1 version,. and am trying to do the following..
In short - Access remote machine and browse and EDIT on the fly i.e without creating a local copy. i.e i need to create a ftp connection and start editing the files, create folders etc on the fly
Access the Remote machine - which is working perfectly i.e am able to connect to remote machine
Now i need to browse the files and folders from the remote machine which is also working correctly [see IMAGE]
I need to do the following now .. just open the file ftpfile.tryit (having full permission) from remote machine on the main window and edit it DIRECTLY .. which am not able to perform, all am seeing is the following behavior
When i double-click there is no change/ nothing happens
When i rightclick, i need to copy the file to local machine (in my case it is mac) and then edit it.. which i do not want to do..
Under remote host configuration you can also see mapping tab, where you can to configure mapping between remote and local files. After you finish it, you can double click on file on remote machine and it must open local version, after you finish editing local version you can right-click on main editor window and choose option 'Sync with deployed to...'.
I hope it will help you.

We just virtualized a Windows server in Azure and everything in working fine on Client side, but we are not being able to solve the indexing search problem.
When you have a local drive, Windows can index the path and searches works fine using Windows menu/search box in task bar. But for shared drives it seems to fail.
In Windows Explorer the search pretends to work, but it takes forever to find a file or folder. And sometimes it just won't move anywhere. So it is not an option for users since them are used to search using menu bar.
We have tried to change drive properties in Right button to Shared Driver > "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties, but it was already enabled.
When we try to disable it, it prompts an error saying that the user doesn't have permission to do it, but it does anyway. And when we try to re-enable, the message prompts again, but it is enabled with no problem at all. But once again, nothing changes and Initial Menu Search just won't work.
Does anyone knows if there is a solution for that?
For me it seems to be an server setup since I see that permission error, but, as far as I know, if the shared driver is already mounted, I can't see a reason why Windows can't index it.
Ps.1: In the shared drive security tab, the System has full permissions.
Ps.2: If there is a solution for this, is that possible to solve it on the Windows server Side so we won't need to access client by client to change it manually?
enter image description here
Please check the following setting and see.
1.First thing is to check network location is being indexed. open File Explorer right-click on the mapped network drive that you need to index, then select the Properties and Make sure that, the Allow Files on this Drive to Have Contents Indexed checkbox is selected.
You have already done this step
2.try to check the search options for network drive in file explorer, go to view tab>>click on Options Icon and choose the change folder and search option menu it will open the folder options dialog box and select search tab and make sure first option is not selected
3.check server side Indexing
4.we need to make sure search service needs to be running.
Open services.msc check for the wndows search service and try to restart the service.
5.Go to Settings on the Windows 10 desktop, then click on Search, followed by Searching Windows scroll down and try to run the indexer troubleshooter

The situation is as follows: everything worked perfectly, PhpStorm worked without problems with FTP on the Remote Host tab. But at some point, it suddenly stopped doing it and when I open the project and try to view the contents of the host(s), this happens:
I can not click the [...] button to check the host(s) settings. If I connect to host(s) through another ftp client, everything works fine.
Question: how do I understand what the problem may be, and eliminate it?
Based on your idea.log file the issue seems to be with KeePass file that IDE is uses to store your credentials (logins and passwords). You can check the path to that file at Settings/Preferences | Appearance & Behaviour | System Settings | Passwords
It's either inaccessible (has access permissions issue .. or wrong Master password) .. or is somehow corrupted.
Try this: close IDE, go there, backup that file (just in case) and try to open it with some another program that understands such KeePass format. That's to see if it's good inside.
If it's bad/cannot be used -- just delete it and IDE will create a new one on next launch.
I'm trying to figure out how to autoftp with Filezilla. Are there any other programs that do this right off the bat?
I use WinSCP for some of its amazing benefits. I connect to my FTP server with WinSCP and let it monitor my local folder /website/public_html.
Any changes I make in my local folder automatically get uploaded to my FTP server by WinSCP. The feature is called Keep remote directory up to date:
http://winscp.net/eng/docs/task_keep_up_to_date
As for SCSS, I also use it:
I have a script that opens a console window to watch my /website/scss files and compiles them to /website/public_html/styles/. WinSCP sees the CSS file has changed (or is new) and automatically uploads it.
