STOR Command not working with destination FTP about fluentftp

[ggiaquin16]

Any updates or feedback? I can't seem to get the upload to work and I have tried many variations of how to upload through FluentFTP all ending with the same issue.

[BobEntwhistle]

The way I tracked down our problems was by using FileZilla to upload a file and examining the conversation between the client and the FTP server.

I used Wireshark to examine the conversation between FluentFTP and the server.

If you can upload both of those logs, it would be a start to figuring out what the problem is.

[ggiaquin16]

For Wireshark, I haven't used it before, what do I put in for the capture filter? the host address?

[BobEntwhistle]

I think I put "http | ftp" (no quotes). You might just need "ftp".

[ggiaquin16]

Ok thanks :) I will need to play around with these tools. I probably won't have the logs ready until tomorrow! My first time using either so apologize for any delay or issues with the tools.

ok, here is a better log with more similar commands to what i am doing in fluent.

[BobEntwhistle]

OK, I'm no expert, but it looks like the server is refusing the connection.

Are you able to upload successfully with FileZilla? If not, you'll need to address that with your network administrator.

[robinrodricks]

Both logs that you sent are of the failure. Can you send a successful transfer log (via Filezilla + Wireshark) so we can compare and see what Filezilla is doing right?

[ggiaquin16]

Well that is the issue and zoltan you are probably right. I just find it odd though that I am able to log in and connect to the server, but it does not do a file upload. The only way for me to get a successful file load is if I manually do the commands through cmd prompt and do the transfer with PUT. I cannot successfully upload through filezilla or my application.

[ggiaquin16]

Also, not sure if this helps but maybe this may be part of the issue? This was part of the documentation for the project:

2. Please verify that your FTPS software can process Port Command Format 2, or ignore the IP address that is provided in Port Command Format 1.

[BobEntwhistle]

OK, can you get us a Wireshark log of the conversation with the FTP server when you execute a PUT command in your cmd prompt FTP client? If you could, send the entire conversation from login to successful upload. Remove any sensitive information (e.g. username/password).
Note that PUT is the user-friendly command, it will likely send a STOR to the server.

[ggiaquin16]

Yes :) STOR is part of the command sequence in a PUT :) I did a whole bunch of research on that haha I am still trying to understand wireshark. When you say log what do you mean exactly? are you talking about the pcap?

[ggiaquin16]

[BobEntwhistle]

I see your screenshot. Just for reference... :-)

Here's the sequence I follow:

1. Start Wireshark
2. Double click Ethernet on the opening page. This will start the capture
3. Add a Display Filter "ftp || ftp-data" (no quotes)
4. Do the FTP upload
5. Capture->Stop
6. Edit->Mark All Displayed
7. File->Export Packet Dissections ->As Plain Text-
   Select

• Marked Packets
• Packet summary line
  Unselect
• Packet details

8. Edit the file to remove any sensitive data

[ggiaquin16]

This looks like it could be an authentication issue. One thing I noticed in my cmd Prompt was that there was no TLS acknowledgement. I went to go do cmd prompt again submitting auth TLS and shortly after it says connection closed by remote host.

[BobEntwhistle]

There's also no mention of passive mode.

[ggiaquin16]

When I tried to do it passive, in both filezilla and my application, it gave me the error you saw above about connection refused by host.

[BobEntwhistle]

Yes, try FileZilla in Active transfer mode and turn off any encryption.

Can you post the Wireshark log for this interaction?

[ggiaquin16]

NCDMVWireSharkFileZilla.txt

[BobEntwhistle]

And that's all encrypted. Ha!

I did notice this in your cmd prompt log:

Request: site recfm=fb lrecl=380 blksize=27740

This looks like an IBM specific command. Which FTP program are you using at the command prompt?

[ggiaquin16]

lol Yea, i figured as much but wasn't sure what it was exactly >< I just type in ftp into command prompt to open it up. Also, that site command is also specifically requested by them.

[BobEntwhistle]

Have you tried setting the server type to "MVS, OS/390, z/OS" in FileZilla?

[ggiaquin16]

It was on auto detect but I will explicitly have it as MVS and see if that changes anything. Yea no change. Same thing.

[ggiaquin16]

This is very perplexing to me because if this was a firewall issue.... wouldn't it not work in cmd prompt as well?

[BobEntwhistle]

OK, let's try a different tack. In FileZilla, go to Edit->Settings->Debug and set the debug level to Verbose.

Try the upload again and post the FileZilla log here.

