If your server is SFTP, you can use WinSCP to synchronize timestamps.ģ. This will take some time for a server with many files and directories.
Note: FTP is a relatively simple protocol, so a recursive listing will be re-issued on each directory on the remote FTP server. Existing, completed files will have their timestamp updated. and then, Downloads: Resume file transfer (or set Uploads if timestamp error is in the other direction)Ĥ. Turn on resume transfers: Transfer > Default file exists action.ģ. If you dont have FileZilla, please find it here. Turn on preserve timestamp: Transfer > Preserve Timestamp. We highly recommend you to use the FileZilla or Cyberduck as the FTP client. I have not found a solution to synchronizing the folder timestamp.ġ.
#Filezilla sync folder to ftp update#
The following solution will update timestamp for files (labeled as "date modified" in Microsoft Windows) available via FTP with FileZilla Client. While the author found a solution, he does not state which FTP client he used. I just made the same mistake downloaded many files without preserving timestamp. From ftp /: Transfers files to and from a computer running an FTP server service (sometimes called a daemon).
Perhaps look into using Windows' in-built FTP.exe for scripting. The operation is currently doing its thing quite happily, and since now the client is set to preserve the timestamps, it's changing them all to the timestamp on the server like I need. FileZilla isn't intended to be scripted (their goal is to be a GUI client), so there's no way to specify files to transfer from the commandline. I posted a similar message on the ftp client's forums, and got a reply advising me to restart the entire transfer all over again, and when the client asks what to do about files that already exist locally, to set it to 'resume' the file transfer. Could someone also reccomend a client to do that? I'm not aware of which client that can do what I need it to do to do that. Luckily, the ftp server does support hashing. In addition to changing all the timestamps, I'm going to need a way to compare the differences between the files in each location, and update the server's files according to a hash or something. Does anyone know a way to do that?Īnother issue I'm concerned about is that some of the files that exist in both locations have changed, and if I change all the timestamps without considering this, I'm afraid some won't get mirrored later. It wants to upload everything all over again, which isn't an acceptable option.Īside from downloading all ~10GB again, I'm seeking a way to transfer the timestamps from the ftp hosted files to their corresponding local file. I'm having a problem with the app that updates the mirrored copy on the ftp server, in that it thinks everything's new now since all the files have the same timestamp, and appear to be newer than the copies on the server.
#Filezilla sync folder to ftp Pc#
The PC with the local files is a netbook that uses a WiMax (4G cellular) connection for internet access, and the operation used up all my monthly bandwidth, plus $250 in additional bandwidth.
I have added my serveruser to the I can make a new directory using "sudo mkdir photos", but I would rather not do that.I screwed up and downloaded ~10GB worth of files from my offsite backup location (ftp server) without checking the 'preserve timestamp' option in the client. I've checked all of the folders under /var/When trying to add any folder or files to the galleries directory, I get hit with permission denied. I'm currently trying to utilize the FTP+Sync feature but am running into some permission errors. Right now I'm trying to get the FTP+Sync feature to work, as I have several images i'm needing to load onto my Piwigo server. I have been running Piwigo for about 10 months now with no issues on my ubuntu remote server.
