature of putting the message log as a tab along with the transfer tabs, however I think the message log tab should be selected by default when there are no active or queued transfers. At the least, I think it should be able to be active when you open the program. Perhaps if you could re-arrange the tabs, you could accomplish the message log being first when you start up.

#4387 Automatic protocol detection new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

This is a usability feature request. I'm trying to do a quick connect to a sftp server and it errors out because its a sftp server. Quick Connect should use its protocol detection to make life easier for people! If sftp is detected it should automatically try and connect via SFTP. Easy is good! Thats my only argument.

This is the message i get if i try and quick connect to a sftp server: Error: Cannot establish FTP connection to an SFTP server. Please select proper protocol. Error: Critical error Error: Could not connect to server

#4398 Focusing local directory tree clears UNC path from local site new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

To repeat:

  1. Ensure the local directory tree is visible
  2. Enter a UNC path into the "local site" text box
  3. Press Tab

This gives focus to the local directory control, which changes the local site back to the selected item in the tree clearing the UNC path. This is annoying for both keyboard navigation and for changing to a subfolder of the UNC path.

Ideally, the local directory tree should include the "Network" folder that appears in explorer and the UNC path you entered should appear within it so you can use this control to navigate to subfolders.

If this isn't feasible, merely giving this control focus without changing the selected item shouldn't change the "local site" folder.

#4408 Add Hibernate as an option for queue completion new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

In addition to Shutdown or Reboot system upon queue completion, could you please add Hibernate? My laptop is old and slow and I hate leaving it running all night but I also hate waiting for it to boot, so I would like it to Hibernate when my transfers are done.

#4416 Reversed Transfer queue reopened Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

when moving a folder the client transfers the contents of the folder in reversed order.. I have, with no luck, searched the settings trying to figure out if I had some way of fixing it, but sadly not..

I consider this to be a bug, since any normal client would take the files in the folder by alphabet.

#4418 Restricted User account for FileZilla Server service new Feature request normal FileZilla Server
Description

FileZilla Server service use "Local System" to run.

Although it is possible to change it to a restricted user account manually, it will be more convenient and secure if FileZilla Server installer do this automatically

#4421 Middle-click action new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I am uploading files with double click. Double click action for directories is "Enter directory" (which is natural), so if I want to upload directory, I must right click on it and choose Upload (or drag-drop it). It will be handy to be able to middle click on it, to upload it.

#4422 Drag object onto folder opens folder new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Hi,

I wanted to request a feature which the Macintosh has in its folder setup. You click and drag an object onto a folder (i.e. an image from your server to your desktop onto the folder titled "Pictures"), and if you hold that object over the folder for a specific amount of time (maybe a setting for the timer?), it will automatically open the folder, so you can drop the image there, or drop it into a sub-folder.

#4446 Remote Server to Remote Server Transfer new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I would love to have the ability to FTP from one remote server to another remote server bypassing my local machine.

This is a feature request. I searched but could not find this request.

#4451 Synchronized Browsing does not update local listing after upload is complete. reopened Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

During an upload (or download?), mostly on quick 1 file uploads), you are allowed to navigate the local file tree. When the upload is completed, the selected directory is updated on the ftp server side, but the local side does not update and remains. causing you to have to selected a different directory, then going to the one you wanted.

I am not sure if this is a synchronized issue, or a file-zilla bug, because the remote side does update correctly.

#4452 Changing the GUI for handling priority new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Hi,

Filezilla is overall the best FTP client I used, but one feature is a bit awkward to use: the way the priority of the files in the queue is handled.

Using a separate attribute for priority is confusing. It's not always obvious which files are going to be processed first. For example, when you add files to the queue, they can get a higher priority than the ones already there, and the current download won't finish until the new added files are completed.

It's also cumbersome to chose a given priority, and then try to visually check if you got it right.

A much much better way to handle priority is that the first file on the queue is always processed first, and to add menu commands to move items up, down, top and bottom. It's simple, WISIWIG, and you just can't be wrong.

Thanks in advance for looking into it.

