Re: Crash when set remote/remembered directory does not exist.

Please post a full log file showing the problem.

To generate log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. Submit the log with your post as an attachment. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you may email it to me. You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile. Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have emailed the log.

Update: it happens when using FTP with some encryption (like TLS) and server or program cannot handle it. It just keeps retrieving directory listings (which program does not understand) then it gets too many connections from one IP).

Crash when set remote/remembered directory does not exist.

There seems to be a problem when set remote directory setting or remembered directory does not exist.

It just keeps waiting for the directory with crash.

Also if i empty remote directory setting line, it still can't find it. It should then use default.
