Cumulus v3.0.0 (3041) FTP port setting not used

Topics about the Beta trials up to Build 3043, the last build by Cumulus's founder Steve Loft. It was by this time way out of Beta but Steve wanted to keep it that way until he made a decision on his and Cumulus's future.

Cumulus v3.0.0 (3041) FTP port setting not used

Post by zentoid »

Hi.

I have run into an interesting issue with the FTP port setting. I have updated the podr in the web interface, then restarted mx. Just to check i shut down mx and edited the ini manually to specify the server ftp port. Both times mx tries to connect on port 21 and ignores the port setting in the ini.

From the Cumulus.ini file

Code: Select all

Port=936
However when checking the server no files are uploaded. Further investigations showed the following from the MXDiag file

Code: Select all

2016-09-08 20:26:44.744 Error connecting ftp - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21
Is this a known issue or is there a work around.

MX is running on win 10 latest fast track release.

Thanks

I've forgotten to set the port number in the ftp component - I'll fix it in the next build.
