[NEW : FileZilla FTP/FTPS/SFTP client for Asportal] v. 3.XX

Post by father.mande »

Hi,

Please find attach the apkg to add a FTP/FTPS/SFTP FileZilla client to Asportal

DUE TO A TOTAL new architecture ... the update do a full replacement (like uninstall / then fresh install)
SO PLEASE save your connections information before updating from 3.10 : launch filezilla use export in file menu and export settings in safe place (/share/Public for ex.) OR save folder /home/admin/.config/filezilla/

[Name]
FileZilla (FTP/FTPS/SFTP client)

[Versions]
APKG 3.999.0
... Filezilla AT DELIVERY but updatable : 3.46.3

official changelog : https://filezilla-project.org/versions.php
3.10.2 (obsolete)
Last version compatible with libraries used in Asustor

[Tested on]
AS5002T

[Changelog]
... APKG use an isolated Ubuntu 20.04 (focal) L.T.S as base of filezilla
... ... SECURITY are maximized (except for kernel and Xorg / Asportal always under Asustor responsibility)
... ... this imply INTERNAL UPDATE mechanism for libraries / security and filezilla itself (to do regularly)
... ... so version of the APKG is fake and don't reflect filezilla version : 3.46.3 at delivery ...
... APKG update can exist BUT only to solve bugs in the A.D.M. part ... Ubuntu and your settings are not modified
... APKG are isolated and have NO access to all share
... ... only Public and Download (if exist) are accessible using same PATH in Ubuntu : /share/Public or /share/Download (if exist)
... ... you can add, easily, more share (or create one specifically) eventually you can access the A.D.M. structure but it's dangerous
... one command is provide to simplify running actions (optional and essentially for update) : filezilla_mngt
... ... useful to configure your timezone (to get correct file stamp)
... ... useful to update Ubuntu 20.04 and filezilla (if update is available)

Code: Select all

 # filezilla_mngt
Usage: /usr/local/bin/filezilla_mngt {start|stop|restart|status} for THE APKG ... (ubuntu + filezilla)
Usage: /usr/local/bin/filezilla_mngt {apkg_enable|apkg_disable} ... do same as AppCentral admin WebUI for managing APKG (include Web icon management
...... /usr/local/bin/filezilla_mngt {ubuntu_set_time_zone} ... set your OWN TIME ZONE ... if error (tzdata not installed ... use ubuntu_package_install)
...... /usr/local/bin/filezilla_mngt {update_ubuntu} ... update Ubuntu 20.02 libraries (security)
...... /usr/local/bin/filezilla_mngt {ubuntu_package_install} [Package_name] ... install a pakacge in Ubuntu (ex. tzdata) ... good to use update_ubuntu before to avoid version problems
...... /usr/local/bin/filezilla_mngt {enter_in_ubuntu} enter in chroot as root for maintenace purpose
... APKG tested on AS5002T BUT all model x86_64 with Xorg and Asportal must be supported.

[WORKLOAD info]
... when filezilla is not started ... nothing use CPU ... only small memory footprint for dbus
... when filezilla start to run ... no overhead ... native run, only small memory added for updated libraries (even existing in A.D.M.)
... when you disable the APKG ... all is clean
... compare to previous version ... the disk space used is extended (include basic Ubuntu 20.02 L.T.S.)


[Download]
APKG 3.999.0 : https://www.father-mande.ovh/A/apkg/fil ... x86-64.apk

Have fun.
Philippe.

Hi,
silentjay wrote:not working on as5304t for some reason
I have to check, even I own only an AS5002T (with hardware instability)
Can you explain the symptoms
... App. don't start ? when you click on Asportal icon ?
... if start ... any error in log (system via dmesg command AND Asustor log (2 logs one in App. Central the other in system information)

Please also provide A.D.M. version ... perhaps some new libraries not compatible.

I am back (after 3 months) in my lab ... so if my AS5002T accept to run, I can run some more tests, I will write back as soon as possible.

Philippe.

Hi,

O.K. I have found a change in a Path for x11 library in last A.D.M. 3.4 3.5
I will propose you to do a change yourself, just wait ... I will run some tests.

If new users, like you use filezilla on Asportal ... I will look to update the client ... due to inactivity, I don't do this before.

Hi,

To inform you ...

Adding the missing Path to lib ... solve launch problem
BUT ... if SFTP (I don't use FTP for my own due to security problem) work as usual .. a strange error occurs with FTP : eai_badflags ... I don't get any information ... but I suppose (after tracing filezilla) that it's an incoherence in the libs ... and kernel .

If you used SFTP (FTP on SSH) please do the change yourself

Open a ssh terminal with root / your_admin_password (use root not admin)
... go to filezilla bin folder
cd /usr/local/AppCentral/filezilla/bin
... save wrapper
cp -p filezilla_wrapper filezilla_wrapper.bak
... edit wrapper ... take care on escape special characters (\) don't forget it
sed -i "/export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/ s/$/:\$XORG_PATH\/lib/" filezilla_wrapper

It's all
Now filezilla will start as usual ... but SFTP only ... don't forgot to fill in advanced tab the field : "default remote directory" to your usual shared folder .

I will work on a solution (even creating a new APKG approach) ... but I need some time (my free time is limited)
sorry for the inconvenience (seem nobody use it ... and as a "old" Linux guy I prefer command line tools ... ) :roll: :mrgreen:
