ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException at ftp_client.dirDetails(&quo

Question

Hello there,

if I'm listing directories with a large amount of files (here about 2000 files) by using

FTPFile[] files = ftp_client.dirDetails(".")

I get an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException =(

With smaller directories, there is no problem.

Someone has a suggestion to solve this?

Thank you

David

Answer 1

We're looking at it. The problem seems to be it is using the Windows parser but the server is supplying Unix format listings.

Can you look at the log file and see if you can see a message starting with "Rotated parser", and tell us what it is?

If it detects Windows, the Windows parser is used, and if an exception is thrown, it rotates to the Unix parser.

Hi again. Sorry to bother you at this frequency, but have you been able to solve the issue with the parser on Windows? I have not yet found it in the history list, so can I assume you are still working on it?
If I can do anything to assist, please let me know.

Also, try this quick fix:

ftp = new FTPClient(...);
ftp.setFTPFileFactory(new FTPFileFactory(new UnixFileParser()));

this sets the Unix parser instead of trying to detect it.

Hi

I can't find the message you are looking for. It there a way to increase the log level? I may assume that unless otherwise specified the log info is written to the standard out?

Thnx, Chris Schuit

Logger.setLevel(Level.DEBUG);

Try the quick hack as well to see if it works.

The quick fix results in this:

java.text.ParseException: Unexpected number of fields in listing '' - expected minimum 8 fields but found 0 fields 
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.UnixFileParser.parse(UnixFileParser.java:125) 
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPFileFactory.parse(FTPFileFactory.java:159) 
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPClient.dirDetails(FTPClient.java:1726) 

The log level does not put any info in the standard out.

Any other actions I can take to test this? Thnx, Chris

You are using 1.4.4 aren't you?

Can you email the directory listing to support at enterprisedt dot com and we'll take a look