#4490 cannot list symbolic links reopened Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

The new Filezilla client does not list symbolic link that are on the sftp server.I am using surge fpt as server. I have a symbolic link in my home dir that is called sftp_data and i cannot see that link with the latest client and with a old client i can see it.

The only dir that i see with latest client is .ssh

#4498 Request for Pause/Resume function new Feature request normal FileZilla Client

I'd like to request a Pause/Resume function as in FileZilla 2

Is it possible to implement a rightclick => pause/resume function, both for individual files and for queues?

#4503 action after queue completion, HIBERNATE new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Shutting down dows not always work. it is frought with problems. it frequently fails on my machine because certain programs crash during shutdown.

something that *always* seems to work is hibernation (except on compaq laptops where function keys "quickkeys" are broken, there a shutdown is fine). it is also preferable in some cases.

There are a lot of times when I will have a multi-gigabyte upload in process over several days or overnight, and I want the machine to hibernate itself after the queue is done.

I don't like shutting the machine down. I have a lot of apps I like to keep running and files I like to keep open (as a developer and a multitasker).

different things for different situations. Hibernation also applies to Linux, if Filezilla ever is available for linux (or mac?).

#4530 Accessibility events missing from the file lists in Gtk+ version new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Launch Accerciser (http://live.gnome.org/Accerciser) and Filezilla.
  1. In Accerciser (please see attached screenshot)
  1. In the list of accessibles on the left, highlight the filezilla application
  1. In the notebook on the right, choose Event Monitor.
  1. In the Event Monitor, select the Selected application radio button.
  1. Press the Select All button to check all event types.
  1. Give focus a file selection list and arrow up and down.

Expected results: Some* event would be issued each time the selection changes to inform assistive technologies of this fact.

Actual results: No events whatsoever seem to be issued when the selection changes. As a result, *nix users who are blind cannot use Filezilla.

I'm using Filezilla version 3.2.4 from http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Unofficial_Binaries. Note that I started building the latest from trunk using the instructions for OpenSolaris on your wiki, but I was not successful. However, in looking at the list of changes on your wiki, I came across: http://filezilla.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/filezilla?view=rev&revision=3159. Therefore on a Ubuntu Jaunty box, I got the latest "Successful" nightly snapshot (2009-05-21). I'm still not seeing any accessibility events when the selection changes. :-( If I'm missing something, please let me know. Otherwise, thanks in advance for looking at this issue!

#4564 Average Transfer Rate on Completed/Failed Transfers new Feature request normal FileZilla Client

#4572 FTP over TLS client certificates new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

FTPClient is a great multi-platform program! It functions where others fail. I use it extensively on Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD!

I find that FileZilla client lacks only one important feature. When using TLS it does not support "client authentication". In principle this comprises (at least for the client) only the sending of a client certificate to the server and nothing more.

Could this feature be added? You will make my day!

#4584 Show progress status when Minimized accepted radoslavma Feature request normal FileZilla Client

It will be good to show the status of the download/upload process on the taskbar, instead of just showing FileZilla label, so it's possible to check the progress without the need to restore the window.

#4590 Ability to view and export public certificates/keys used on remote servers. new Feature request normal FileZilla Client

It would be very nice to have the ability in FileZilla Client to view, (maybe) manage, and export public keys and certificates sent from secure servers.

#4603 Multipart/connection downloads. new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I use FileZilla on a day to day basis for my server administration needs. I prefer this software but on occasion I have to use other clients, such as lftp, to download some very files (normally backups) using multiple connections.

In particular I have a server where I'm not able to download faster than 150 KB/sec. In order to retrieve large files from this server I end up either a) ftp'ing it to another server first where our ISP has better peering or b) I use lftp and pget.

Thanks much, Jerret

#4615 Display file name in message box when deleting a file new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

When I delete a file with FileZilla 3.2.6 I have this message :

"Really delete x files?"

I would like to have a message when I delete a limited amount of files (ex < 10 ), such as this :

"Really delete 'file1.txt', 'file4', 'folder2'?"

When I'm working on a production server I want to be sure not to delete the wrong file (or worst : the wrong folder).

