Actually two problems:
a) Server (or client) behind firewall which blocks the transfers
b) Client needs to filter out invalid characters from filenames, like :

[ 1213540 ] Creating illegal filenames

"I would be nice if FileZilla could translate or remove such characters, without miscreating them like this, or like most other file transfer software seem to do; just fail silently and not bother to create the misnamed file at all."

Taken from now closed:
[ 587170 ] Convert illegal filename characters

"Rename files, converting characters that would be illegal on the destination host to acceptable characters.

As an example, when transferring a file whose name contains ":" (colon) from unix to a PC running Windows NT, FileZilla truncates the filename just prior to the colon and writes no bytes. It also claims in the status window that the transfer was successful.

Simply converting all such illegal characters to "_" (underscore) would be ok, since that is what some other FTP clients do. If you want to go a step beyond that, you might allow the user to specify the character to use or even allow a mapping table."

Hi,
i didnt have these worries(and have to rename the files) with filezilla 2.2.32
before and a ftp transfert with "AUX - Mar 11-09-2007 20_30_21.vob"
is successful with version 2.2.32.(i have both the 3.0 and 2.2.32).

Taken from now deleted item, which explains the current behaviour of FileZilla 3:
[ 1798271 ] Colons in file names not replaced

"Reproduce: Have four files named '4:30.jpg' through '4:33.jpg', and try transferring them to a Windows machine. The result will be a single empty file with name '4'."

  Changed 6 years ago by ci-dev

Taken from now closed (applies to FileZilla 2):
[ 1656701 ] Colon in directory name not replaced

Make sure invalid characters get replaced in filename *and* in directory name.

  Changed 6 years ago by invasion13

Hi,
i am sorry,
i have understood that ":" isnt allowed in a file name or directory
but why it's working with filezilla 2.2.32:
It is replacing the ":" with "_" that, without any action from my side?
(and so ftp transfert is successful)
Is it a default setting ?
And so why filezilla 3 isnt able to do the same?
regards

The problem with the special characters (like : ) in filenames still appears!

Could you please have a look at that? It prevents to transfer recorded movies to my PC...

I can confirm that the problem is not solved on FileZilla 3, when I download a file named for example "aaaa:bbbb.txt", the file I get is named "bbbb.txt" (but isn't corrupted) ...

Similar bug in FireFox extension FireFTP:

Note: Handled in ftp clients built in to FF/IE

There is some handling for colon, but only fr the first one...

This bug is still on 3.2.3-rc1 : if you try downloading a file named "aaaa:bbbb.txt", you get a file named "aaaa" with a size of 0Ko ... :s

  • priority changed from normal to high
  • os_version set to XP Pro SP3
  • os set to Windows

The bug is still not resolved on 3.2.4 (2009-04-21).
Downloading files over SFTP, FileZilla does not filter illegal Win32 folder names (e.g.: "blablabla..." that contains trailing dots). It results in a folder that is not accessible by Windows (but still accessible and renamable on others OS like Ubuntu, and when renamed, it becomes accessible in Windows).

FileZilla seems to manage correctly (i.e: trailing dots are removed) folders with only one ending dot in name, or empty folders with more ending dots.

FileZilla can access such folders when downloading (it downloads all files correctly, can add files in it, and so on) but accessing it from the explorer pane of FileZilla doesn't work.

It is a limitation of Windows, not of the file system (in this case NTFS) :  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320081/en-us (see Cause 6)

FileZilla on Windows should filter such filenames, or refuse to download them, since Windows Explorer can't manage such files or folders.

Hi!
This posting is only about files having a colon (:) in their names!

The Bug is still there in 3.2.4.1 (tested on Win XP Pro SP3, NTFS). But technically speaking this is NOT a bug of Filezilla but an unexpected behaviour, confusing users.

The cause is not a limitation of Windows or NTFS - it's a feature! This feature is called "alternate data streams" (ADS) and is widely used on Windows.

How to reproduce:
I created a file called AAA:nothing.txt (size 63 kb) on the ftp server (linux). Downloaded it using Filezilla onto a drive formatted with NTFS. Download completes and the file is shown on the LOCAL directory listing with the name AAA:nothing.txt. After refreshing the directory listing in Filezilla the file name is shown only as AAA (just like in Windows Explorer).
Using the command line tool "streams" from Microsoft/Sysinternals you can see this:
D:\>streams A*

Streams v1.56 - Enumerate alternate NTFS data streams
Copyright (C) 1999-2007 Mark Russinovich
Sysinternals - www.sysinternals.com

D:\AAA:

:nothing.txt:$DATA 63000

The file AAA was created with the alternate data stream called "nothing.txt" with the correct file size+data.

It works when fetching files, but not exactly as I would expect:
* When fetching files, FileZilla does not compare size/mod date, ie that the file already exists.
* When comparing directories, files with different naming are not reconized as the same file.

This may only be feasible to handle fetching to FileZilla, but not to external.
This should maybe be opened as a new issue instead.
