Web Media via FTP

Hi,

Can one still use FTP to download Web Media blocks in IA8? It worked fine in 7.5...

I can't seem to get it working again for the new version of our installation.

Is it possible to have a log for the actual download bit?

Thanks,
D.

FTP works, but not with passwords. If you are using passwords, you should now use HTTPS URLs, which did not work previously.

Thanks...

Damn

I need to use user names & passwords ... (Company policy)

Was this change listed in the documentation?

Regards,

You can still use passwords, but with HTTPS, instead of FTP. Our customers rated HTTPS support higher above FTP, so we had to implement this change. Unfortunately this was a breaking change!