The visual hint (file selected in list) is not enough when I have to go fast and in terms of usability isn't the best way because the message box can cover the selected files.

#4629 Case Sensitive File Transfers/Overwrite new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

When transferring files to FTP servers running on platforms such as Microsoft Windows files are overwritten without warning when they have the same name but differing case.

For example, when uploading a file HelloWorld.txt and then immediately uploading a second file named helloworld.txt the first file is silently overwritten by the second.

At a minimum, a checkbox in the Site Manager to tell FileZilla that the server is case-insensitive would be nice. Perhaps some sort of server case-sensitivity detection could be implemented, for example, using the response from the SYST command.

#4643 Requesting additional buttons for "instant connections" to sites new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

90% of my FTP traffic is to one site, and 70% is to three. I imagine that this is true for a large number of users. I would like to see the ability to define a small number (I'd be happy with two, overjoyed with 5) buttons on the same line as the Site Manager, the Message log Toggle, and others that would behave similarly to a set of "radio buttons" to select predefined sites (or bookmarks within a site) in the site manager.

#4644 Can't uninstall a single user only install in Vista new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

Using: FileZilla Client 3.2.6.1 (also happened with 3.2.6, and at least one other unknown previous version) Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit (running as default admin-level user with UAC enabled)

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install FileZilla with default settings except select "Only for me".
  2. Try to uninstall FileZilla from the start menu entry.

Actual results: Nothing is uninstalled and the uninstaller asks you to reboot, nothing is removed after the reboot either.

Expected results: FileZilla is removed.

Workaround: Right-click uninstall.exe and select "Run as administrator".

#4645 Multiple local files with same name after download new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

When I download files with the same name but different cases (e.g. Readme.txt and readme.txt) from different remote directories to the same local directory you end up with two files in the local side of the client.

As you know in windows file names are not case sensitive so there should only be one file.

#4680 Resizable "Files currently being edited" dialog, change from modal new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

When editing a lot of files sequentially, the list of currently-edited files becomes quite long (and as such, the scrollbars become tiny and impossible to grab).

The textarea showing the list of files is only three rows high; it seems to be an omission in the UI design. Suggestion: could the dialog be made resizable (and remember its sizing once resized?)

The dialog is also modal - does it need to be?

#4690 FZ failed to stop on upload when remote closed connection new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

Using FZ to upload from Vista Business PC to Win Svr 2008 Enterprise, IIS FTP server. Remote side closed connection due to user id exceeding disk quota. FZ kept on sending (?) and would not accept the cancel operation request. Once it "completed" the transfer control was returned to user.

#4694 Preference option to bypass confirmation for remote edit upload trigger reopened Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

I'm using FileZilla v3.2.6.1

It would be nice, in addition to the "Watch Locally Edited Files for Modification And Prompt..." to have an "Upload Automatically" option. This would be a life saver for tedious 'remote' edits and testing.

Side note: i'm a longtime FileZilla fan, used on PC forever, after switching over to OS-X from Windows, I had a brief affair with CuteFTP, but then came back when the OS-X port of FileZilla became available.

#4698 Filenames including a : get stored as alternate data streams reopened Bug report normal FileZilla Server
Description

When uploading from a client that supports a : in the filename, the FileZilla will accept the file for download, but will store anything after the : as an alternate data stream.

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or a feature.

It might be good to include a configuration toggle to disable this behaviour (i.e. send an invalid filename message to the sender) by default, as I found it very surprising.

Test case:

From a BSD, Mac or Linux box, create a file named "a:b". Upload the file. The server will show a 0 byte file named a, with an alternate data stream b with all of the content.

#4700 Right Clicking on a file should offer "transfer AS" option new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

from time to time I need to transfer an ascii file between Windows and Linux "as is" and the fastest way would be if I could right click on the file name and in the options panel select "transfer as" and then be able to select whether or not I want FZ to convert anything.

