Hello Dear List Members, I am new to the list, so, as LFTP really rocks, I would like to thank all contributors to such a great SW.
I am a Linux enthusiast. I would like to solve following issue: - I want to synchronize (mirror) local directory tree (on Linux Debian, on LAN behind ADLS router) to a remote FTP server. synchronisation script is: upload.lftp =========================== <code> open -u [email protected],mypassword -p 21 ftp.myserver.com mirror --reverse --delete --verbose=3 /home/user/01_DATA /01_DATA exit </code> * * * But it fails.* * * so I used debug mode (debug -d) : ======================== <code> lftp -d -f upload.lftp </code> And got this log: ========= <--- 230-User [email protected] has group access to: myserver <--- 230 OK. Current restricted directory is / ---> PWD <--- 257 "/" is your current location ---> PBSZ 0 <--- 200 PBSZ=0 ---> MKD /01_DATA <--- 550 Can't create directory: File exists ---> CWD /01_DATA <--- 250 OK. Current directory is /01_DATA ---> PROT P <--- 200 Data protection level set to "private" ---> PASV <--- 227 Entering Passive Mode (xxx.yyy.zzz.79,253,173) ---- Connecting data socket to (xxx.yyy.zzz.79) port 64941 **** Socket error (No route to host) - reconnecting ---> LIST ---> ABOR ---- Closing aborted data socket ---- Closing control socket Getting directory contents (0) [Delaying before reconnect: 19] Symptoms: ========= - lftp process enters a counting loop, connects again, fails again, an so on. On remote site, I can see many FTP processes piling up for each retry of LFTP - There is no such issue with other programs such as FilleZilla, or NCFTPBATCH while copying directory trees tu the FTP server. Diagnosis: ? ====== This is not: 1) an initial connection issue 2) a login issue 3) an access rights issue For instance, LFTP created remote directory /01_DATA in a previous session. It may be: ? - a local ADSL router issue (included firewall rules? what else ?) Thanks in advance for ideas and advice, -- Peko
