Description Michael Kearey 2008-09-11 23:03:49 UTC
Description of problem:
vsftpd 2.0.7 provides necessary fix for ECONABORTED
issue with filezilla and other clients.  Please update vsftpd package to 2.0.7.
 Here is a line from the changelog: - Shutdown the SSL data connections
properly. This prevents clients such as recent FileZilla from complaining.
Reported by various people.

Current build of vsftpd with ssl connections is unusable with filezilla.



Additional info: Here is a description of the issue from the vsftpd developer:

Jiri,

I have applied the patch at RHEL5 BZ 459607 to RHEL4's vsftpd-2.0.1-5.EL4.7.src.rpm package. It applies cleanly.

I will perform a test using filezilla and let you know result.

Hi David... 

From customer: 

<snip>

It was petty simple and straight forward. We did this on RHEL4 Update 5 64
bit. The standard vsftpd-2.0.1-5.EL4.5.x86_64.rpm install threw the error
we have previously communicated while trying to log/use ftps with
filezilla 3.1.3 (normal ftp works fine). We upgraded the vsftpd version to
the one provided by RedHat and ran the same test/attempt. We were able to
log in and functionally use the same filezilla client. Standard ftp
continued to work as well.