Nat earthshaking, but it would be helpful

#4710 Add choice for directory location when editing files new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

When I edit a file remotely, it stores the file locally in /tmp/fz3temp-<num> (on Linux), and C:\Documents and Settings\<home directory>\Local Settings\Temp\fz3temp-1 (on Windows). This is fine normally. I use Vim to edit files and I re-open the local copies up with each file up in a tab. It's just kind of a pain in the rear to drill down the long directory path, on windows more so than Linux. My request is to do the following: In Edit->Settings->File Editing, please add an input box/browse button to select/enter a directory path for the default local file edit storage path (or whatever you call it).

Thanks for a great program.

#4721 Set Priority on Transfer new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Sometimes I have 1000+ downloads/uploads going on at the same time. The newest transfers go to the bottom of the list, and because of the creation of the status bar, it is difficult to right-click on the items at the bottom of the list (they keep getting moved below the screen). And though it would be nice to fix this issue, I imagine it would be difficult to fix. Thus, I thought it would be nice if you could right-click the local or remote files you have selected and the "Upload" option (assuming local for language sake) in the menu could include another option "Upload at Priority" or something with a dropdown menu where you could specify the priority of the uploads/downloads. Thus, I'm not trying to find the files after they have been loaded to the que to set the priority but am setting the priority the moment they are added to the que.

Short version: Ability to set the priority of an transfer when adding to the que by right-click on the item(s) selected and specifying the transfer priority.

#4722 Right mouse click to get file path of uploaded file new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Justification: Many file upload operations are a single file which you want to quickly share on the internet. loading the file and then manually retrieving the full URL to the file you just uploaded is a major pain.

It would be great to have two features:

Option 1: When you upload a file, the http URL to that file is loaded into the paste buffer so you can immediately paste for your peeps in forum, IM etc. The form of the URL (ftp://mysite.com/myfile.pdf or http://mysite/myfile.pdf) could be configured in FZ options. Would be nice to have a popup reminding you that the full URL has been copied to the clipboard.

Option 2: Add menu options when file is right mouse clicked in FileZilla Remote Site pane - allows you to pick one of several options for copying the path (ftp://mysite.com/myfile.pdf or http://mysite/myfile.pdf ). This one is very much like the old Ninotech Path Copy program for Windows. Can be downloaded here: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/13986.html

#4724 Store Site Information in a Database new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

In order to allow use of the ftp software in a multi-user and/or multi-site environment, it would be great if the software would store the site manager inside a database (MySql or MS SQL).

#4732 Don't overwrite file until transfer is complete new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

While uploading a file, the file which is being overwritten is done so in real-time rather than waiting until the transfer has finished. In other words, if it takes you 60 seconds to upload the new file, the old file is unusable for a period of 60 seconds. This is a major problem if the file you are overwriting, for example, is a server script which is accessed hundreds or thousands of times per minute. Of course, it's an even bigger problem if the connection is interrupted mid-transfer.

From the client end, I suggest a feature which allows uploading filename.ext as filename.ext.uploading (or something), then deleting the original file and renaming the new copy once the transfer is complete. This should be more seamless than the existing practice.

Of course, this should ideally be handled on the server side automatically, but I'm requesting this for the client because I am actually not using a FileZilla server on our (Linux) machines. It would be awesome if such a feature were implemented in both your client and server.

Thanks for taking my request into consideration, and thanks for a great piece of software!

#4735 in ftpes, add built-in trusted CA new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Filezilla Client does not have built-in trusted CA, so that it always prompts me that the certificate is wrong when I use ftpes to connect to my server with trusted CA's certificate from IPSCA.(We request the ceritificate from IPSCA; therefore, the server's certificate is not self-signed.) http://www.cs.nctu.edu.tw/~wscheng/filezilla1.PNG

I have tried the FireFTP in Firefox's Add-On, and it could recognize the certificate well without warning message. http://www.cs.nctu.edu.tw/~wscheng/filezilla2.PNG

The picture below is the FireFTP's warning message, when it connects to a self-signed ftp. http://www.cs.nctu.edu.tw/~wscheng/filezilla3.PNG

#4744 After uploading local file that has been edited, automatically refresh the local display details new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

After uploading local file that has been opened for edit through FileZilla, automatically refresh the details in the local display so that Directory Comparison does not show a difference. Steps:

  1. Using: Directory Comparison 'ON', Synchronised Browsing 'ON'.
  1. Open local file for edit.
  1. Make changes, Save.
  1. FileZilla asks if you wish to upload; Upload file.

