Errors Errors and Errors!!

Hello,

I have been frustrated by getting some errors again and again and after trying different types of solutions this problem isn’t fixed, When I try to connect with FTP (Client) it gives an error, In the plain FTP (insecure) it keeps disconnecting from the server which always bugs my file transfer converting tons of files to be failed in upload.

When I use monsterFTP to upload the file, (Zip, Folder, File) it always gives an error if somehow the zip is uploaded it never gets extracted. Is there any possible solution to this problem?

IRC log:
( Command: MLSD
Error: GnuTLS error -110: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.
Status: Server did not properly shut down TLS connection
Error: Transfer connection interrupted: ECONNABORTED - Connection aborted )

@Admin

That sounds like the FTP inactivity timeout kicking in. However, that should not interrupt transfers already queued or in progress. FileZilla is a popular, free FTP client which isn’t bothered so much by the timeouts.

Which FTP client are you using? Can you use it to queue many files to be uploaded at once? And will the uploads already queued break when the main connection is kicked out?

I use FileZilla and when I upload any file (multiple files) it gets a timeout (connection lost from the server) after uploading 2-3 files, and then my other 2-3 files get failed to upload.

So did you queue 4-6 files at once or did you upload a few files, let the connection time out, then try to upload more files?

In case of the former, FileZilla should keep the connections open to transfer the files. And since files are being transferred, the inactivity timers don’t kick in. You should be able to transfers thousands of files in one go without any problem as long as you connect and immediately queue them for upload.

If you upload a few files and then let the connection timeout, you first need to disconnect and reconnect before you can do anything else. FileZilla isn’t smart enough to figure out the timeout itself, so you need to reconnect manually. But after reconnecting, you should be able to transfer many files again without any problems.

Most FTP servers have connection time limits and FileZilla doesn’t deal with them very well. But that’s the FTP servers behaving as intentional.

(also, you don’t need to hide the FTP server address - it’s the same for everyone and every account and anyone could figure it out since you also posted the FTP hostname)

same problem with me… i m using dreamweaver… it can create connection successfully but when i upload my site after few folders it says connection time out…

I see, but the problem is still not fixed, anyways, I somehow managed to upload all the files using the online File manager.

Thanks, @Admin
