[VU+ Duo2] Apollo and filezilla

[tomos]

Hi,

Just updated to Apollo all seemed to work fine, until I connected via Filezilla I wanted to Copy the mgcamd ipk file to tmp folder, but I cant access the temp folder on root, the temp folder has a small black arrow by the folder as do several other folders.

Any help gratefully accepted.

Thanks

Tom.

Ive reverted back to helios

no issues here with any of my receivers using Apollo and filezilla with ubuntu.

The arrow just means its a symlink.
You could try adding it to /var/volatile/tmp/ or just install mgcamd from the plugin feeds.

Hi Judge

Thanks for the quick reply, if the folder is a symlink does that prevent from opening the folder.

No. I'd guess it's a setting in your FTP client. Look for something like follow symlinks. I've never had to make any changes using filezilla though.

Which ftp client would you recommend?

 

[judge]

filezilla... That's the one I always use.

No problems here with Filezilla. You are aware Mgcamd can be installed via plugins downloads.

I'll try filezilla from another computer just in case its a setting or problem with this computer thanks for your help

 

[tomos]

No, but ill reinstall Apollo tomorrow and install it via the download, with Apollo do mg_cfg and newcamd.list still get ftp'd to usr/keys?

I normally use FlashFXP under windows but thats not available under Linux and as i have just thrown that MS crap off my laptop (about time too), I'm now using Filezilla.

The Vix cams don't have any configs.

You have misunderstood what was asked and the response. The question was asking to confirm the location to use for the the config files, i,e is it /usr/keys/

That answer was to where the config files should be placed/ftp'd. Not how they should be created.
The link Abu provided above should be enough to get the config files you want working correctly.
