Filezilla FTP Server Fails to Retrieve Directory Listing
I'm running Filezilla Server 0.9.45 beta to manage my server remotely.
After setting it up, I tested connecting to it using the IP 127.0.0.1
, and it worked successfully. However, to connect to the server remotely, I port forwarded to port 21, and tried to connect using my computer's IP.
Status: Connecting to [My IP]:21...
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...

Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing
This continues to work locally, but not when connecting remotely... How can I fix this?
Solution 1:
I just changed the encryption from "Use explicit FTP over TLS if available" to "Only use plain FTP" (insecure) at site manager and it works!
Solution 2:
File > Site Manager > Select your site > Transfer Settings > Active
Works for me.
