There is no way an RFT update would be affecting uberftp's behavior. The only candidate advisory to try is globus_gridftp_server_control-0.21, which fixes bug 6066, an issue with long user and/or group names. The symptoms don't match up, though.

Does globus-url-copy work?  Try the GridFTP server troubleshooting:

One of my users reported the following problem:

Note to VDT team: we seem to be experinecing problems with a BeStMan
installation out of VDT 1.10.1d that points to problems in the
gridftp
libraries, see below.  Running vdt-verson reports the following
installed set:

You have installed a subset of VDT version 1.10.1d:
 Berkeley Storage Manager (BeStMan) 2.2.0.10
 CA Certificates v37 (includes IGTF 1.22 CAs)
 Fetch CRL 2.6.6
 Globus Toolkit, web-services, client 4.0.7
 Globus Toolkit, web-services, server 4.0.7
 GPT 3.2autotools2004-NMI-9.0
 GSI-Enabled OpenSSH 4.3
 Grid User Management System (GUMS) Client 1.2.16
 Java 5 SDK 1.5.0_14
 Logrotate 3.7
 MySQL 4.1.22
 MySQL Connector/J 5.0.6
 PRIMA Authorization Module 0.7.1
 PRIMA Authorization Module For GT4 Web Services 0.1.2

Alex: notes problems doing remote gridftp transfers, see below.   I
can log in to the machine directly and see the directories in
question
from a user account, but I see problems even using a simple gridftp
client like uberftp in accessing any directory:

uberftp> ls
Could not list ls: 500-Command failed. :
globus_gridftp_server_file.c:globus_l_gfs_file_stat:389:
500-System error in stat: No such file or directory
500-A system call failed: No such file or directory
500 End.

Looking around the web, I see that this message has been associated
with GT 4.0.7, e.g. see the following message from Stuart Martin
(truncated) to the gt-user list in early June:

This the message he was referring to:
Try install the 4.0.7 RFT update package
(globus_wsrf_rft_service_java-0.39 ) from 
http://www.globus.org/toolkit/advisories.html
Looks like that could be the problem.

I think I have this update. At least, Stu thinks the VDT patch has got it.
http://vdt.cs.wisc.edu/patches/1.10.1/
I think your RFT patch, 123__rft_problem.diff is the same as the
update package, globus_wsrf_rft_service_java-0.39
But John Bresnahan would be the person to say for sure.

Assuming you have the latest source, then it would be best to send
email to gridftp-user (or gt-user which seems to be the catch all) to
get all relevant eye's on this.

Are we missing something in our Globus build? Is this a new bug?

Thanks,
