A recent release of the FileZilla FTP client triggered this issue. ProFTPd needs to handle SSL shutdown in data connections somewhat differently. See: http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3094 http://marc.info/?t=121736602800002&r=1&w=2 There is a patch available for ProFTPd 1.3.1 and I have tested it briefly and it appears to address the issue. My SRPM is available here: http://rayvd.fedorapeople.org/proftpd/proftpd-1.3.1-4.1.src.rpm For those who need a quick solution. I am hoping ProFTPd will release this shortly "officially", but if not perhaps this patch could be considered for inclusion in 1.3.1-5 (I guess 1.3.1-4 still has never been released).
Hi Matthias. I encountered another issue with mod_tls that caused the daemon to crash in certain situations when SIGHUP's were sent. This was causing the server to die whenever logrotate ran (definitely not a good thing). ProFTPD came up with a patch for me, and my updated version is here: http://rayvd.fedorapeople.org/proftpd/proftpd-1.3.1-4.3.src.rpm This includes both the patch for the SSL shutdown issue mentioned above as well as the fix for the SIGHUP issue. The SIGHUP issue upstream bz is: http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3098 Do you have time to take a look at this and perhaps do a release? If not, let me know -- I'd be happy to co-maintain this package. Thanks.
Any progress on new rpms? My clients are still complaining about filezilla not working with my servers.
I've contacted Matthias to see if he'd like to do a co-maintain on this package. You can use my SRPM above if you like in the interim.
I've tested and included all 3 patches in the updated proftpd packages which should be pushed to all current branches shortly. Note that I've put 1.3.2rc3 on devel, which normally already includes these fixes.
