Posted: 27 Jan 2010, 16:08 Post subject: AllWaySync support |
|
|
Hello
I'm trying to connect to a zFTP-server through a synchronization program called AllWaySync.
Or well, the problem isn't actually connecting, but uploading files. Folders can be created on the server, but no files will upload. And yes, the user got admin rights, and all that.
I can use the same account I'm using for upload and successfully upload/download files when using flashFXP as client.
I tried contacting AllWaySync, but their support is more or less dead.
I think the errors I'm getting are general FTP/API errors, but tbh. I don't know that much about this stuff.
I'm getting these errors when I'm trying to transfer files:
| Code: | I think the errors I'm getting are general FTP related errors, I'll post them here:
- API call error, Unspecified error(80004005), filename: ftp:/xxx.xxx.xxx, ftp::findfirstitem
- API call error, Unspecified error(80004005), filename: ftp://xxx.xxx.xxx/_backup/Backup200907131731_OnShutdown.MBK, ftp::CreateCollection
- API call error, 200 Type set to I. 504 Data port can only be used by the same IP address used by the control connection. , filename: Error while copying "D:\# FELLES\mamut\Data\Backup\m_Backup.Zip" to "ftp://xxx.xxx.xxx/_backup/m_Backup.Zip", UploadFileSafely::copyfile_failed1
|
For passive mode I'm getting these errors:
| Code: |
- API call error, 200 Type set to I. 227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,0,193,5,212). , filename: Error while copying "D:\# FELLES\mamut\Data\Backup\m_Backup.Zip" to "ftp://xxx.xxx.xxx/_backup/m_Backup.Zip", UploadFileSafely::copyfile_failed1
- API call error, 200 Type set to I. 227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,0,193,5,212). , filename:ftp://xxx.xxx.xxx/_backup/Upgrade5186, ftp::CreateCollection
|
Any clue?
edit:
Oh yeah, the server is accepting all other connections and is fully functional on a daily base. |

Sorry for the late reply.
You mean log from the zFTP log?
I finally got some response from AllWaySync, and they redirected me to this thread and told me the problem was my network configuration.
I fail to see how it can be my network as everyone else can connect without any problems. |

| Quote: | | 227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,0,193,5,212) | Are you trying to connect/transfer to a LAN-only server (or in LAN only)? The IP returned on PASV is a private one, it is not routable over the internet. zFTPServer has to know which is your external IP, because it needs to return it in the PASV reply.
The port used is 1492 (5*256+212). Is this port in the Passive port range you defined, opened and forwarded?
Ah, yes, please note that directory creation and deletion, renaming and deletion of files will work because they don't need a secondary connection. Essentially only actual transfers will require it (getting a listing is actually a transfer, too). _________________ Rank: Bughunter |

I'm connecting to an external server. I tried connecting to the same server through FlashFXP from the same location, and everything worked then.
And yes, the ports are working fine.
I have no idea why it is connecting with the LAN IP, but obviously the IP is right as the directories are being created.
I really don't know what more to say about it, is there any other information that I can provide? |

There seems to be a firewall tampering with your FTP... _________________ Rank: Bughunter |

Everything that monitors/shapes traffic acts like a firewall. In you case, there seems to be something exchanging your IPs. 192.168.0.193 is a LAN IP, there's no way it will work with either FTP client over the internet unless there's something silently inserting the external IP and vice versa. As you already experienced, that mechanism can fail.
Things that can act like a firewall:
-Personal firewalls (software firewalls)
-Routers (hardware firewalls)
.Antivirus scanners
-Internet security software
-Traffic shapers and monitors
-Internet service providers
-Proxies _________________ Rank: Bughunter |

I still don't get how my server can work perfectly fine for everyone through every other client...
I could create a user for you on my FTP and you could check for yourself if you want. That might help you resolving it. I tried to PM you, but it seems to be disabled.
For the firewalls, all I got it my router I guess I could try putting my server in DMZ and see if that'll change anything, but I doubt it.
edit: Tried DMZ, changed nothing. |

Could you try with a non-default listening port, like 2100? Malicious routers/firewalls usually work their "magic" (yucks!) only on port 21.
Blech, that spam in these forums sucks. _________________ Rank: Bughunter |
