    Default TFTP Server not allowing data transfer

    Hi all, my TFTP server I want to use as a template will not alllow me to send or recieve data. Any advice would be great as I don't know if its possibly a folder access problem on my PC. Here is the code:



    public class TFTPS {
     
        /**
         * @param args the command line arguments
         */
     
            // TODO code application logic here
         public static final int tftpRRQ=1;
     	  public static final int tftpWRQ=2;
    	  public static final int tftpDATA=3;
    	  public static final int tftpACK=4;
    	  public static final int tftpERROR=5;
     
    	  public static final int maxTftpPakLen=516;
     
    	  public static void main(String argv[]) {
                  int port = 69;
    	    try {
    	      DatagramSocket sock = new DatagramSocket(port);
    	      System.out.println("Server Ready.  Listening on port:  "+sock.getLocalPort());
     
    	      for(;;) {
    	        UdpData reqData = new UdpData(maxTftpPakLen);
    	        DatagramPacket reqPak = reqData.mkPacket();
     
    	        sock.receive(reqPak);
     
    	        if (reqData.getInt(0)==tftpRRQ) {
    	          System.out.println("Request from "+reqPak.getAddress());
    	          tftpTransfer t = new tftpTransfer(reqPak);
    	        }
    	      }
    	    }
    	    catch(Exception e) { System.out.println("Server terminated"); }
    	  }
    	}



    class UdpData {
     
    private byte data[];
     
     	  public UdpData(int len) { data = new byte[len]; };

    	    return new DatagramPacket(data,len,dest,port);
    	  };
     
    	  public int getInt(int offset) {
     
    	    // Fix to avoid sign extension
     
    	    // Remember what the MSB is and then turn it off to avoid sign extension.  It is

    	}


    class tftpTransfer {
     
    protected DatagramSocket sock;

        protected int clientPort;
        protected FileInputStream source;

            UdpData reqData = new UdpData(reqPak);
     
            File srcFile = new File(reqData.getString(2));
     
            if (srcFile.exists() && srcFile.isFile() && srcFile.canRead()) {
              source = new FileInputStream(srcFile);
              dataPak = new UdpData(516);                             // 516==max pak len
              dataPak.putInt(3,0);                                    // 3==DATA opcode
     
              this.start();     //This also seems to be an isssue
            }
          } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println("Client failed"); };
        }
     
        public void run() {
          int bytesRead = 512;
          DatagramPacket ack = new DatagramPacket(new byte[4],4);
     
          try {
            for (int blkNum=0; bytesRead==512; blkNum++) {            // 512==max data len
              dataPak.putInt(blkNum,2);
              bytesRead = source.read(dataPak.getData(),4,512);
              sock.send(dataPak.mkPacket(clientIP,clientPort,516));   // 516==max data len + header
     
              sock.receive(ack);
            }
          } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println("Client failed"); }
     
          try {
            source.close();
            sock.close();
          } catch (Exception e) {};
        }
    }

    I have had a few late nights (5am) trying to solve this, to no avail so I have decided to seek advice.

    Default Re: TFTP Server not allowing data transfer

    Are there error messages when it "not alllow me to send or recieve data"?

    Is the code executing the parts that would send or receive data?

    Have you tried debugging the code to see what it does when it executes? Add some printlns to show the execution flow and the values of variables that are used.

    Be SURE to add calls to printStackTrace to all the catch blocks so you get the full text and location of any errors.


    The posted code will not compile. The main problem is there are no import statements. Please fix the code so it will compile if you want help testing it.

    I have used WireShark while connecting with a client but all it shows is the client requesting a "Write Request", the server just does not respond, resulting in the client timing out. The server and WireShark report no errors. I have tried debugging, but this was little help as I have not used this tool very much. I just did some print lines and it seems to be a problem with the tftpTransfer class. Thanks for that advice.

    Can you be more specific? What happens in that class that makes you think there is a problem?

