Since I'm no member of the development team and there're several posts stating that I'm deploying FtpServer on Glassfish v2u2 & v2u1 (and have tested it on Apache Tomcat too) my word should be enough , I think. I have 4 copies of FtpServer running on 4 different machines and they are all started from a ContextListener. As I said, I tested my example both on Tomcat and Glassfish but I remarked that some versions of Glassfish Might fail to deploy the server correctly due to what it seems like a glassfish bug.
So, did you try what I say? You just deploy to tomcat my example app with the xml config from my previous email regarding this topic. If it is working you'll already know that ftpserver is working correctly. Otherwise, post the actual xml config you used plus the log files (I think that my example just logged to console - so your application server log file ) that should indicate any problem that might exist. We're willing to help but you don't seem to pay much attention to our feedback. So, please, follow these steps so we can reach to a conclusion. If you (and I mean ' Brad and Phlogiston') just send complaints with no input on what your problem is, it is impossible you can make it work. I was tempted to send an example app which just called new FtpServer() start() so there was no need to tweak the xml file but I thought that using an XML file would be more useful. My fault probably. In your XML config, try first with absolute paths to your users.properties file or the keystore. But as I said, I suggest that you try first with no UserManager configured nor SSL. I sent you the body of the xml file so just substitute your current <server></server> with that one I provided.
