FTPClient corrupts the images while uploading to f

Question

I'm trying to upload images to a FTP server (on my local PC) from Android Phone (HTC Desire HD). Images are going to FTP server but they are corrupted.

And the method (ftpClient.storeFile()) throws IOException (Bad File Number)

Please help me.

This is the corrupted image link:

And this is the code:

FTPClient ftpClient = new FTPClient();
    try {
        ftpClient.connect("192.168.2.14");
        ftpClient.setFileType(FTP.BINARY_FILE_TYPE);
        ftpClient.setFileTransferMode(FTP.BINARY_FILE_TYPE);
        ftpClient.setSoTimeout(10000);
        ftpClient.enterLocalPassiveMode();
        if(ftpClient.login("Administrator", "xxxx"))
        {
            File sFile=new File("mnt/sdcard/DCIM/komik.jpg");
            FileInputStream fs= new FileInputStream(sFile);
            String fileName = sFile.getName();
            Boolean result = ftpClient.storeFile("/ftpfile.atspace.co.uk/" + fileName, fs);
            String has = "";
        }
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Answer 1

Problem is solved. FTPClient class has "last packet data loss bug". But this was solved with 3.0.1 23.05.2011 release.

You can see from detailed explanation about bug: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-409

You can download fixed relea https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/commons-net/commons-net/3.0.1-SNAPSHOT/

Answer 2

Apache FTP Client has several outstanding issues with this. Below are instructions on how to use Ftp4J to effectively handle ftp programatically though java.

Download Ftp4J: http://www.sauronsoftware.it/projects/ftp4j/download.php

Then in your IDE:

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

import it.sauronsoftware.ftp4j.FTPAbortedException;
import it.sauronsoftware.ftp4j.FTPClient;
import it.sauronsoftware.ftp4j.FTPDataTransferException;
import it.sauronsoftware.ftp4j.FTPException;
import it.sauronsoftware.ftp4j.FTPIllegalReplyException;

public class FTP4J {

    /**
     * @param args
     * @throws FTPAbortedException 
     * @throws FTPDataTransferException 
     * @throws FTPException 
     * @throws FTPIllegalReplyException 
     * @throws IOException 
     * @throws IllegalStateException 
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IllegalStateException, IOException, FTPIllegalReplyException, FTPException, FTPDataTransferException, FTPAbortedException {
        FTP4J ftp= new FTP4J();
        ftp.transfer();
    }

    private void transfer() throws IllegalStateException, IOException, FTPIllegalReplyException, FTPException, FTPDataTransferException, FTPAbortedException{
        FTPClient client = new FTPClient();
        client.connect("192.168.0.1"); //conect to FTP server (in my case a vsftp on centos 6.4)
        client.login("admn", "admn123");//login to FTP Server
        client.changeDirectory("/usr/share/tomcat/webapps/imgs/"); //tell FTP4J where on the Ftp Server to send your file that you want to upload.
        File fileUpload = new File ("C:\\Users\\ih8w8\\Pictures\\1.jpg"); //point FTP4J to the file you want to upload
        client.upload(fileUpload); //upload it
        client.disconnect(true); //close connection (note: you could also log out first, then disconn if youre not in a test env)
    }

}
