With the help of Sai I was able to locate a custom change I had inserted within the ftpd.bat file to always use my custom xml file rather than the default configuration.
The newer version 1.06 did not of course have this custom change. Once I added the change, version 1.06 of the Apache FTP started with no problems and worked as expected. Thanks for your help, Sai.

Please post back to the forum with the issue you had and indicating it is all fixed, so other won't spend time looking at your question. Thanks.

When I made the same change to the 1.06 batch file everything is now working Thanks for the help.

Can you send the command you used to start both previous version and new version. Looks like you are not overriding the config file the server should use, but we will know once you look at your command.

Attached are the logs (both client and server) for a test connection to each version. Take a look at the server log for 1.06 - it does not state that it is using my ftpd.xml file - which is explicitly stated by version 1.04 I'm sending this directly to you instead of to the list because the attached files identify my server and my login id and I'd rather not broadcast this info to the list. Thanks for your help.

Could you try running the new install in debug mode and post the logs? Also helps to see all the information that is available from CuteFTP. Thanks.