What happens:

  1. Uploaded file on server shows new Last Modified datestamp (ie now).
  1. Local file maintains Last Modified datestamp from before file was opened for editing view not refreshed).
  1. File in remote pane is highlighted green as newer.

Wish:

  1. File in local pane is refreshed with current details.
  1. Files in both panes are unhighlighted since they are the same.
#4747 Add visual indicator to system tray icon (FZ minimised) new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

It would be great if when FileZilla is minimised to the system tray it could give some visual feedback when an edited file has been changed, like when you return to FZ after editing a file, there is a pop up asking whether you want to upload your file.

Perhaps it could flash, or change colour, or a balloon pops up?

#4750 Transfer Speed Per Site new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I deal with many FTP sites, some which has faster connections than others. With dealing with a ADSL connection with low out bound speed, it would be nice to be able to configure the upload and download speed with the site configuration rather than the client settings.

#4759 File Permissions Dialog - Request to have numeric positions highlighted when opened new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I would like to request that when files are selected to change their permissions, and the dialog box appears, that the numeric permissions be highlighted already so I may just enter the number and enter instead of having to highlight them then type the new number. This would save a step which adds up if you are doing a lot.

Thanks! Great program!

#4761 Add confirmation to "stop and remove all" option on the queued files section's context menu new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

A number of times I have aimed to select "Process Queue" on the context menu and have accidentally click the "stop and remove all" option instead. This is quite a pain when I have a large number of files queued and have to go through adding them all again.

Basically a simple "are you sure?" message would save me in this situation.

#4774 Add one more option for synchronize browsing when sync is not available. new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Overview: When synchronize browsing is enable and if a directory is missing on remote or local system, currently the system show an alert message something like "Stop synchronize browsing and continue with the remote/local directory?" and action for ok or cancel

Suggested Feature There could be another helpful action to offer here. which is download /upload to complete synchronize?

If remote directory is missing then it will be upload and for local directory missing it will be download to offer.

#4777 Add option to copy (not move) a file remotely or locally new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Add a dropdown option to duplicate a file. This is good for create backup files, when I need to clone a file I need to copy and paste and rename in the explorer on a local directory. If this options exists I just need to clone and rename in ftp.

#4783 Filter Files by Modification Date new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Add the ability to filter files by their modification date. Ex: only show local files that have been modified within the last two hours.

#4791 FileZilla can't handle long path names new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

Because you can't create a single ticket for both FileZilla client and server, I have created a duplicate one for each.

Both FileZilla client & server can't handle long path names. They are programmed to use the MAX_PATH constant when dealing with files, which only allows a full path/filename of up to 260 characters. This is only a limitation of FAT32 and doesn't exist on NTFS. This results in errors making it impossible to transfer files whose path names are too long.

For NTFS, there are ways of working around this limitation, allowing for path names of 32,768 characters (specified by GetVolumeInformation (lpMaximumComponentLength)). Utilizing UNC (unicode) filenames allows you to get around this.

For reference, see this MSDN page:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/fs/naming_a_file.asp

Hey, I like your FileZilla Client, but it is missing a good feature to have, it makes it easier. The feature suggestion is the benfit of entering the url of the FTP Connection, copy the url, view on web, etc. I have included a screenshot of a ftp program I use that does that.

#4834 filezilla does not work with UNIX systems where the user accounts shell is set to "rssh" reopened Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

"rssh" is a ssh-only shell that should work with any SFTP implementation... from the man page:

rssh is a restricted shell for providing limited access to a host via ssh(1), allowing a user whose shell is configured to rssh to use one or more of the command(s) scp(1), sftp(1) cvs(1), rdist(1), and rsync(1), and only those commands. It is intended primarily to work with OpenSSH (see http://www.openssh.com), but may work with other implementations.

