If you want to avoid troubles with parsing the server-specific directory listing formats, use a 3rd party library that supports the MLSD command and/or parsing various LIST listing formats and recursive downloads.įor example with WinSCP. Use the function like: Dim credentials As NetworkCredential = New NetworkCredential("user", "mypassword")ĭownloadFtpDirectory(url, credentials, "C:\target\directory") Read = sourceStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length) Private Shared Sub FileTransferred(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As TransferEventArgs) SynchronizationMode.Local, "d:\www", "/home/martin/public_html", False) ' Will continuously report progress of synchronizationĪddHandler session.FileTransferred, AddressOf FileTransferredĭim synchronizationResult As SynchronizationResult Local Public Shared Function Main() As Integer
#All files ftp directory vb net database code
and also it uses SynchronizeMode.Remote which uploads from your PC to the FTP server, so in the code below I replaced. Use this code, because the code on is for SFTP (port 22) and not FTP (port 21).

I used the second option of course because it is the best one ever. Session.SynchronizeDirectories to download the files & directories if they does not exists, and also will download the the modified files which already exists.

Session.GetFiles to download even if the files & directories are already downloaded. Or if you are lazy to do it, then just download the library and add the DLL file as a reference in your project.Īnd now let's download the whole directory including its files and its sub-directories to the local storage.
#All files ftp directory vb net database install
It is very simple to do using the WinSCP library which is available for C# and VB.NET - here is the full answer:įirsly, install the WinSCP library to your project, see here: I KNOW YOU MIGHT BE LAZY TO READ ALL THAT, BUT THIS IS THE ANSWER!!! THE CODE IS AT THE END :D
