What does it mean with the error from a ftp upload return the name of the host? For example, if put x into url "ftp://user:password@abc.com/file.txt" "the result" is 'abc.com'. The same identical code will execute on Windows and Linux without failure. I have read the release notes. I am fully aware that they state that Android is much more stricter than previous platforms. To that end I have check and rechecked my credentials they are coded as shown below. I have also tried both the server name abc.com (abc.com is an example) and the physical ip address "ftp://user:password@10.10.10.5/file.txt" (10.10.10.5 is an example) "the result" is '10.10.10.5' each time.

put urlencode("user") & ":" & urlencode("password") into x

Has anyone successfully uploaded/downloaded files via FTP and LiveCode? If so I would appreciate any input on the process you can provide.

Here you seem to be trying to write the contents of a variable to a file on a ftp server:
But then you ask:
So I'm a little confused Anyway, this works for me:
Note the brackets around the ftp path.

You are correct. It is conforting to know someone has it working on Android. Now I just need to find out what the loose nut between the keyboard and chair is doing wrong.

Thanks,

Hmmm my code works on iOS and I've never tried it in android...but I can't imagine why it wouldn't work.