When I connect to a linux host (Ubunutu HH 8.04 LTS x86-32) from a Mac OS X or Linux x32 client using Filezilla client, if the user I connect as has the shell set to "bash" - everything works properly.

If I connect to the same user again, having changed the shell to "rssh", it fails. See output below: (first is succssful, bash-shell connect, second is failed rssh-shell connect)

I have verified this on OS X and Linux x32 Filezilla client.

Thanks for a great product & stay free! :)

P.S. there is a misspelling as well: initialise should be "initialize" unless you are a Brit.... ;)

#4873 transfer time left & throughput rate invalid if limits are set during transfer new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

The throughput rate and time left estimates are correct assuming the transfer limits have not been configured.

If they are configured during a transfer, the limit is applied properly to the live transfer without interruption (a very useful feature) but the time left and throughput rate are based on a running average including all previous data prior to the limit being set. All of that data is no longer applicable.

A simple solution would be to simply reset the time left estimate and throughput counters anytime the limits are set (or make that an option).

Another option is to separate throughput into "Throughput Overall" and "Throughput Now". For time left, it simply needs to be a best estimate given the current data throughput, so it simply should not take into consideration any transfer speed data prior to about 1 minute from "now".

#4874 Adaptive concurrent connections new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I have been using FileZilla to transfer files on a gigabit network and have made a few observations.

  • With concurrent transfers = 1, transferring large files (8GB+) I can saturate a gigabit link
  • With concurrent transfers > 1, transferring large files due to disk IO on the remote FTP server and local box I get varying transfer rates in the 550-700MBp/sec
  • With concurrent transfers = 1, transferring many (~2000) small files (< 500Kb) it takes a long time to transfer the files
  • With concurrent transfers > 1, transferring many small files the time it takes to transfer the files goes down in proportion to the number of concurrent connections

I see similar results when uploading.

So I propose adding a feature to FileZilla that would try to optimize the number of connections per server during a file transfer.

One way to go about this might be to sort the queue by file size from large to small and then transfer the large files with one concurrent connection and then the small files with many concurrent connections.

This would be a relatively simple way to go about it. Just put in a conditional cap, "When transfering fileslarger than : xxx, use no more than yyy concurrent connections" and then let the normal concurrent connection cap logic work.

The other way to make this work might be to keep track of the overall transfer rate between the client and server and then vary the connection count and decide which is best. Additionally if the connection count is capped at the server side you should get a too many connections message which would set your uppper bound.

Think of it like an eye exam. "Add one connection?" "Is this better?" "No" or if connections > 1 "Remove one connection?" "No"

Evaluation could be done with every new or closed connection up to a maximum of 10 or a min of 1.

Ok so my use case would seem rather specific I admit it. But a feature like this may also be helpful when transferring trees of files on smaller links.

Sometimes it might make the most sense to transfer one file at a time even though you could transfer 3. Or... Sometimes it might make sense to transfer 3 at a time rather than one. Again the whole link saturation thing vs time to start new files.

#4886 posibility to expand server directories while disconnected new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

What i mean is that when i am disconnected from the server after a time without using the connection i could expand directories just by clicking on the plus sign instead of having to locate the dir within the file list

#4914 Drag and drop into the operating system doesn't work correctly. new Bug report normal FileZilla Client

#4920 "File has changed" Dialog after resume from suspend for all ever opened files. new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

First of all: My FileZilla setup ist german. My english is not the best.

After i woke my system from suspend to disk, the FileZilla Client starts to pop up the "File has changed" message for all ever opened files. I had to open the task manager and terminate the FileZilla task to stop that behaviour. Not any of the files has changed realy and i am not sure what the files would look like if i had choosen "upload new file to server".

Nachdem ich mein System aus dem Suspend to Disk Modus aufgeweckt hatte, began FileZilla Client für jede bisher geöffnete Datei diesen "Die Datei wurde geändert" Dialog anzuzeigen. Ich musste FileZilla über den Taskmanager beenden um das Verhalten abzustellen. Keine der Dateien wurde geändert und ich weiß nicht wie die Dateien nun aussehen würden, wenn ich "Geänderte Datei auf den Serevr übertragen" ausgewählt hätte.

