HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: Where is information stored?

« Last post by darkrats on April 05, 2023, 05:11:33 PM »

in the save options menu you can decide WHERE to store options.
By default it saves to Windows Registry.
TPL and VFS are in separated files that you already have found.

Can you tell me where in the registry? I did a search and found 4 locations but none of them contained user names.

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Where is information stored?

« Last post by darkrats on April 05, 2023, 05:05:05 PM »

I'm trying to figure out where information is stored so if I reformat and restore my hard drive, I don't have to enter it all again. In my HFS folder there are three files: HFS.TPL, SAVED1.VPS and SAVED1.VPS.BAK. I assumed the information was stored in one of these files. When I removed those three files, the virtual file system I had set up disappeared as expected. However I saw that the user names and passwords were still there, so that information must be stored elsewhere, but I can't find it. And to make things worse, when I put those three files back, my virtual file system just showed empty. What's is going on? It's going to be a real bother if I have to type everything all over again.

Solved part of the problem. It's not enough to replace the files, you have to load the virtual file system.
That leaves the question of where the user names are stored.

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: Documents view in browser

« Last post by JonJonBravo on April 05, 2023, 04:12:43 PM »

Looking in the sources of this extension, I've found it includes 2 types of MIME for XLS.

Try to use the following MIME (when doing these steps), for the XLS:

*.xls
application/msexcel

Change "application/vnd.ms-excel" to "application/msexcel"
If that doesn't work, then I had no idea on how to solve this, sorry...

Unfortunately it didn't work. Anyway, thanks for the help. You helped me a lot.

Yes, almost all documents now open in the browser.     Only XLS keeps downloading

I'm glad you almost got everything working.

Give me some time, to try to solve the XLS problem...

Bug reports / Re: Stuck when is downloading.

« Last post by LeoNeeson on April 05, 2023, 10:05:15 AM »

Yes, I have read that they are developing the other one and it is great, but it does not have an option that I really like in 2.3, which allows you to copy the download link with the username and password included, or at least I have not found how to activate that option, example

http://user:password@link.com

What happens with my current 2.3 is that for some reason there are many people downloading, it stops and then you have to restart it, I don't understand why.

You are right, HFS3 will probably never have that kind of login style, since it's considered deprecated by today's web standards (and passing Basic Authentication parameters in URL, is not recommended). Perhaps Rejetto could add a similar scheme in HFS3, in the style of:

http://link.com/?username=TestUser&password=TestPassword
(but anyway, this kind of authentication is not considered secure)

Thank you and sorry for not posting the data

Thanks for your reply. When you say HFS "crashes", I assume that it closes it's self (something different than "hanging up" or "freezing"). If HFS closes its self, as workaround you could try using WatchCat (which automates the process of restarting HFS, if it closes or if stop responding).

If it works when using HFS3, then we could make it work with HFS2.
Your last message reminded me a very important step that I've forgotten.

Please try this:

1) In HFS press F5 to switch to expert mode (if you are not already using it).

2) Go to: Menu > Other options > Open directly in browser...

It opens a window, showing this list:

Code: [Select]

*.htm;*.html;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.gif;*.png;*.txt;*.swf;*.svg
Now, add to the end of that list the following:

Code: [Select]

;*.pdf;*.doc;*.docx;*.xls;*.xlsx;*.ppt;*.pptx
Or replace all the text with this:

Code: [Select]

*.htm;*.html;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.gif;*.png;*.txt;*.swf;*.svg;*.pdf;*.doc;*.docx;*.xls;*.xlsx;*.ppt;*.pptx
Please report if that solves your issue or not.
(and sorry for my forgetfulness)

In the HFS3 being developed, there are no problems with opening. This version has an Open menu