    Did some more debugging the server is getting to here:

    public int getInt(int offset) {
    	System.out.println("Getting to GetInt");
    	    // Fix to avoid sign extension
     
    	    // Remember what the MSB is and then turn it off to avoid sign extension.  It is
    	    // then added back to the sum after everything has been converted to integers.
     
    	    byte lo = data[offset+1];
    	    int signBit = (int)(lo&0x80);
    	    lo&=0x7f;
     
    	    // Standard TCP/IP byte order is hiByte followed by loByte (big endian)
     
    	    int hiByte = (int)data[offset];
    	    int loByte = (int)lo;
     
    	    return (hiByte<<8)+signBit+loByte;
    	  };
     
    	  public void putInt(int val, int offset) {
    	    int loByte = val%256;
    	    int hiByte = val>>>8;
     
    	    // Standard TCP/IP byte order is hiByte followed by loByte (big endian)
     
    	    data[offset] = (byte)hiByte;
    	    data[offset+1] = (byte)loByte;
    	  };
     
    	  public String getString(int offset) {
    	    StringBuffer strBuf = new StringBuffer();
    	    int curPos = offset;
     
    	    while (data[curPos]!=0) {
    	      strBuf.append((char)data[curPos]);
    	      curPos++;
    	    }
     
    	    return new String(strBuf);
    	  };
     
    	  public void putString(String str, int offset) {
    	    str.getBytes(0,str.length(),data,offset);
    	    data[offset+str.length()]=0;
    	  };
    	}


    Then timing out. with the following displayed at the command line:

    Server Ready. Listening on port: 69
    Getting to GetInt
    Getting to GetInt
    Getting to GetInt
    Getting to GetInt
    Getting to GetInt

    This is in the UdpData class, so the problem could be here, also this line
    str.getBytes(0,str.length(),data,offset);
    is showing in my code with a line through "getBytes" anychance this could be the cause.

    I have no idea what "a line through" means.

    What are the values of all the variables used in that statement?


    What does that print out tell you? Is that what you expect to see when the code executes?


    The TftpTransfer class you first posted does not compile without errors.
    You have a comment on the statement with the error.
    There is no way to execute it when it has errors on my system.

    Which classes did you make source changes to for the second post?

    No the print out is just a println I placed there as a debug. This shows that the server gets the clients request but it goes no further.

    How can I test it? Do you have a client program that goes with it?

    Default Re: TFTP Server not allowing data transfer

    Its just a stand alone server so I have been using Tftpd32 App TFTPD32 : an opensource IPv6 ready TFTP server/service for windows : TFTP server , to connect to the server this running on a Virtual Machine, I have also tested it using a Cisco router to back up the routers configuration files none of which worked. Though I keep getting access denied error when I try to do this on my all on the same PC, i.e. client and server.

    I have no client code for testing the server.

    Which when used displays:

    Getting to
    Getting to
    Getting to
    Getting to
    Request from /30.0.0.2
    Getting to reqPak
    Getting to sourcefile

    At the command prompt. It will not do this with any other client.

    Sorry for the delay in answering your questions, it seems to partially work when connecting to the server using a client (code above) that came as part of this server template. But it still will not work using a standard TFTP client i.e. command line etc. I understand its hard to test without some form of network. I have a network at home for my Cisco studies so I am able to do this.

    What is a "standard TFTP client"?
    How is its protocol different from the client code you posted?

    Default Re: TFTP Server not allowing data transfer

    I need this server to work with the TFTP clients that are coded into routers and switches opperating systems, also with the Windows 7 built in TFTP client that runs from the command line. I just can't understand why it will not transfer data even though its looping through the code. I have specified file to transfer on the client to the server, the server responds to connection but I am still getting a time out on the client and no file is transferred. Its all good fun but!

    What is the difference between the protocol the posted code has and that of the other TFTP client programs you want to use?

    the server responds to connection but I am still getting a time out on the client
    Add printlns to show everything that the server does.
    One thing I noticed with the code you posted was that the code did not consider reducing the number of bytes sent if they were less than 512. It sent a block of data padded with binary 0s, instead of reducing the buffer to the number of bytes being sent.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Yes I think I will be spending a few more late nights trying to solve this. But I will add some additional printlns and see what it shows.