#4925 Ask for action becomes a tickbox - then default option can be preselected new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

I always use 'ask for action' for the 'file exists action' - but I would prefer if 'replace if newer' was the default for the 'ask' - as I sometimes click the direction to transfer wrongly. So - why not have the alternatives set up as a selection, and 'ask' as a tickbox? That way - if 'ask' is not set - the selected action will be taken regardless, and if 'ask' IS set - the selected action becomes the default action in the 'ask' box. To me - this seems to be a much more useful interface, with a minimal change in design.

#4926 See the Transfer mode in the Transfer Queue section new Feature request normal FileZilla Client

Ability to add a column in the Transfer Queue area to show the Transfer mode selected when Auto is being used. Sometimes FZ gets confused and selects an incorrect mode. Thanks

#4930 Successful transfers addition - transfer times new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

This request is to add to the Successful Transfers tab the transfer times of each file, including:

start date and time end date and time duration

I am interested in seeing duration displayed, though start and end date/time are potentially more useful and can be used to calculate duration.

This will be helpful for logging transfer times when testing performance.

Thank you!

#4936 Retrieving directory contents of remote FTP server should be on one thread only new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

I work a lot with a ftp server that has a lot of files and subfolders in a folder. As it's a high traffic server, it needs some time to show the file list for that folder so I run almost every day into this following problem.

Filezilla is configured to do up to 3 uploads at the same time. Server has /files/ folder in the root. Folder /files/ has about 2000 folders and 1500 files in it..

I'm dragging four files from the local files list on the /files/ folder.

Three upload threads are started and each sends command to retrieve the directory listing of /files/

Server simply times out in about 10 seconds because it can't process the three directory listing at the same time, so two of the files are right away sent to Failed Transfers tab. The third thread manages to retrieve the directory listing, file is uploaded The fourth file thread upload thread is started and no longer retrieves the directory list so it stores the file right away. If I watch the Failed Transfers tab and click on "Reset queue..." right as the files appear there, the two failed files will be processed successfully.

The way I see it there's two problems about this...

  1. Files shouldn't be send to "Failed transfers" because an actual transfer attempt was not done - the directory listing failed. There should be a reconnect attempt after a few seconds, an attempt to retrieve the directory listing again (or be smart enough to see another thread got the directory listing already) and then try to store the files.

(It would be worth investigating if there are other cases where files are sent directly to "Failed transfers" even though no transfer was actually attempted.)

  1. Filezilla should be smart enough to see that if two or more threads try to get the same directory on the same server with the same user account and password, maybe it would be wise to use a mutex or something to force only one directory listing request.

Even nicer would be to have the queue system to have the directory listing as high priority and the four file uploads depending on this "directory listing job" being performed.

#4938 Separate queues and message logs for tabs new Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

When creating a new tab, it would be useful if the new tab had its own message log and queue. Queue not so much, but it's impossible to read anything in the message log of one tab, if another tab is flooding it with transfer messages when a large transfer is in progress.

#4941 Duplicated entries when importing xml new Bug report normal FileZilla Client
Description

By mistake, I've imported twice the same xml file containing site profiles. Now my ftp sites appears twice on site manager. I suggest you, if possible, to show a warning if the xml file contains sites with the same name/data of existing profiles and ask what to do (overwrite, import with another name (i.e. adding "(2)" at the end, or do nothing), to avoid duplicated entries when importing site profiles.

#4957 Configuarble local directories accepted Xishi Pan Feature request normal FileZilla Client
Description

Please allow the FileZilla's temporary directory (C:\Temp\fz3temp-1) to be configurable. We work with confidential files and I would like these temporary files to be stored on an encrypted local disk.

I know these files are normally deleted at the end of a session, but there is a possibility the files could be left unencrypted if the program or computer crashed unexpectedly.

Also, I am not sure if the Temp files are wiped securely from c:\temp when they are deleted normally.

Thanks!
