Actually I found out that i forgot to configure the network again ^^, being in virtual machine every aros version is a different filedisk, and i did not deleted the old one, also because i still use it for some experimentation...

so YAFS run fine, but the marranoFTP problems remains.

Hi,

I haven't installed Icaros yet. There are so many things going on right now :) But good thinking with wait 5. As you said, maybe a longer delay is one solution.

If you look an Icaros installation, you'll notice a script in s: called yafs-startup:

notice the "wait 5" line: this asks Icaros to wait 5 seconds and then run YAFSAROS. I needed to add this wait time in order to get the TCP/IP stack already initialized and configured. Maybe Saimon's computer needs more time. Try raising '5' to '10' and you should be fine. Obviously, at boot time the system will need 5 seconds more to boot.

Hi,

I'm the author of YAFS and have some suggestions. If YAFS encounter problems during initialization the server will in most cases simply quit (with return value -1 which can be usefull to detect if the server failed to run). In some cases the server will fill in safe default values for some parameters. This can for example be the IP address (I think so but I'm not sure, have to look at the sources). If the server is unable to retrieve an IP address from the operating system it will default to 127.0.0.1, which is the local host address and will in most cases get the server up and running. This is why I choose this approach, I wanted the server to get up and running at any price without exposing local files in an unsafe way.
If YAFS is started before the DHCP client gets an IP address things may conflict (server uses 127.0.0.1 but the real IP address is something else). Maybe YAFS should be started with a delay of like 60 s to ensure that the system is up and running. Also remember that YAFS can simply be run from its drawer by just double-click on it's icon (I think this will work, I'm not sure how Icaros is configured). This will also give you an output window and you should be able to se error messages, addresses and stuff... Keep asking now that exec is up again :)

Second thing: YAFS

Sometimes YAFS start the server in the virtual machine but from the windows side i cannot connect, i dont know why. Filezilla tries again and again to connect to the given address and receive no response from the virtual machine.
Other times YAFS simply boot fine, like two das ago but yesterday no way. wonder if is because some ip conflict on the network?

Number one: MarranoFTP

looks like if marranoFTP is run the first time has to be quitted using the "quit" button and not the close gadget else will not save addresses in the address book, plus, to save addersses need to be used the "change" button and not the "save button".

Last but not least the windows FTP directory style is not suppored.

This was a group finding on the IRC channel last morning.

Please use this topic to submit any issue you encountered using Icaros 1.1. It will help me addressing them and (hopefully) fixing them before 1.1.1.

Programs that still try to open muimaster v41 could have their executables patched to change the version number (using FileX for example).

Ah. I assumed that as it was included in IcAROS 1.1 that the recompilation had occurred. Oh well.

This is one of the applications which have to be recompiled:
