I can not download files from FTP

[Francisco_Benavides]

Hi, I have this scenario, I’m trying to download some files from a secure FTP.
I’ve tried the directory activities there and file exists, both return true

But when I try to use the file download activity, I do not download anything, I still use the Enumerate files activity and it does not return anything

Update:
Also try to use the file upload activity, and it does not work for me either

similar problem to me i think, i solved it with an extra slash on the remote directory

FTP Download from outside home directory

I just figured this out (by decompiling the ftp activity dll). For some reason, if the first character of the remote path is ‘/’ then it gets stripped (which is why relative paths work fine) so if you add an extra one it downloads the absolute path just fine. E.g. ‘/work/folder_a/test2.txt’ - FAILS ‘//work/folder_a/test2.txt’ - SUCCEEDS
