Hello everyone,

I have a problem with a CFFTP code. It runs smooth from one server, but fails
from another (where I have to develop it further into FTPS).

The error message I get is:

coldfusion.oroinc.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException: FTP response 421
received. Server closed connection..

I did look up the 421 error code for FTP. It doesn't really say that much.

This is the actual tag where it get stuck:

<cfftp action="OPEN" username="xxx" server="xxx" port="21" password="xxx"
connection="ftp">

I tried it with a passive connection (I read that somewhere in the connection
with the 421 code) but that doesn't change anything.

Does anybody around here have an clue what the problem might be?

Thanks in advance.
Adrian

have you check privileges on the dir you are try to get to ... ?

421 Operator forced logout
Explanation A privileged user in DDNMVSOP mode (the operator control mode
of OPEN-Link for IBM/MVS) cancels the FTP session.

Hei elDonrico,

Thanks for the trouble. Yeah, that was it. The test servers IP didn't have the
necessary privileges on the ftp server. I reckon, I could have thought of that
before! Sorry about that. My head is so consumed by new stuff at the moment,
that I can't think of the 'simple/logic' other issues.

Adrian
