FileZilla Forums

We are tyring to use the new 1.4 version of Filezilla Server on our new server, and when we try to setup user, it says 'Address is invalid' like attached picture.

Folder C:\FTP does exist and as shown in the background of the attached picture, so what did we do wrong?

P.S. Realy missing the old Filezilla Server setup, it was so straight forward and simple

The error that is being displayed is not related to user editing, but rather to the addresses the server listens on. There must have been some mishaps when converting the old config into the new one.

You should be able to find a settings.xml file under C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\filezilla-server. Please, as Administrator, open that file and look for the <listener> elements within the <ftp_server> element, then, if you have no issues with that, please copy&paste those elements here for us to have a look.

Tested some hypothesis locally, which led us to the conclusion that the error might be in the listeners for the administration protocol.

No need to fiddle with setting files, do this instead.

1) Open the configuration window
2) Go to the administration page

There, in the listeners panel, you should find a row with an entry that is not a proper ip address, but perhaps a domain name. Remove that row or change the domain name into an address.
