Hi Phily,

For IE, you will probably have to change your Tools | Internet Options |Security | Trusted Sites settings to add the tpp site ( http://tpp.wsftp.com/thinclient/Login.aspx ) to your Trusted Sites. Let us know if that helps.

Bye for now,

the concept of the web client is good. the execution is "thin" which matches how you described it.

I too had no luck in downloading. (vista / IE7)

Look at what Microsoft just released with their skydrive.live.com product and you'll see a nicer "skin".

Further test results

50Mb file upload successful -- Around 15mins upload time ( No progress bar or feedback seen)

But again unable to download - Activex window flashes and disappears

Smaller file Residence3.pdf 227k downloads fine - Small activex confirmation window appears and can get at pull down options.

regards

Hello,

1) No progress indicator on file upload
==KG2> Yes, i'm seeing a static Please Wait, but not animation or status.
2) Does not confirm filename or any info of file being uploaded
==KG> Are you looking to overwrite an existing file? If so, did you select "Overwrite Selected Files on the Server"?
==PY Upload of new files
==KG2> On new files, after a successful upload, you should automatically be returned to the main page with a message such as this below:
Successfully uploaded
-doozler101.exe
3) Upload seems slow. ( Using 100Mb Fiber connection to Internet )
==KG> How big was the file? Roughly how long did it take?
==PY> 50Mb file after 10mins failed
4) Upload FAILED with NO ERROR: upload of 50MB file failed at 32.47 mb with no error just back to the login screen
==KG> Sounds like this is related to the slow upload and maybe it timed out. Were you able to log backin?
==PY> yes able to log back in again
5) Download FAILED .... just flashed and then nothing......
==KG> Yes, that sounds strange. Browser info, OS and file size would be helpful.
==PY> See above for OS
==PY> Retest of upload revealed tiny window - with activex download confirmation
==KG2> Good catch. Sounds like the IE6 browser download window is flashing and then moving immediately to the background. Firefox handles it differently Can you see if there is an IE6 browser window hiding behind your current window? Also, are popups allowed in your IE6?
