Is the process filezilla-server running?

How did you install it? Did you compile from source or you downloaded the Debian binary package?

The debian package download.
So I would need somehow to start the server automatically?

Normally the service starts automatically after installation.

You can start it manually by running as root, (or with sudo if available):

Code: Select all

systemctl start filezilla-server

knarfoe - did you manage to figure this one out.

Am facing a similar issue using FileZilla FTP Server 1.5.1 installed on Debian 11 (WSL2)

The problem has been fixed. FileZilla Server 1.6.0-rc1 was just released and contains the fix, plus others and new features as well. You might consider an upgrade.