[ggiaquin16]

Sorry was at a work lunch posting it now :)

This looks like an IBM specific command.
that site command is also specifically requested by them.

I missed this detail earlier. After connecting in FileZilla, go to Server->Enter custom command

[BobEntwhistle]

Can you post the cmd prompt commands that you use to successfully transfer the file? Also are you specifying a remote path like this? https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?t=41382

[ggiaquin16]

Yes I am doing it with the single quote to enforce literal string and with the dots as specified.
For cmd Prompt, I do the following:
ftp
open sccftp.its.state.nc.us
prompted for username
prompted for password
quote site recfm=fb lrecl=380 blksize=27740
put C:\Users\GXG1ISG\Desktop\VisualStudioRepository\NorthCarolinaDMVNEW\NCDMV\bin\Debug\Files\OutBound\DOTT.MVI.PRODBS.CLTR.INBCD.R28 'DOTT.MVI.PRODBS.CLTR.INBCD.R28'
after it sends I type bye.

[ggiaquin16]

If i try to add quote auth tls it gives me an error saying remote path closed by host.

[BobEntwhistle]

Try setting the remote directory in FileZilla to something with single quotes, and see if that causes it to send the STOR with quotes also.

[ggiaquin16]

no such luck however I have tried adding the quotes in the application and I still got a time out. Tried setting the remote directory to the file name which is their internal directory and it didn't like that. Changed it to the working directory i know works and I got a stor command without quotes still.

ok update.... IS there a way to do this?
"The address returned to you is not reachable by you. If there is a parameter that says to ignore this address and continue with the original, you should select that." in filezilla or fluentftp?

[BobEntwhistle]

Which address is that?

[ggiaquin16]

He said that to me after seeing:

Command: PASV

Trace: CFtpControlSocket::OnReceive()

Response: 227 Entering Passive Mode (207,192,33,30,195,109)

Trace: CFtpControlSocket::TransferParseResponse()

Trace: CFtpControlSocket::SendNextCommand()

Trace: CFtpControlSocket::TransferSend()

Trace: Destination IP of data connection does not match peer IP of control connection. Not binding source address of data connection.

Command: STOR DOTT.MVI.PRODBS.CLTR.INBCD.R28

Error: The data connection could not be established: ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server

Trace: CTransferSocket::TransferEnd(3)

Trace: CFtpControlSocket::TransferEnd()

Your cmd prompt FTP session isn't using passive mode.

[ggiaquin16]

No but the server admin I am working with told me to do passive mode. "You are using active mode and your port command specifies a different IP than what is in the log here for your ID.

Command: PORT 172,31,130,109,207,169

This means this address is not reachable by me. This command also specifies port (256 x 207) + 169, which might not be open on your firewall.

If you can specifiy extended passive mode, and if your firewall is open for port range 50000 – 50040 this might go better."

[BobEntwhistle]

Weird, the server was perfectly happy with this command from your FTP client: "Request: PORT 172,31,130,109,223,120"

Are you going through a proxy to get to this FTP site? You can determine this thusly: http://babel.jorgebg.com/configure-proxy-windows-7

[ggiaquin16]

Nope no proxy set up based on the link you showed me. ><

  Please verify that your FTPS software can process Port Command Format 2, or ignore the IP address that is provided in Port Command Format 1.

This was a part of the instructions to the project. I tried googling this back then too and did so again a little tonight and still found nothing talking about port command formats. Not sure what this means but I believe this has to do with what he is referring to in terms of ignoring the IP address.

[ggiaquin16]

Port command format 2 (!!!50029) No IP address is specified, which means to use the ‘original’ IP address, and the port number is specified explicitly. Format 2 is for ‘exteended passive mode’

Envoked EPSV mode for data connection type to get the port command format 2 as is expected by the server. This then leaves me with more than likely the issue being a firewall issue. Thank you Zoltan for helping me! I know you didn't have to as it was fairly apparent early that the issue was not with the library but a lack of understanding on my end. I learned quite a bit on how to trouble shoot networking issues thanks to this as it was something I never had to deal with previously.

[BobEntwhistle]

You can specify your external IP address like this: https://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Network_Configuration#Active_mode

Are you done with this issue? Can I close it?

[ggiaquin16]

It seems that this issue is not related to the library so you can go ahead and close it. I am not done with it but as far as your end goes, I don't think there is anything more you guys can do on your end. Thanks guys for the help in trying to solve this :)

Thanks!
