Stuck during Connection

Hello!

I'm using the current version of FlashFXP and my problem is that it stucks during the Connection to a Serv-U FTP v. 7.3

It stucks on the CLNT Line.. what does that mean? The password includes a DOT. The "xxx" is only made by me to hide the name of the account.

I hope somebody knows the issue - help appreciated. Connecting with other programs runs without any problems.

From the status log it would appear that FlashFXP is waiting for a server reply to the CLNT command. Sending this command is non-trivial and the server just needs to return OK.

Does the connection hang on the same command every time?

My experience with Serv-U 7.x releases were that it was quite buggy, I don't know if the same is true for the newer 8.x releases, this might be a bug related to that specific version of Serv-U.

Yes everytime and after 120 sec delay the connection fails/ try to reconnect.
Is it possible to jump over the client-request?

I don't think that the hoster is going to update his software, damn him.

You can check the option "Site does not support FEAT command" in the site manager / options tab and it should bypass that command. This is a roundabout way of bypassing the command but I'm afraid its the only way.

Thank you very much for the fast reply. I don't know why but this problem happen to me when the hoster changed something on his servers.

Now it works for me again. I have only one question - what does that mean for me "doesn't support FEAT command"? Do I have any restrictions when it is marked?

Anyway it's great that I can set this mark for this account separately.

By disabling FEAT you turn off the extended ftp features that are supported by the server.

Oh, thats good to know! Thanks anyways, I'm just using the basic functions of the server (upload/download files) so it seems to work for me fine.

I will close this thread because my problem is solved.

greetings