Notice: The only downside is you cannot reach your error_log as that is automatically generated on the server by PHP. To do this you can easily instantiate another WinSCP to connect to your website. Now you have 1 WinSCP monitoring your local folder and 1 WinSCP where you can access your site map.
If by "autoftp" you mean "update the file on the server whenever I save it" and you're working with code, then I'd recommend the wonderful Notepad++
Notepad++ certainly is wonderful for this particular function and it even saves a cache of the whatever has been accessed and modified from the remote server.
The downside however (for me) is that Notepad++ will not auto-upload preprocessed CSS files like .scss or .less. I tried actually opening the resulting .css files in Notepad++ to mimic the act of editing them, but that still puts an extra step in the process. I have to click over to the tabs and manually save them (after the 'your file as changed prompt').
Currently, after I make changes, I click over to FZ and upload the files manually.
This response is late, but hopefully it will be helpful to those looking to get past Filezilla's "do you want to overwrite" prompt every time a file being edited locally is saved. Unfortunately, the Filezilla developers are staunchly opposed to making this behavior optional. It is a problem for many, especially when working with limited desktop space, since every time the prompt appears, one must expose the hidden filezilla window just to click okay.
Anyway, the answer is WinSCP. It is also free and is so similar to filezilla that I needed no learning to use it immediately.
Cheers!
There is an easier way to do that with NetBeans IDE, there is an option to upload files with FTP or SFTP on save, manually or on Run
Right click on your project and click Properties
Click the second category run configuration
Run As: Choose Remote Website (FTP,SFTP)
Project Url: put your website live link eg www.example.com
Upload files: Choose On Save
Remote Connection > Manage > Add > Connection name (put one) > FTP
Now add your ftp details. Make sure your Initial directory path is correct, (your website path) so you will not accidentally replace any files from other website in the file manager
Unfortunately there no option on filezilla can auto agree upload when file has been changed.
Mobaxtern can do that. You can choose "always upload" when file has been changed.
You can edit the file with any editor, whenever you save, it will upload.
I like to use WebDrive ($40) which mounts a remote server (S)FTP/SSH/Cloud to a local drive (eg. X: on Windows). You can then just do everything to drive X: as if it's a local drive and WebDrive automatically uploads the changes to the remote server.
I use Notepad++ with its NppFTP plugin. I am required to keep local copies up to date, so I edit the local files then upload them to the server. I'm wondering if there is a way for Notepad++ to automatically upload the file to the server as soon as I save it, without me having to press another button.
I'm open to using other FTP programs but I would rather stick with Notepad++ as the text editor
I know this question is slightly dated, but I would just like to put out there to alleviate future confusion for anyone who tries to find an answer to this question that as far as I know, NppFTP currently does this by default. There is a window beneath the main file view area that informs you of current FTP operations. Dreamweaver has started crapping out on me regularly so I had to find an equally powerful solution; it seems like Notepad++ just might be that!
Instead of trying to do this solely with Notepad++, I've gotten a similar workflow using Filezilla as well.
I set Notepad++ as my default text editor (Edit -> Settings -> File Editing -> Use Custom Editor) in Filezilla.
I can right-click on a local file (in Filezilla) and press "edit". Whenever I save the file in Notepad++, Filezilla detects the difference and prompts me to upload the file.
Will reply back to this post once I can get this process to be completely automatic.
Researching about same problem , i found from the Notepad++ Plugin Manager NppNetNote plugin. It allow you to edit both files at time (Local and remote) wich is like edit local and publish.
Edit: I'm sorry. Mistake. Now that plugin is called NppDocShare, and acts as server/client for a live document. You can edit a file from two locations (Notepad++ executions) at twice, but cannot edit two files nor emulates the autoupload.
I'd try the #Gabriel Ryan Nahmias and he's just RIGHT. The NppFTP plugin does that you wanna, but is a little tricky (obvious when you do) to configure.
By default, the program uses a variable path (Global cache: %CONFIGDIR%\Cache\%USERNAME%#%HOSTNAME%) to store the local copy that is uploaded at save. You need to create a pair folder when create a ftp CONNECTION PROFILE to say to NppFTP plugin how you wanna threat the file/connection. Otherwise, the ftp file goes to global.
