Firewall Settings? Network Configuration Change (eg. groups, new to Windows 7)?

The FTP server is Running in Labview Real time and I use anonymous FTP

I can Manually from the dos prompt do a ftp get of the file successfully.

Yeah, I would also suspect changes in firewalls/groups as tyk007 mentioned. Additionally, there are a variety of changes in Windows 7 regarding security settings for applications. It may be that Windows 7 is blocking firewall access to some LabVIEW component, whether it is the application instance or a background service.

 

I'd suggest disabling the firewall and checking the security/permission settings for LabVIEW.

The Firewall is disabled.

How do I confirm the security settings for Labview.

My FTP communications are all on a private network.

Hi tsb,

 

Can you try switching the FTP calls to passive instead of active? This can reduce firewall related issues. Additionally, based on a some research I've done internally, this can specifically help FTP related transfer when uploading to an RT system.

The firewall is disabled and I set to connection to passive immediately after the anonymous FTP logon.

Do you have any other computers that you can try this from? Do you have any other versions of LabVIEW that you can try?
