Hi again all,
I've recently started having problems FTPing Satan files to my 500, and I receive this message:

An error occured copying a file to the FTP server. Make sure you have permission to put files on the server.
Details:
200 Binary it is, then.
227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,0,24,49,45)
553 Could not create file.

I've recently upgraded to Gemini 4.2, I'm pointing at 19E for D+, and I use Windows to FTP.
I have DreamBoxEdit on my PC, but I do not use it too often, and this message looks like the language used in this program.
I do try and FTP each file seperately, to try and get a picture which works someimes, but this message is starting to get annoying.
Also, after FTPing the files singly, and then rebooting, the Dreambox will display: Fatal Error, and I have to pull the plug to re-start it.
Can anyone offer any advice, or should I just re-flash and start again? I'm also considering unintalling DreamBoxEdit in case it's somehow messing things up.
Thanks in advance.

You're FTPing the files to /var/keys and /var/scce/ (as appropriate)?

You're using the correct username and password e.g. root and dreambox?

Yes, the only thing I've changed lately is the new image (upgraded from Gemini 4).

Ok, I've just re-flashed Gemini 4.2, scanned 19E, added MgCamd 1.27 (and config), FTPed Satan files, and no problem, all is good again.
I'm still not sure why that error came up, but it's all working again and I can look forward to the footie tonight.
Cheers everyone, Dreambox rules OK.

It normally happens when you run out of space; var needs to be no more than 80% full.

Good news that you got it sorted :)

Sorry mhku our posts overlapped. My var couldn't have been too full as I only had MgCamd and CCcam installed. I'm sure it wasn't for that reason but at least it's ok now.
It is just because the error message looked familiar to language similar to that used in DreamBoxEdit which made me wonder.
Thanks for the replies though, and keep up the good work.

hi johnlk2 can you tell me what is the advantage of having both CCcam and mgcamd installed??? I currently have CCcam installed with a sky freesat card have access to 28e 19e 13e. I heard you mention the word footie and would love to get instructions as to how i might be able to access some.
Thanks

You can get football on 19e, Premier Sport Portal. Use the green button o chose the sport package you want to view. You can get the english audio as well using the audio button.

Hi patoinsf, the CCcam is for when I am pointing at 28E with my $ly Freeview card, and the MgCamd (in conjunction with some keys) is for 19E, for the Premier Sport Portal as described above by john_graydon.
Good luck.

Well done patoinsf, good to hear you've got it working. Check out the film channels too (Prem 1 to 4, and the Prem film portal all with English audio option), but be aware it also unlocks a mature content portal too (called Erotic AB 18 or similar).
Legend :)

By the way, no need to remove the channels, simply set the parental lock with a password, and the kids cannot open them. If you want to be even more secure, you can tick the box so the locked channels are not visible, only once you remove the parental lock.

While you are at it lock also the Beate Uhse channel, also mature content.

Hope you are an Arsenal fan otherwise it would have been a disappointment
