Public bug reported: I have found a circumstance where GnomeVFS (Nautilus) cannot connect to a FTP site that Windows Explorer has no trouble connecting to. I made a short transcript of the session which pretty clearly illustrates the problem.
I am navigating to ftp://ftp.foo.com/DirectoryName/ T 12.186.62.135:21 -> 192.168.10.95:53413 [AP] 220 foo.bar.foo.com X2 WS_FTP Server 5.0.5 (3004367538).. ## T 192.168.10.95:53413 -> 12.186.62.135:21 [AP] USER CENSORED.. ## T 12.186.62.135:21 -> 192.168.10.95:53413 [AP] 331 Password required.. # T 192.168.10.95:53413 -> 12.186.62.135:21 [AP] PASS SEKRETPASSWORD.. # T 12.186.62.135:21 -> 192.168.10.95:53413 [AP] 230 user logged in.. # T 192.168.10.95:53413 -> 12.186.62.135:21 [AP] TYPE I.. # T 12.186.62.135:21 -> 192.168.10.95:53413 [AP] 200 Type set to IMAGE... # T 192.168.10.95:53413 -> 12.186.62.135:21 [AP] CWD /.. # T 12.186.62.135:21 -> 192.168.10.95:53413 [AP] 550 /: folder not found.. And then Nautilus errors. Basically, it is trying to CWD to / and failing, even though I am navigating to /DirectoryName. I'm sure that if it had succeeded at navigating to / it would have then proceeded to navigate to the proper place. Explorer does not try to CWD / first. So, it should probably not do this. I can't think of a very good reason why it would need to. ** Affects: gnome-vfs2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- unable to connect to specific FTP site https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148992 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