Once the profile is created, i.e; C:\myfolder\ vs / (/ is relative to ftp) any file Edited or Created will be created/autouploaded to FTP at save. Also, you can open the FTP file, and it will be threated as the local one. Untill you save that, the real local file is not overwritten. If you dont like the file from FTP, simply close file and open from the local folder. So, you can chose which document wanna edit at start :)
Works Like Magic. Now im in love with Notepad++ :)
Extra: The subfolder creation is not magic. This only works from FTP to Local. You can edit a file from FTP subfolder and the folder plus file will be reproduced into local. No way to create from Local to FTP. You must create the ftp subfolder by hand :X (Unexpected)
You can manage files by two ways. Creating a profile per folder/proyect or create multiple local cache directories to a single profile. BUT, only the first one will be available (You will reorder it on each use). No magic here :( and it's more easy to create profiles and choose from the droplist at connect.
Anyway, i think the NppFTP is doing the things very well.
I had the same problem. Solved updating the NppFTP plugin to the latest stable version.
Cheers!
I want to known who is locking a file on a network share.
Here is the problem : the network share is on a NAS, so I can't log on. I need a tool to find out remotely who is locking the file. It is not practical to reboot the NAS every time, because there are several users.
Handle.exe, Process Explorer and PsFile seems to be limited to files on the local machine, so they don't work for me.
Just in case someone looking for a solution to this for a Windows based system or NAS:
There is a built-in function in Windows that shows you what files on the local computer are open/locked by remote computer (which has the file open through a file share):
Select "Manage Computer" (Open "Computer Management")
click "Shared Folders"
choose "Open Files"
There you can even close the file forcefully.
On Windows 2008 R2 servers you have two means of viewing what files are open and closing those connections.
Via Share and Storage Management
Server Manager > Roles > File Services > Share and Storage Management > right-click on SaSM > Manage Open File
Via OpenFiles
CMD > Openfiles.exe /query /s SERVERNAME
See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490961.aspx.
PsFile does work on remote machines. If my login account already has access to the remote share, I can just enter:
psfile \\remote-share
(replace "remote-share" with the name of your file server) and it will list every opened document on that share, along with who has it open, and the file ID if I want to force the file closed. For me, this is a really long list, but it can be narrowed down by entering part of a path:
psfile \\remote-share I:\\Human_Resources
This is kind of tricky, since in my case this remote share is mounted as Z: on my local machine, but psfile identifies paths as they are defined on the remote file server, which in my case is I: (yours will be different). I just had to comb through the results of my first psfile run to see some of the paths it returned and then run it again with a partial path to narrow down the results.
Optionally, PsFile will let you specify credentials for the remote share if you need to supply them for access.
Lastly, a little known tip: if someone clicks on a file in Windows Explorer and cuts or copies the file with the intent to paste it somewhere else, that act also places a lock on the file.
If its simply a case of knowing/seeing who is in a file at any particular time (and if you're using windows) just select the file 'view' as 'details', i.e. rather than Thumbnails, tiles or icons etc. Once in 'details' view, by default you will be shown;
- File name
- Size
- Type, and
- Date modified
All you you need to do now is right click anywhere along said toolbar (file name, size, type etc...) and you will be given a list of other options that the toolbar can display.
Select 'Owner' and a new column will show the username of the person using the file or who originally created it if nobody else is using it.
This can be particularly useful when using a shared MS Access database.
The sessions are handled by the NAS device. What you are asking is dependant on the NAS device and nothing to do with windows. You would have to have a look into your NAS firmware to see to what it support. The only other way is sniff the packets and work it out yourself.
Partial answer: With Process Explorer, you can view handles on a network share opened from your machine.
Use the Menu "Find Handle" and then you can type a path like this
\Device\LanmanRedirector\server\share\
sounds like you have the same problem i tried to solve here. in my case, it's a Linux fileserver (running samba, of course), so i can log in and see what process is locking the file; unfortunately, i haven't found how to close it without killing the responsible session. AFAICT, the windows client 'thinks' it's closed; but didn't bother telling the fileserver.
Close the file e:\gestion\yourfile.dat, open by any user (/a *)
openfiles /disconnect /a * /op "e:\gestion\yourfile.dat"
