Remote Path Not Visible

Muiren

It seems fast and functional design and I would purchase to support you but for this odd thing about not seeing the remote site after being told I am connected.

I have attached a screencap because the "add image" in this editor doesn't work or is disabled.

Hello Muiren,

You can actually attach images using the File icon, the "Add Image" icon is for using markup language (i.e. image url).

If you can provide a larger image that will help us to look into this issue further.

Best regards

That was a fairly large image that the forum software reduced. Here is a full monitor screen capture.

I would have chosen Discourse software. Similar look, feel, with greater practical functionality.

Hello @Muiren,

We believe chrome has made some changes to their browser sockets API as we're able to replicate this issue with the SFTP account we have, so we'll investigate further into this and provide you with an update as soon as we can.

Are you using this app on a Chromebook? If you're using Windows, macOS or Linux, you can download our newer app here:

We originally had Discourse but was less manageable for us at the time.

Best regards

danny No, Windows 7 workstation . . .

And this version of Chrome Browser . . .

Muiren

This is a public workstation and I don't have administrative right to install apps, only browser plugins.

danny

Ah okay!

We'll get this issue looked into and release an update as soon as we can.

@Muiren,

After looking through our SFTP library i can see there is an issue when we parse the packet data. I have currently got this to list the directories, etc, just still need to fix the "HMAC Corruption" error.

We should have a release for this tomorrow.

Muiren

Thank you. I like your attitude. Have to go now. I will check in tomorrow.

@Muiren,

We've just released v2.8.2 on the Chrome Webstore, we are currently awaiting review, once done, i'll let you know when the new version is available to install.

danny

@Muiren,

v2.8.2 is now published on the Chrome Webstore:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sftp-client/jajcoljhdglkjpfefjkgiohbhnkkmipm

Please let us know if this fixes the HMAC Corruption issue you've been experiencing, I can confirm with our test account its now working for us.

Muiren

On my way to the lab. Will test this as soon as I get past morning check in meeting.

Muiren

I installed the latest version of the plugin on my laptop.
No Joy, folks.
Still could not view the target directory.
Downloaded and installed WinSCP, plugged in the same credentials and before you could say instant karma, I was in.
I like the idea of SFTP access from a browser, so I haven't given up on you yet.
Make this work and I promise to donate to the cause.
I'll be back in a few with a screen cap from this laptop for you to look at.

danny

@Muiren,

If you can provide us with a new screenshot showing any errors, etc this would help us to further investigate this.

If by any chance you have any test credentials you could provide us with, this would further help us find where the issue is, and of course you can send any details to help@sftpapp.com.
