FileZilla Forums

And the latest one being 1.6.5? The problem should be fixed in this one. 1.6.1 and lower has a problem.

You can the run the converter manually. See the following post by developer @oibaf for the syntax:

You're right. I actually didn't have the very latest version. After updating Filezilla Server from version 1.6.1 to version 1.6.5 the config-converter worked perfectly fine. Thank you!

Hi there,

I am also looking for examples of users.xml and groups.xml, are there any docs (examples) which would help me with the new format of users, groups and permissions?

For the examples, you can play around with the Administration Interface and see how users.xml and groups.xml get generated.
There's no formal documentation, but the files do contain comments that explain what each node is meant to mean.

We do have two tasks planned that address this topic:

1. A REST API to expose some of the configurable parts programmatically.
2. An online help that responds to the --help command line parameter.

Yeah in the end I installed it on a VM and did that, tried playing a bit and seeing how the attributes changed in the xml files. But having like the documentation for properties and attributes would be amazing, without it it made the setup process really hard.

Nice, this would make things easier to setup.

Thank you for the info
