I am trying to upload a file via FTP, but before it is uploaded it has to be renamed to the input of 2 editText's. To do this i use the following code:
public FTPClient client = new FTPClient();
public void upload_klik (View view) {
EditText week_text = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.week_edit);
EditText pagina_text = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.pagina_edit);
String w_val = week_text.getText().toString();
String p_val = pagina_text.getText().toString();
upload_task up = new upload_task();
up.execute(w_val, p_val);
}
protected class upload_task extends AsyncTask<String, Object, String> {
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
String w = params[0];
String p = params[1];
Intent intent = getIntent();
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
String ret = "Done!";
if(!bundle.isEmpty()) {
String afdeling_url = bundle.getString("afdeling_url", "DKW/");
String afdeling_preFix = bundle.getString("afdeling_preFix", "dkw");
String locatie_url = bundle.getString("locatie_url", "/delf_wend/");
String new_fileName = afdeling_preFix +"_" + "w" + w + "_" + "p" + p + ".jpg";
System.out.println(new_fileName);
File f = new File(foto_path);
File sdcard = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
File to = new File(sdcard, new_fileName);
f.renameTo(to);
if(f != null) {
try{
client.setPassive(true);
client.setAutoNoopTimeout(30000);
client.connect(FTP_HOST, 21);
client.login(FTP_USER, FTP_PASS);
client.setType(FTPClient.TYPE_BINARY);
System.out.println(locatie_url + afdeling_url);
client.changeDirectory(locatie_url + afdeling_url);
client.upload(to);
restart();
}
catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
try {
client.disconnect(true);
}
catch (Exception e2) {
e2.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
return ret;
}
}
But when i try to uplaod it Logcat gives me this:

i narrowed the problem to to thwe function f.renameTo(new_fileName)
, it says the result of calling this method is ignored. But why is it ignored? And is there a way around this?
Thank you in advance :)
the error is pretty straight forward is it's all documented:
https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/File.html#renameTo(java.io.File)
https://developer.android.com/reference/java/io/FileNotFoundException.html
I'm betting that if you check if the file exist with the code:
you'll find out that
foto_path
is not an existing file, or maybe you should check thatfoto_path
is also insideEnvironment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
.If it's not in the same mount point you have to copy the file over (with the new name) instead of just renaming.
RenameTo renames the actual file, it doesn't change the File object. If you called .exists() you'd find the new file exists and the old one doesn't.
This is because the File class represents abstract paths rather than actual files on a file system. The idea is that File.renameTo gives a new name to a file system entry at the given path; it does not change the path itself.
