Can't connect to my web site server - "FTP Server sent unexpected response". (14 posts)

    Can't get into my site on MacHighway. This is the script that Fetch records. I suspect it may be MacHighway's problem, but I wanted someone to look at this and tell me what's going on? If there is more information, it's beyond me.

    Note I substituted XXXXX for my user name in the script.

    Fetch could not get the file list because the FTP server sent an unexpected response. (Check the Fetch Transcript window for more information.)

    Hi,

    Were you able to get into this site before? Has anything changed with your Internet configuration since then?

    Thanks,

    Thanks for getting back so quickly.

    Yes I have uploaded other files within the last month. Normally Fetch gets the list of files on the server in a matter of seconds & then I proceed from there. I maintain a small web site at this iSP and do occasional upgrades. Nothing fancy. Just text files for html and a few jegs or gifs.

    All I can figure is the failure is in the message that it can't open one IP address and will only open another?

    As far as I know nothing has changed on my setup other than normal upgrades from Apple.

    I have an inquiry in to the support group at MacHighway. I have not heard back from them yet.

    It looks like a problem on their end. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Or my end. They were able to log into my pages using fetch w.o. a problem.

    I downloaded Cyberduck and can connect with it.

    I suspect something is corrupted in Fetch on my computer? I think I need to do a reinstall of Fetch and see if it works after that. I found my registration information, so I assume i can simply uninstall and download a fresh copy.

    Hi,

    I would be interested in seeing the transcript from Cyberduck. Also, what version of Fetch do you have?

    Thanks,

    I have Fetch 5.7.3

    I uninstalled and downloaded a new copy & got the same issue--- again.

    I tried Cyberduck and managed to get the file list, but went no further. So I'm at a loss.

    How do you get a Cyberduck script? I see no obvious choice

    In Cyberduck, choose "Toggle Log Drawer" from the View menu, and then click the Refresh button. Does anything appear?

    Thanks,

    Thanks for your continued interest.

    I downloaded Transmit and tried it..... no dice.

    FYI I remembered I have some ftp space at Frontier. I used Fetch to upload a file & to later look for the file there, it worked fine.

    Here's the Cyberduck script contacting my files at Machighway.: I was able to get a file list but have not been able to load a file, however. It seems to stall when it is trying to access the file on my computer. The script is from a simple log on.

    Thanks for sending that. Apparently Cyberduck is getting the file list without setting up a data connection, so it isn't initially running into the problem that Fetch and Transmit are seeing. But when you try to transfer a file, Cyberduck hits that same obstacle.

    The next thing I would try is the following:

    1) Choose "Utilities" from the Go menu in the Finder
    2) Open Terminal
    3) Type the following:

    defaults write com.fetchsoftworks.Fetch PasvUseServerIP -bool true

    and then hit Return
    4) Try to connect to the MacHighway site with Fetch. If it doesn't work, please send me the transcript.

    [An explanation: The first transcript you sent had this exchange:

    PASV
    227 Entering Passive Mode (192,163,222,66,163,84)

    Fetch asked the server "give me an IP address to connect to". The server responded with an IP address starting with 192, a private IP address that isn't valid on the Internet in general (which is probably why Fetch's connection attempt failed). That looks to me like an issue with the configuration of the MacHighway server. The Terminal command above tells Fetch to ignore that private address, and instead connect to the server's public IP address. It may not work, but I think it's worth a try.]

    Thanks,

    Working the 4th! Good for you.

    For your information, I installed Fetch on my laptop which is running OS 10.8.4. Same problem. I was hopeful as Apple had issued a system update for the other computer.

    I tried your advice without success. Here is the terminal script followed by the Fetch script. I suggests unchecking the passive mode box, which I tries several iterations ago. It is currently checked.

    I assume the terminal command does not need to be removed. I entered it while Fetch was open, but not trying to connect.

    Fetch could not get the file list because there was a timeout trying to establish a passive mode data connection. (A server firewall might be blocking passive mode (PASV) transfers. Ask the server administrator for help, or try unchecking the “Use passive mode transfers (PASV)” box in the General pane of the Preferences.)

    Fetch could not get the file list because there was a timeout trying to establish a passive mode data connection. (A server firewall might be blocking passive mode (PASV) transfers. Ask the server administrator for help, or try unchecking the “Use passive mode transfers (PASV)” box in the General pane of the Preferences.)

    Hi,

    I'm sorry that the Terminal command didn't do the trick. I hope MacHighway can figure out what's going on on their end.

    Thanks,

    Thanks Jim.

    The McHy support person is finally admitting that it must be a configuration issue in their server and is kicking the problem up to the system admin level. (I think it was your first opinion!)

    I appreciate your support. I don't think they were looking at the script carefully until recently.
