Hi,
I've upgraded Filezilla Server from 0.9.6 to the latest version and FTPS is no longer working through the firewall. What changes were made which would cause this?
It works fine on the local network (from another PC), but no longer works from a public IP, however this was working just fine before the upgrade (as all necessary ports were open etc.) I've tried both active and passive and nothing appears to work except normal FTP (non-secure). I'm testing externally using the latest Filezilla Client and it logs in ok, but then gets stuck at "Retrieving Directory Listing..." and eventually times out.
I understand this is a firewall issue, but not sure why the upgrade would suddenly break things unless something else is going on - I've put in the passive ports and public DNS/IP in the config (as this was lost during the upgrade), but this hasn't helped.
Thanks

Firewall rules are application-specific. FileZilla Server 1.x is a completely new application, so, you need to remove and re-do the firewall rules for the new executable.

I did this already in Windows as I can access it from another PC on the same network just fine.
Is there anything else it could be?

Rolling back to the old 0.9.6 version (with aboslutely no changes to the external firewall) and it's now working again, so something must have changed in the way that passive FTPS transfers work from old to the new version, so whilst it appears the firewall is a problem, something must have changed.
Given that delete permissions have also been rolled into write permissions and logging settings are still very basic compared to before (another reason for rolling back), it looks like I'll need to find another product which is really disappointing.
All I can say is right now, this product has taken 1 step forward, but 2 steps back which is a real shame and I guess the devs just don't care enough to listen to the people actually using it.

I fully approve!!!
The update is terrible!
FTPS does not work, most likely due to the fact that the server does not give the correct addresses for the data connection. Functionality has gone bad. Many clients stopped working correctly. Need to look for another product. Very sad.

You need to tell FileZilla Server your public address if you want to use passive mode behind a NAT router.
Re: Upgrade from 0.9.6 broken FTPS connections
I understand that, but as explained already, this has already been done and if I hadn't, then it wouldn't be working on the old version either, but it does.
Something in the new version broke for FTPS connections - I don't know what, but given that someone else is also having the same problem suggests it's not just simple config issue. The fact that I got it working with a rollback confirms this too.
Where are the devs?
