Hi All I;m sure the answer to my question is simple, but it's eluding me I'm trying to FTP files to my server, as part of a migration from new hosting (shared to own server), finally succeeded in getting an ISPConfig to work without erroring out after trying numerous OS's (Centos 6.5, 7, Ubuntu) with Debian 7 I have created the FTP user and associated it to the relevant website When I use FileZilla to FTP connect, It can log in with no issue, but is unable to find the folder? FileZilla Output ... Code: Status: Resolving address of support.mydomain.co.uk Status: Connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21... Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message... Status: Initializing TLS... Status: Verifying certificate... Status: TLS connection established. Status: Connected Status: Retrieving directory listing... Status: Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead. Command: MLSD Error: Connection timed out Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing Any clue?
The problem is your firewall / router. Define a passive port range and a passive IP in pure-ftpd https://samiux.wordpress.com/2009/08/18/howto-passive-mode-for-pure-ftpd-on-ubuntu-server-9-04/ and then open the same ports in your firewall.
tried that - now I can't connect at all ..... Code: Status: Connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21... Error: Connection timed out Error: Could not connect to server Probably related When I tried to Code: service pure-ftpd restart I got the error Code: /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd: No such file or directory
