This is the error I get from tring to download via the browser

550 /~Uploads/pgovotsos/Software/Commodore_Business_Machines/Amiga_Vision_Professional_2_04_AV_Demo_Disk.adf: Not a directory.

However, I have downloaded it via my ftp client and Zoned it for you.

Perhaps when Turran looks here, he'll know what's up

OK DH cheers.

If anyone else is having trouble downloading stuff, with the same error message, please be patient and wait until Turran has read the posts above and made a fix, or given an explanation.

Thanks

No problems downloading that file here. I can only suggest not using a web browser to download files.

If you have to, use firefox. Edge does not work right and IE does not respect the ftp://ftp:amiga@ part that should log you in automatically but instead throws up a login requester.

In general, browsers are moving away from embedded credentials in the URL for security reasons outlined in rfc3986, section 3.2.1 ( https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt ), so if it has worked but no longer does, it might be a patch for the browser.
Example: https://medium.com/@lmakarov/say-goo...s-b051f6c7b6a3

If this has become a problem for most browsers, perhaps its time to rethink the ftp:// links and just ask people to use a real client (or type the username and password each time they try to download a file through a browser).
Example: ftp://grandis.nu/~Uploads/pgovotsos/..._Demo_Disk.adf
Or with the user "ftp" prefilled (use any password): ftp://ftp@grandis.nu/~Uploads/pgovot..._Demo_Disk.adf

If in doubt, use a real FTP client =)

Thanks Turran for the explanation. My browser attempt was done using the latest version of Firefox, so perhaps it's already been patched.

I also agree that people should use an ftp client, once setup, it's just as easy, if not better, than using the browser version.

Filezilla is free, you can download it here https://filezilla-project.org

Cheers all. I have gone the ftp route - working fine, great!

Hello,
I have uploded some files in ~Upload zone under my name Falcon57

Applications - Public Domain
AM 6000 - ProTracker v3.15 (1993)(Cryptoburners)(FW)[h Floppy International]

Compilations - Various
The Manta Force #38 - 3D Pool & Rick Dangerous & Bloodwich & Postman Pat & Intro 3D Pool & Bootvision (19xx)(The Manta Force)

The name of this file is very long and windows can't open it.
You can rename the zip files "The Manta Force #38 (19xx)(The Manta Force).zip", and it's works fine after.
Thanks.

Daz's Mega Digi-Show (1990)(Pendle Europa)(Disk 2 of 2)


I donk't know if it's in the TOSEC or not.
It's not important, because it's one of the most amazing slideshow i ever seen.


Why :
1 The music is incredible and and looks like "steampunk"
2 Digitalized photos are great quality and various


For me this production has its place among the best of the slideshow.

Hi, I appear to be having issues logging into the FTP. Can log into the site no problems but when attempting to log in using browser or FTP app it states incorrect password?
Help! Thanks

[Spyhunter]

To add, I am using Filezilla and the following settings:
Host: grandis.nu / port: 21
Protocol: FTP
Encryption: use explicit.. (have tried them all)
Logon Type: Normal
User / Password (the one I log into the forums with)
Comes up with incorrect logon error (530) for password.

Heya Spyhunter,

Just tested via IE using the following syntax and all was good:

ftp://ftp:any@grandis.nu/

Also just tested via FileZilla using this:



Again, all ok from here

[Spyhunter]

that is the standard logon, I wanted to use my own account so it doesn't limit to 50k/s if that makes sense?

You can't use your own login as you need at least 50 posts before you can create an account by going here: https://www.grandis.nu/eabadduser/

Details are in the first post of this thread i.e:

• If you stay on for too long with the anonymous account, your IP will be temporary blocked to allow others in.
• You can only have one concurrent connection.
• If anonymous users want to download faster, we have a google drive link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...XRvNkVOelNNRk0
• You can register an account, previously called an "upload account", to get access to full speed and upload rights, but...
• Registered accounts are limited to 50GB/week download.
• To register an account, you must have an EAB Forum account that has at least 50 forum posts to its name. The last post must be no older than 5 days old.
• If you already have an "upload account" from earlier, you do not have to do anything.
• You can change your FTP password and check stats etc, here: http://grandis.nu/eab

understood, thought i had a lot more posts. lol
I am connected using the standard logon via Filezilla but now when I try to download anything I get the following message:
"530 Sorry, your maximum number of connections from this IP (1) has been reached."

But I only have one connection via FileZilla?

[Spyhunter]

managed to get it working, thanks. forced only 1 connection which appeared to have worked. thanks for your help. looks like i will need to do more posts first )

[Soopytwist]

I'm a noob to ftp. I've registered as an EAB ftp user (confirmed) and installed FileZilla Client. What do I do now? My goal is to download all available WHDLoad files for my personal ROM library.

EDIT

Never mind. I've Done it. That was actually pretty simple.

[Soopytwist]

No, I was wrong:

Response: 530 Sorry, your maximum number of connections from this IP (1) has been reached.
Error: Critical error: Could not connect to server
Status: Disconnected from server
Status: Delaying connection for 5 seconds due to previously failed connection attempt...

That's just transferring the "0" folder in Commodore_Amiga_-_WHDLoad_-_Games
