Getting a filtered list returns 550 (Filezilla Server Pro)

Hello,
I am attempting an upgrade to FileZilla Server Pro from FileZilla Server standard. The standard version runs perfect allowing a "ls *.xml" but after upgrading to Pro the system returns a 550 error permission denied when trying to get a filtered list.
A normal "ls" works fine without issues, but the filtered list is failing.
The service is running under LOCAL SYSTEM just like the old version.

Please note that Pro customers have a separate support forum. See the 'sticky' post above:

Correct, but doesn't change the fact that the non-standard wildcard functionality isn't supported in the new FileZilla Server. Will be a while until clients adapt and resort to filtering the lists by themselves.

Ah, of course. The issue is not Free FileZilla server vs. Pro FileZilla server.
It is that both versions of the new FileZilla server do not support list filtering.
And the OP is comparing the 'old' free server against the 'new'' Pro server.

Wildcards were never officially supported, as they are not a defined FTP feature. The FileZilla dev has already stated that he does regret adding it in the first place, probably due to user whining. And see, they got used to it, and the unofficial feature still haunts us to this day.
What I meant is that he'd get the same answer in the Pro forums, too.

Ugg this clarifies things for me.
Thank you for responding. I didnt notice the post above for support for pro.
We have some coding changes to do
Thank you again for the responses!

Yeah, foolish me. I was so stupid back in my 20s. I cannot believe they let whippersnappers like me vote back then.

At least you do it, which will lead you to success. Others simply waste all their energy complaining...

We all were. Times were different, back then. I'm still stupid.
Maybe an add-on or plugin system would be the answer, with only the core functionality supported here. Limited additional functionality could then be added by user-created plugins.
