error: is not a valid path

[Jen]

I've been trying to get the FileExplorer to read an FTP path, but I'm getting the following error: is not a valid path. The string looks something like this: ftp://number.number.number.number:port

I would recommend looking into this documentation article and then follow up on that by looking at this demo on how to implement it. You will basically have to use a custom FileBrowserContentProvider in order to use an FTP path.

I've been using that article and demo, but what do I use as path? If I use ftp:, I get the error above.

Hi Jen,

In your case you need to implement a custom FileBrowserContentProvider. In addition to the resources that Schlurk provided, I suggest to check this KB article as well.
