Error retrieving directory listing...

#1 Post by mjl1297 » 2021-06-07 01:39

When I run the ftptest.net check I get the following--

Status: Resolving address of 74.141.147.184

Status: Connecting to 74.141.147.184

Warning: The entered address does not resolve to an IPv6 address.

Status: Connected, waiting for welcome message...

--and I haven't a clue what to do. I've read a number of other posts but what they suggested hasn't worked. Does anyone see anything in that log that might indicate the problem?

Any help appreciated.

Actually from reading several threads here and in a number of other forums about this VERY common error in FileZilla and finding no ready or wholly recommended solution, I think I will just look for another option.

While we don't pamper nor spoon-feed anyone with ready solutions, there is a guide in our Wiki that almost exclusively deals with the obstacles to overcome in a NAT environment: Network Configuration.

Nothing is universally free, ever. You either need to invest time and know-how of your own into a free solution, in order to get it working. Or, you prefer the shortcut and opt for a paid solution, investing your money so that others will do the work for you. Nobody will judge you, just choose the way you want it.
