Error with .htaccess

[skity]

We cannot see the .htaccess on some FTP server.
On the FTP Server of ​http://www.olympe-network.com/ I see the .htaccess with Adobe Dreamweaver but not with FileZilla.

This bug appear after explored a folder.

Please enable "Show raw directory listings" on the debug page in the settings dialog.

Reopen this ticket if .htaccess appears in the message log.

If it does not appear in the message log your server is broken. Please contact the server administrator in that case.

First: I have correctly checked "view hidden files" in the FileZilla settings.
Second: The server is not broken because I see the .htaccess with an other Software.

I repeat:

Please enable "Show raw directory listings" on the debug page in the settings dialog.

Reopen this ticket if .htaccess appears in the message log.

If it does not appear in the message log your server is broken. Please contact the server administrator in that case.

With FileZilla

With the other Software

Sorry I reopen because I'm sure what I tell you.
Now I check the "Show raw directory listings" and there isn't the htaccess but with my other software, there is the htaccess.
Look my screenshoot joined with this ticket.

Like I said, a broken server. It does not include .htaccess in standards compliant listings. If you can list it with other software then it is due to the fact that they violate the FTP standard by using non-standard extensions. Contact the server administrator so that he can install a proper server.

I've been sweating over this all day, and I believe it IS a bug, at least on my system (win7 64bit):

• Filezilla 3.3.4.1 runs fine, but does not show .htaccess on two major services - Lunarpages, Hostgator - whether I check Server/'Force settings...' or not.

• A fresh install of Filezilla 2.2.17 showed .htaccess right away on hostgator, with no need to check View/'show hidden file' or Edit/Settings/Interface settings/Remote file list/'Always show hidden file...'

• To confirm, I did a raw directory listing in v3, which showed .htaccess, even if it did not display in the window.

Based on this, I am confident that some people are having a bug with this; not everyone, but some, including me. It seems odd that v2 had two hidden file settings, while v3 has only one - could that be the problem? In any case, I'll have to use v2 for now, or permanently, if you decide to close/reject this ticket again.

Can you please provide a full log with "raw directory listing" enabled?

I try to explain the problem: FileZilla first asks the server which features it supports. I believe (due to you lacking to provide a log) that the server says "I support MLSD" command. FileZilla then issues the MLSD command and your server responds but does not include ".htaccess" file (this can be seen in your screenshot first.png).

As a result, FileZilla does not show this file. It is not a bug of FileZilla client, but a bug in your server.

Now, what other FTP clients do: They do not ask what the server supports, they simply assume the standard from more than 20 years ago. So they use "LIST" command instead of "MLSD". And for some reason, your server there includes ".htaccess" in its answer.

So to conclude, the FTP server you are using violates the FTP standard by not including all files in response to a "MLSD" command request.
