Hello Jerry, We have several instances of FTPServer in Linux and Win Server 2003 and never suffered such a problem (they have been running for months now). Can you provide us with the following information?
1) Apache FTPServer, Apache MINA and JRE/JDK versions. 2) Are you using any custom code (e.g., Ftplets, commands, filesystem ) ? I cannot recall any similiar issue so my initial thought was that your problem is due to 2) - but I haven't been able to follow the mailing list lately so I might be utterly wrong. 2012/12/7 Jerry M <techst...@malcolms.com> > I've been using the FTPServer (on Win Server 2008) since around June of > this year.
