I try to log on my raq 4 by ftp but i get the message:

I use ws-ftp to log on

connecting to www.mywebsite.com:21
Connected to www.mywebsite.com.133 port 21
! Receive error: Blocking call cancelled

! Connection failed www.mywebsite.com



And i cant go in, by the root pass and with a normal login.

What can i do to solve this problem?

Thanx in advance.

Is FTP enabled in the control panel? Are you using a software or hardware firewall anywhere in your IP path?

try useing address without the www. just the domain.com for the address or try useing the IP number for the address assigned to the domain. Make sure your useing correct password.

Try also to set your ws ftp program to passive mode.

Thanx all for your replies, what i do is test it with a other ftp program , and the it worked very well.

Essentially it means you need to switch from passive mode to standard ftp, or vice versa depending on what your current settings are. The official description of the problem can be found here: http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/WS-20001020-DM01.htm

I do tried the solutions everybody bring, but know i get this error what can i do? (i use ws-ftp)

! Failed "createsocket": - Blocking operation in progress
! Connection failed www.mywebsite.com

And does somebody know what to do with this error?


Thanks in advance,

Daniel

Are you trying to ftp in as root? I don't think the server allows that -- root is listed in /etc/ftpusers. Since FTP transmits passwords in clear text, FTPing as root (or admin) is a BAD idea!!

If you're trying to connect via telnet as root, that's another BAD idea (telnet transmits cleartext), and also prohibited by the server. You must log in as admin, then do 'su -' to become root.

There are free SSH packages for all Cobalts at http://www.pkgmaster.com/ -- and free SSH clients like PuTTY. Please use them instead of telnet!!

No that is not the problem i log in as a user. and i also use ssh.

Another ideas?

connecting to myownip:21 (i dont know why i see here my own ip?)
! Connection failed www.mydomainname.com - connection refused
! Connection failed www.mydomainname.com

this is another error from a another virtual site.

Does anybody have a idea?

I searched for this error in the Ipswitch database

http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/WS-20000421-DM01.htm

! Failed "createsocket": - error 10106
! Connection failed ip.add.re.ss

Answer/Solution: This is a network error:

10106 WSAEPROVIDERFAILEDINIT
The requested service provider could not be loaded or initialized.

Basically this means that one of the network drivers was not able to be initialized by the process. Most likely the process created by his API call lacks sufficient permissions to load a required DLL or to call a required function, or, the actual WIN32API call is specified incorrectly in VB.

There may be permission settings that prevent certain process types from accessing a network function for security. As an alternative, one could shell out to execute the function. This way the process created will have similar
permissions as your program.


Do i read it good?, the problem is my ftp software on my pc?

I checked the connection to my raq and i get good replies. I test my ws ftp with a another server an there he will connect very good.

I tested it also with a another user account and it also didn't work.

Any ideas?
