That’s a bit strange. I am not aware of any changes. I will try looking into that. It is just that I am still down with sickness. So it might take a while still. Sorry. ---

Hi @Peter_Kawa , can you please try if FTP still works to find out if it’s my local problem or a system/app problem? Thanks in advance. When I open the App settings, HTTP and FTP Servers are both running, is this standard? ---

Yes, still works fine on my Pro 19’s, Jan. I use the ‘normal’ ipv4 IP address, like `192.168.2.x:5081`, not the `homey-62xxxxxxxxxxxx:5081` address like mentioned in the app settings. And it doesn’t work with ftp client setting “passive mode”, maybe you have it enabled? > [@JPe4619](#): > > HTTP and FTP Servers are both running, is this standard? You can disable auto launch for the FTP service, Jan: Only the description above it needs a little update ![1000000479](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/f/afc762c835eceb9ee322ca8f78bd43df08a4d2b1.jpeg) ---

Thanks Peter, this means it is my local problem. Tried all this but still no result, the connection is established but the LIST command does not work. There are several sound files on it and they can be played, so the LIST command should have to show these files. In active mode it takes a few seconds before the response message and the error is displayed. Any other suggestions that I can try? @robertklep Any idea? ---

Apparently, the Micro Web Server app doesn’t support passive mode: ```auto 14:56:32 Command: PASV 14:56:32 Response: 502 Command not supported 14:56:32 Command: PORT 192,168,2,11,197,4 14:56:32 Response: 200 The requested action has been successfully completed 14:56:32 Command: LIST 14:56:37 Response: 425 No connection established ``` That means that the FTP server needs to be able to make a network connection with your PC (on IP address 192.168.2.11), and it looks like that’s being blocked, probably by a firewall. The annoying thing about this is that the port number to which the server connects will be different every time (that’s why active mode sucks and FTP servers should support passive mode) so all you can do is somehow whitelist your Homey to allow access to all ports on your PC. ---

Thanks Robert, apparently I added the passive-mode logging, here is a logging in active-mode: ```auto 12:48:43 Status: Connecting to 192.168.2.22:5081... 12:48:43 Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message... 12:48:43 Status: Insecure server, it does not support FTP over TLS. 12:48:44 Status: Logged in 12:48:44 Status: Retrieving directory listing... 12:48:44 Command: PWD 12:48:44 Response: 257 "/" 12:48:44 Command: TYPE I 12:48:44 Response: 200 Switch to "binary" transfer mode. 12:48:44 Command: PORT 192,168,2,11,20,240 12:48:44 Response: 200 The requested action has been successfully completed 12:48:44 Command: LIST 12:48:49 Response: 425 No connection established 12:48:49 Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing 13:00:43 Status: Disconnected from server ``` Does this give a better view on the problem?

Hello, I’m trying to create an HTML file in HomeyScript, that then can be hosted by Micro Webserver. I am having trouble storing the file. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks. ---

You have to create such a file with a simple text editor, and save it as .html With Micro Web Server, you can FTP that file to the folder it should sit in. Make sure the Micro Web Server’s FTP server is running ![Screenshot_20260313_170644_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/b/7b50d6a06bad282ab38ddbb6e213701fa7546d7a.jpeg) Now, with an FTP program like FileZilla you can send it to the right Micro Web Server folder `ftp://homeys.ip.address:5081/name/of/folder/` Example Define the FTP connection ![Screenshot_20260313_171105_Total Commander](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/d/edd7f3397de3bb10deeed6bb69868aea6fd015bd.jpeg) When connection is established, you can copy the .html file from the local storage folder to the FTP / web server folder ![Screenshot_20260313_171734_Total Commander](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/9/f9a6b4d1dbf47502fa1052c676f23e18e09ddbd7.jpeg) ---

I see. It should be possible by using adv. flow with Homeyscript “Run code […]” card, and save the result as file, by using a yet to be created and requested flow card of the FTP Client app > **[FTP Client | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/nl.qluster-it.FtpClient/FTP-Client/)** > > Control FTP Servers through a directory-based UI in the Homey App or Web App. ---

Thanks Peter, So there’s no way to write directly to the folder that Micro Web Server is using. I have the HomeyScript function ready for creating the html file. Is it also not possible to FTP from HomeyScript? Otherwise I guess I have to write it to an external web server using an API.
