Hi, when usign Gravity, i can download and upload from/to a ftp server (filezilla server), unsecure 21 port from/to a local folder. But the same task using Reflector, i can upload from a local folder to a FTP server, but i can´t download a folder FROM the same FTP server to a local folder.
The only difference is that Gravity takes the last / when i specify an FTP folder (eg. /REMOTEFOLDER/). Reflector, instead, looks for /REMOTEFOLDER although i entered /REMOTEFOLDER/ in the task settings. Therefore, when i try to download, error "Couldn't get or parse the remote list" shows up in log. Tried different things but the issue remains. Thanks for the good work.

OK, it seems like FileZilla doesn't support LIST-a.
Uncheck List hidden files from your connection.

I tried a test of SFTP and got this
Logged in into the remote server.
Connected to the remote server.
Changing the initial directory to "/"...
The remote directory was successfully changed to "/"
Creating a test file to upload...
Uploading the test file...
The client is now disconnected.
Deleting the test file from the temporary directory...
An error occurred while testing the connection: Permission denied (code=3)
You can also check the Advanced log tab for more information.
No test file arrived.

This is a permissions thing. I would guess that the SFTP is configured with / being the real root. Try changing it to /home/<yourusername>

Hi
litle FTP thing - got error when testing ftp connection with initial directory included parameter (e.g. %%FNDATENOTIME)
part of adv.log explaining issue -
Code: Select all

imho, right behavior in this case - testing directory without parameter (which one will be created on real backup task action, as I`m hoping)
later p.s. oh no.. looks like directory by parameter (%FNDATENOTIME) does not created, unlike Gravity ...

The initial directory on the ftp must exists... But perhaps I will change this and try to create it...

Yes, the initial directory must exists. I will not change that for the moment. You could check Separated backups by time stamps AND use for example yyyy-MM-dd in Advanced - Timestamp for format in file names.
