Hello,

 

I'm testing the PB 2021 Beta taking a PB 2019 R2 project as a reference, the project is deployed on PowerServer Web 2019 and it uses Appeon FileServer. After updating my code to the new version and deploying it using CloudApp, when I try to do the part that uses the FileServer in the app(checking if a file exists, and then downloading it), it does nothing, it not even shows an error. Is PB 2021 compatible with Appeon FileServer?

 

Thank you.

Hi Claudio;

  PowerServer 2021 unlike PS2019 or PS2020 does not have a built-in FTP feature like its predecessors.

  Instead, I would look at a solution like Roland's free FTP implementation for PB Apps ...

http://www.topwizprogramming.com/freecode_ftpclient.html

If you need a more complex FTP solution, then this is another great bolt-on for PB Apps...

Adding to what Chris said, PowerServer 2021 supports ~100% of PowerBuilder features so basically anything you can do in client/server you can now do in the Cloud. We no longer need to resort to workarounds, like the previous file server, the appeon_workarounds.pbl, etc.

Hi Claudio, 

With PowerServer 2021, you can use the standard ASP.NET Core technique to implement the file server function, such as what’s explained at: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/mvc/models/file-uploads?view=aspnetcore-5.0.

Best regards, Julie
