• FTP directory
• Erase all of the ftp directory before using

If you want JExpress to upload your files to your ftp site, then fill in the name of the host. Although you can use an ordinary ftp program to manage your own uploads, JExpress offers several major advantages: 1) it stores your files in a temporary directory until all the files are ready so users don't retrieve mixed versions; 2) it makes a backup of the previous version on your ftp site so you can quickly revert if an unforeseen error occurs in the new version; 3) it creates an necessary subdirectories; and 4) it is persistent to insure all the files are stored correctly.

Do not include ftp: in the host's name. You simply want the name or IP address of the ftp server in this field.

Required field if you want JExpress to upload your installer/updater.

Enter the login name of a valid user who can access your ftp site with read/write/create privileges.

Required field if you want JExpress to upload your application for you.

Supply the corresponding ftp password.

Required field if you want JExpress to move your app/applet to your site.

Fill in the directory where you want the distribution files on your ftp server. The user name you supplied must have read, write, and create privileges for this directory. Required field if you want JExpress to upload for you.

Check this box, if you'd like JExpress to erase all the files in the directory, and its subdirectories, on the ftp server before JExpress uploads your most recent distribution files.

We strongly recommend that you check this box to insure that old files from previous versions aren't included in your new distribution. If it is more important to upload at maximum speed, leave this option unchecked. Also, if you do not want a backup copy of your previous version on your web site, then leave this box unchecked.

IMPORTANT: If you check this box, then JExpress will delete all the subdirectories under this ftp directory, so be sure that's OK. Also, your ftp server must support the standard Unix style commands to list the directory entries, supply a standard Unix style listing, and accept the standard Unix delete commands.
