Bug 29205

Description Dejan Glozic 2003-01-09 09:46:13 EST

Here is the scenario:

1) Install optional WebDav/FTP plug-ins
2) Create a project 'test'.
3) Create a file 'test.txt' in the project and enter some random text. Save.
4) Share the project using target management. Select FTP protocol. 
5) Specify a known FTP server URL.
6) Create a new folder on the server using 'Create Folder'. Accept the default 
name (test).
7) Finish.
8) Synchronize the project. You will get an overlay that 'test.txt' will be 
added to the server. Upload.

At this point, the behaviour depends on the FTP server. If the server is some 
Unix or Linux box, it will work well. However, if the server is a Windows 2000 
machine with an IIS-based FTP server, there will be differences:

1) When 'Create Folder' is pressed, everything seems fine (check on the server 
shows that 'test' folder is indeed created), but the folder object does not 
appear in the view as a child of the site object. 

2) The folder does not show up in the 'Targets' view as a child of the site 
object either.

3) Upload will put all the files directly under the FTP url, not in the 
specified folder.

Did you test the support with IIS FTP server? Can you try it with your own and 
verify that it works for you? If yes, I will inspect mine to see what is 
different.
