InstallAware

Hello,

I would like to use my FTP site for web updates.
I have not been successful in getting the web updates to work - I noticed that the updates fails because of the login details that one needs to enter to gain access to the FTP site.(This was not so with the HTTP site I successfully tested with earlier)

How do I handle a web update that requires logging into the FTP site before it can download the updates.ini file?
Is there a place we can give the login details?

Not for FTP, you need to use HTTP when supplying login details.

However we have a new Download File plug-in which should enable this to work with passwords both on FTP and HTTP. Please contact me privately if you would like to participate in testing it.

I would like to use FTP with username & password as well. I'm currently using FTP anonymous on our web server, but I'm finding that many web hosting services do not offer the FTP/anonymous for security reasons. I like FTP better than http because of the terrible time I have with it crashing is past Installaware versions.

Q. Is the FTP plugin working or still in testing?

This should already be in InstallAware 9.

I have the latest, greatest IA Stuio 9, but cannot find any help docs on the "Download File" plugin. Help.......
