CSPro Users Forum

Hi CSPro Users,

I developed a CSPro application which sync data to FTP Server, so whenever I need a data I used DataViewer to download them. Now my question is, is there a way I can get the data from the FTP Server without downloading them through DataViewer or Login syncdata with keyword GET?

Because on the FTP Server the data are encrypted, now I need them but I cant use Internet or Network to connect DataViewer to FTP Server, is there a different way which I can use to get the data from this FTP Server?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

You should be able to access your FTP server and download data using any FTP client. Windows has an FTP client built-in with Internet Information Services, or you could use a different FTP client such as FileZilla, Cyberduck, and so on. Once you download the files you can open them with DataViewer.

Hope this helps,
Justin

There is the "Local Files" option for syncing data. See here: https://www.csprousers.org/help/CSPro/s ... local.html

If you download the files from the FTP server and have them on your local drive, you can "sync" with a "local files" server, meaning a directory on your computer, and that will create a CSPro DB file with all of the cases that were on the FTP server. You can do this using Data Viewer, or using syncconnect / syncdata.

Thanks Justin Lakiar and Gregory

But that is not a problem, I know all the syncing (i.e FTP, Local Folder, csweb, dropbox), My question was, if I already synced with FTP Server, and I have a problem downloading the data from FTP server, is there a way I get get the data without downloading then. I know on the server there is a CSPro folder created automatically when syncing data, and there are two folders inside syncdata, data and dicts, one holding data the other the dictionary that sync the data.

Inside data if you open you will see an encrypted files, this is where my question is exactly asking about, is there other way to get them decrypted? or only one way? that I must either download with dataviewer or using built in FTP too in windows?

Im asking this because, whenever im trying to download data using DataViewer or Syncconnect->syncdata it fails, this is because of network problems.

How can I get them?

Hello,

If the files only exist on your FTP server (and not locally as Greg mentioned), then you will need to download the files from the server. There are many ways to download the files (DataViewer or SyncConnect with CSPro, or another FTP tool), however you will still need to connect to your FTP server over a network. Once you have the files locally you can generate DBs with them as Greg mentioned. If your network problem is preventing any downloads from your FTP server (from both CSPro and non-CSPro sources), then you are having a network issue rather than a CSPro issue.

Hope this helps,
Justin
