Upgraded 0.9.60.2 to 1.6.7

#1 Post by Gamefield » 2023-05-01 10:42

Hi,

After several years of faithful service by version 0.9.60.2 I did what I thought was the right thing, upgraded to the latest version, 1.6.7.
I kept all settings from the old version and crossed my fingers.
Error: Could not connect to server: Connection refused
I am using a NAT router (SonicWall) and forward port 2211 to port 21, ports 2212 through 2299 are used for Passive Mode and are not translated.
FileZilla is listening to port 21 on 127.0.0.1
Looks like the latest version have some differences from the old one?
Can anyone help?

Thanks ... Soren

If the server service is listening on 127.0.0.1, aka the loopback device, or localhost, then you can only connect to it from a client running on the very same machine.

If you want to connect to the server over the network, doesn't matter if through a NAT router or not, then the server must listen at least on an IP address assigned to the machine it is running on.
