I'm having trouble getting ASCII transfers to work on some servers. I click on the "Transfer" menu, go to "Transfer type" and select ASCII. But when I transfer a .html file, I see the following in the message log:Quote:Status: ConnectedStatus: Starting download of /tmp/thanks.htmlCommand: CWD /tmpResponse: 250 Directory successfully changed.Command: TYPE AResponse: 200 Switching to ASCII mode.Command: PASVResponse: 227 Entering Passive Mode (72,32,74,160,236,53)Command: RETR thanks.htmlResponse: 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for thanks.html (547 bytes).Response: 226 File send OK.Status: File transfer successfulWhy does it say BINARY mode data connection? It's only doing this on some of the servers I use. I have another server that's working just fine. Here's a log excerpt from it:Quote:Status: ConnectedStatus: Starting download of /temp/guid.plCommand: CWD /tempResponse: 250 CWD command successfulCommand: PWDResponse: 257 "/temp" is current directory.Command: TYPE AResponse: 200 Type set to ACommand: PASVResponse: 227 Entering Passive Mode (208,110,83,187,187,117).Command: RETR guid.plResponse: 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for guid.pl (99 bytes)Response: 226 Transfer complete.Status: File transfer successfulI didn't notice this with previous versions of FileZilla. Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks,-dougl Top Profile Reply with quote botg Post subject: Re: ASCII Mode Not WorkingPostPosted: 2009-02-19 22:23 Offline Site Admin Joined: 2004-02-23 20:49 Posts: 28510 First name: Tim Last name: Kosse Broken servers, some do not support ASCII transfers. You have to contact the server administrator so that he can fix it.

Coincidentally, ever since the day they added that area to their IPv6 network, no FTP connection was possible. The ISP was able to set this specific connection back to IPv4 (for a limited amount of time) and...FTP worked again. Original descirption of the problem I've a TCP level problem between FTP clients and FTP servers (I think it's a proftp http://serverfault.com/questions/609220/ftp-client-server-failing-on-switching-to-pasv-mode server but I'm not sure). Upon requesting PASV mode for data transfer, the client receives an ACK but does not receive the 227 entering passive mode message. The client waits for 30 seconds before it sends a TYPE A request which the server tries to ACK, but with the wrong SEQ number. The SEQ number contains the size of the Enter passive mode message. The server also sends a 200 Switching to ASCII mode which also has the wrong SEQ number. From there it's 7 tries of TCP Retransmission and TCP DUP ACK while both sides are using 'their' SEQ numbers. (Shouldn't the unconfirmed message that the server sent be retransmitted? Meaning, shouldn't the server just sent the 227 entering passive mode message again? Or at least fix the SEQ number?) I got multiple questions here. For one, which side is behaving wrong here? One side has to fix it's SEQ number, but who? And how can a specific message (it's always the Entering passive mode message) always get lost? To make matters more strange this is happening only on one computer. Out of hundreds. And it's also only happening with one FTP server. (which I don't have control over). The server and the computer in question are connected via the internet. The logs were acquired via the client's router, so it's not a PC problem. Ok, I managed to filter the p
through the intertenet. The error I get is: An error occurred opening that folder in the FTP server. Make sure you have permission to access that folder.

Try this: Create a new user account and be certain that this user has permissions to the folders desired on the Sharespace--that is not automatic and be ftp error sure to check the box "create a private user share". Make sure the Sharespace has been assigned an IP addres by the router (assuming you are using one) then set the Sharespace to use that as a static address by unchecking DHCP client. Check the appropriate settings in the router to be sure that this static address is also set or reserved. If not, the Sharespace could get a new IP address at reboot, powe cycle or for ftp error 200 other reasons preventing access. Set port 21 in your router to be forwarded to the LAN side IP static address of the Sharespace assigned above. When the user account is created, make sure you can log in either on the LAN side or WAN side using the appropriate ip address. To eliminate possible FTP client program settings (although usually fairly simple to set up) you can use your browser to quickly check that you are able to access and see the directory of the private share, and the ther directorys or folders if permissions have been set, In the URL address remove everything and only enter the following: ftp://(user name)@(static lan address of the sharespace) hit enter and you should see the directory listings displayed from the sharespace to which you have enabled the user. Please post results of this setup. razvanpas 2010-11-15 14:02:50 UTC #3 Apperently, something has changed with latest firmware on wd world (1.02.04). Me too, I cant acces using default settings in Internet Explorer my FTP. The workaround, which is not great at all, is to uncheck "Use Passive FTP" in IE advanced settings. I m using IE8 and last fw for WD World. Chrome is not having trouble with that.
