I have in some projects empty folder. I can not upload the empty folder to the webserver.
Yes, this is intentional. Could you please describe your use case why do yo want to upload an empty directory? Thanks.
Hello tmysik! Some apps like z-push, magento, serendipity and sometimes Zend Framework include empty folder. This apps won't work if the empty folder not exist on the server (often you need to change the rights for the folders). Sorry, that not my demand. It's very confusing if you upload a folder from your IDE and than the folder dosen't exsist on the server. Looks like an error! Bye, Ingo
> [...] (often you need to change the rights for the folders) [...] That's exactly the reason why we don't do so - there's no way to change permissions of remote files/folders from NetBeans (please notice that option Preserve Remote File Permissions is something different) so you anyway need some another FTP client to fix this. Another reason is that the Upload/Download window would be _much_ longer because of folders (now, only files are listed). Simple work around could be to create a dummy file in such folder. I will look at this issue whether it's possible or not.
I decided to close this issue as WONTFIX, for reasons please read my last comment. I think that the work aroud with some ".keep" file works well if you really need this functionality. Feel free to reopen this issue if you strongly disagree. Thanks for reporting.
