Hello!
I have tried to install ioFTPD v7.7.2 under Windows 2003 SP2 x64. When I start ioFTPD-Start.exe the server and the gui start up, but for some reason the default ioFTPD won't login. The console contains the following error: "wSock_Error() -> Connection is forcefully rejected (10061)". If I double click on ioFTPD under Sitename it will login fine. This is with the default out of the zip configs. Also if I right click on the G icon on the tray and select any option an error message pops up (Run-time error '76': Path not found) and the server crashes. Any ideas what could be wrong?
Any help is appreciated!

Let's quit trolling...
How about ioGui2?

Since the server is working fine, the issue is a timing problem during startup. Basically ioGUI is trying to connect before the server is willing to accept new connections. There's a bunch of reasons for that, but the simplest fix is just to delay ioGUI starting... What you want to do is pass an argument to ioFTPD-Start.exe which is the delay before starting ioGUI. Just create a new windows shortcut to ioFTPD-Start.exe and then click right click on the shortcut and select properties. Change the target to look like "C:\ioFTPD\ioFTPD-Start.exe 40" which means wait 40 seconds... Adjust the delay as needed, heck even 120 for 2 minutes isn't a big deal. Just remember to start the server from the new shortcut!

Thanks for your reply Yil.
An other problem is that in ioGUI I have some dir listing error. Some of the directories have a weird dates. The m/d/y values are correct, but there's no time and ioGUI puts the year in front of the dir name, while under date there's only m/d left. If I login to the ftp with a client then all those dirs have a 00:00:00 time. Under windows they all have different and valid creation times, Serv-U ftp server also displays all the correct dates.
