    Default FTP: transfer works fine in windows but not in linux machine

    Hi all,

    I'm new and i'm faced to an issue when i transfer files from my ftp server(windows) to my local drive (linux).
    What I want to do is: I need to loop on all directories in my server and copy if there is a file.
    I want to precise that my ftp server is on a windows machine and when I test the code on a windows machine it's work fine, however when i launch it on a linux machine it's does'nt run and doesn't give any error. It's just still loading
    Can anyone help me. Thanks in advance.This is the code:

    import java.io.BufferedOutputStream;

    on a linux machine it's does'nt run and doesn't give any error
    Try debugging the code by adding some println statements to show where the code is executing and what the values of the variables are. The print out should give you some clues about what the problems could be.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Thank you to reply me.
    I've already put many println and this is what happened. On the root directory there are 2 folders and ih those folders there are subdirectories, the code is able to get only the files in the first subdirectories and it's locked here.

    I don't have a linux system for testing. Someone with a linux system may be able to help you, but I think they will like to have a small, complete program that compiles, executes and shows the problem for testing. If the code is having a problem with accessing files in subdirectories, then that is what should be in the testing code without any network code.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

	            }
	        }
 
	    }
}

    This is what i've got when i call the scanFolder() method in a main class.

    public class Main {
 
	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		FTPManager.scanFolder(server,port,user,pwd);
	}
}
