Error 202

tankards · 04-30-2007, 04:02 PM

I am having trouble with a league i am in. Everytime i try to Export to FTP
The message i get says Error 202

I have downloaded the patch and it is for a pc

Do you have a firewall running or Win XP with the firewall turned on? It might be blocking the program from sending files via FTP. Also, need to make sure that the file you have for your league is setup right for FTP. Could also be that the site is down, but if it's happening all of the time, that's unlikely. I'd check about the firewall first.

tankards · 05-01-2007, 01:45 AM

Ah yes the Firewall. Yeah i turned that off as well. I have Windows XP. and it happens all the time. Any thoughts

Comedian2004 · 05-01-2007, 08:15 AM

A error of 202 in FTP software means:

Command not implemented, superfluous at this site.

But I am not sure what is causing the problem there.

Are you using Norton? See here: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...ight=Error+202

tankards · 05-01-2007, 02:56 PM

Okay so once again. I turned off my firewall. I have Nortan and i shut that off. Still erorr 202. and yes it's stuck at 50% This is getting on my nerve.

Who is your ISP? I found out from an online league that Rogers is problematic for OOTP leagues because of some FTP issue.

If you don't have Rogers it could be your modem. I had the issue where it would stick at 50% and a new cable modem solved the issue for me.

tankards · 05-02-2007, 08:13 AM

yeah i do have Rogers. But i have OOTP 6 and that works just fine. Exports all the time. But not ooopt 7

bp_ · 05-02-2007, 10:18 AM

Did you leave the Norton shut down for a while, maybe even restart without restarting Norton and then try to export? I think someone mentioned it didn't work right away for them when they turned off norton but then it worked a bit later.

I think that was the case for these other owners. After a lengthy discussion on the beta board the only thing that we can point to as the problem is Rogers. They seem to be blocking FTP file transfers.

Your only workaround is to export locally (the non-ftp export option) and then email that export file to your commish so he can manually upload your exports.

Andreas Raht · 05-02-2007, 10:36 AM

tankards, can you please try to upload the file with an FTP client program like SmartFTP? Could you try both Active mode and Passive mode, and send me the FTP client's FTP log?

tankards · 05-02-2007, 11:41 AM

what?? i have no idea what u r talking about

Oops sorry

Downloading the league file works?
Just uploading doesn't work?
We've got the same problem with 2 guys and both have Rogers

They tried everything and it didn't work. They also tried to upload the team export file using an FTP client, and that didn't work too. So we couldn't tell them anything else than using a workaround as mentioned three posts above by bp_

tankards · 05-03-2007, 10:19 AM

So what you're telling me is that im pretty much screwed. I just buy the game thinking that im going to love the game, but now i can't do anything. GREAT. 40 bucks down the drain. GREAT.

Andreas Raht · 05-03-2007, 10:32 AM

40 bucks down the drain because you cannot upload the team file to the server because it doesn't work with that provider? No, I don't think that this is fair, tankards.

Export the team file to your hard drive. It's in the folder /data/saved_games/your league.lg/import_export then. Email it to your commish. That's all.

Or, use an FTP client to upload the file (It will not work with Rogers, I don't know why, please ask them). Of course you need to know how to work with an FTP client, which is not trivial. If you didn't use an FTP client yet, stick with solution #1 please.

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy the game even though you're experiencing this problem.

tankards · 05-03-2007, 11:55 AM

okay so why will ootp 6 work when i export. I am in two leagues and that works. But Next year model OOTP 7 won't work. Why is that.

Comedian2004 · 05-03-2007, 11:59 AM

Do a google search for Total Commander. It is a shareware program with no spyware.

It has a fantastic FTP program built in and it will actually send the ftp files faster than OOTP will. The program also does tons of stuff.

Well that's something new. OOTP 6 works, on the same computer, with the same ISP? I don't know then... OOTP 2007 has a completely new FTP software in it. We'll try to enable FTP log for OOTP 2007 until patch #2 whic would help us to solve such problems. At the moment, I've got no other solution for you than export to disk and email the file to the commish.
