FileFileZilla Server 1.0.0-rc4 - multiple problems
Posted: 2021-07-22 18:24
I was happy to see that the Server got further development. For nearly two years now certain clients could no longer connect due to some issue with TLS resumption and a Windows Update.
With the new Server and GNUTLS this was supposed to be fixed, so I was eager to try it out, especially as it's labeled RC4.
However I never made it so far as to try that out:
-On the first try, the Server installed and the service was functional. It even imported most of my old settings. When I tried to adjust my passive ports though, it always replied "invalid value" or something. Even when I used the little arrow to adjust the ports only by 1 from the preset values. I did not capture that error explicitly as my pan was to do a clean reinstall and make it work.
-I was never to face the "invalid value"-passive port error again though, because every since I did a clean reinstall the service won't start anymore, and the gui won't connect anymore. If I try to start the service manually, it recommends looking up the error in the event viewer and to contact the developer:
The event viewer does not seem to appear to be all that helpful:
Any hints?
In a next step I'll try it on a different machine.
After reinstalling (I tried it several times now), also tried deleting the Program Folders (but x64 and x86) and the folder in AppData\Local.
Are there any other traces that the uninstaller might miss, but that once messed up keep the Server from working?
