Hi,

I am developing a ftp download page using html.

I have included in the html page a link

<a href="ftp://.....">download</a>

but when the user clicks on the link they get a

The page cannot be displayed

I have setup ftp on the directory where the files reside and have enable
anonymous login. Also i have done web sharing.

What is the problem?

thanks

does ftp log file shows the request ?
if not, then it is not reaching ftp yet.
if yes, status code ?

Hi,

Sorry, but i am not sure where the logs for the ftp server get dumped. I
haved checked IIS and i can't seem to find the logs in there. I also checked
InetPub and can't find it there. Where is the default location for the ftp
logs?

Thanks

Disregard the previous posting. I get error status 550. I can access through
http but not ftp.

I have allowed anonymous to access the directory with read and write
permissions.

What's the problem?

This is what i get in the log file

c:\winnt\system32\logfiles\msftpsvc1\ex060829.log


23:57:30 10.10.1.62 [6]USER anonymous 331
23:57:30 10.10.1.62 [6]PASS IEUser@ 230
23:57:30 10.10.1.62 [6]sent
/ImageBank/NewImageBank/images/Christmas/BSC_Christmas_image1.jpg 550
23:57:30 10.10.1.62 [6]sent
/ImageBank/NewImageBank/images/Christmas/BSC_Christmas_image1.jpg 550

I am guessing it is a setting in my ftp server?

can you simulate to get the file via ftp.exe ?
does anonymous user has permissions to read the jpg file?
