I get an error screen 2345-0021 when I try to send files to the switch using both the builds from tannhuser and m4xw. Large numbers of small files fail after a few files, and large files fail after a certain percentage. I haven't done any testing to see if it's consistent after a certain number of bytes or whatever, but it seems like that might be the case.

Using hekate, FW 5.1.0.

LibnxError_BadGfxDequeueBuffer

Don't use it docked

While running the FTP server over wifi and being connected to it on my PC, my switch idled out and entered sleep mode. I have not been able to connect to the FTP server again when it is running over wifi. I have rebooted every way I can think of, tried different versions of ftpd and I am still unable to connect when using wifi. Has anyone run into a similar issue or have a possible solution to this problem? (Using hekate and FW 2.3.0 btw)

Use the special DNS servers. When you try to connect, your switch will say "you need to sign in" or something and let you connect to the network without actually going online.

Then FTPD will work.
You have the link for the special DNS servers ?

I fixed my issue by deleting the wifi network in the switch settings and adding it again :D

The issue is definitely 100% with the hidden license file on the sd card. A format will fix it for sure if u can’t see and remove it by unhiding files.

I know that will work because I have done it. After you format, use the updated ftpd.

For MAC users: OS-X creates a hidden ".license_request.dat" file on the root of the sd card that causes FTPd to not function properly.

I thought you said OSX creates that file. I've never used OSX with this card, I don't even have access to a Mac. This is a great suggestion, but I'm hesitant because my microSD is huge and it will take a while to move everything off, format, then move everything back on. If you're SURE there's a hidden file, shouldn't there be a way to delete it on Windows? I have hidden files visible and am not seeing it, so is there some trick?

I was using OS-X to deal with it. So I can’t say for sure in Windows. I did format the sd card in a Windows virtual machine though to avoid any issues with exFAT.

I was also able to physically see the license file via FileZilla browser in Windows VM and OS-X and it’s size was 0. I wasn’t able to delete it via FileZilla FTP browser, so that’s when I decided to format.

Also, in windows you want select all content on the sd card before ejecting the card and clicking properties and navigating to the check box where u can uncheck archiving... as this has been known to some users to cause further issues because it creates hidden files that are not needed by sx os.

In the time it takes to troubleshoot though, in all honesty you could back up, format and put your files back on the card. Might as well. Cleanest solution. And prolly quickest if nothing else is working.

The only license file I can see in FileZilla is 64 bytes, not 0 bytes. I deleted it anyway and am still having the same issue.

An awesome way to prevent going forward, so thank you for that, but doesn't necessarily fix the issue at hand.
