Can't transfer files

[usa]

Hi.

My first time using the program. I'm changing hosts and when I connected to both sites I all files and folders in my www dir.

FXP managed to create the folders but failed on every file. I then tried transferring just a file, still failed.

Here's part of the log:

257 "/var/www/html" is current directory.
List (cached)
List Complete.
TYPE A
200 Type set to A.
PASV
227 Entering Passive Mode (64,33,xxx,xxx,14,229).
PORT 64,xx,xx,xx,14,229
500 Illegal PORT command.
Site to Site Transfer Failed! (Attempting alternative method)
PASV
227 Entering Passive Mode (207,xx,xx,xx,131,186).
PORT 207,44,196,13,131,186
500 Illegal PORT command.

What am I doing wrong?

neither of those 2 sites support fxp. it's impossible to transfer files between them.

Could you explain in more detail. What does a site need to support FXP?

[MxxCon]

one site MUST support PASV connection and another MUST support PORT connection.
it doesn't matter which site support which type of connection, as long as one is PASV and other is PORT.
from your status log you it looks like flashfxp sent PASV command to 1st site and PORT command to 2nd site but got reply of
500 Illegal PORT command
then it reversed the commands and sent PASV to 2nd site and PORT to 1st one, but still got reply of
500 Illegal PORT command

different ftpd have different ways of enabling fxp transfer.
site admin should consult ftpd documentation to see how to enable site to site transfers.

I am having the same problem as usa. I am able to upload/download directly to the ftp I have set up at home from school with no problems. But when i try to do a site to site I have the same issues. When I transfer files it writes the folder and a 0 byte file, but won't transfer the actual files.


The following is a sample of when I tried to transfer files from an established ftp to my own site.......

257 "/cntz" is current directory.

I am using Flash FXP 2.0 (906). I am attempting to send files to a serv-u ftp site. aside from reading the docs, (which haven't been entirely helpful) is there any advice/suggestion you can give me that will help me with site-site??
thank you

and usa, if you were successful, I'd appreciate your input.

no, your problem is completely different.
enable Alternative FXP so that site w/ 12,*,*,* is being sent PASV command during transfer and site with 24,*,*,* being sent PORT command.

Unfortunately I can't find where to "enable alternative fxp".
Can you please explain
Thank you
Chris
