Error 550

[oripigra]

When trying to connect to the server I recieve error 550 not showing the folder content, but being able to upload files and create new ones.

The permissions are configured as Read+Write, with username and password and same tot the macos folder.

am encountering this problem too.

if LS no issue can see everything but if I LS *.txt, then it will show error 550 Couldn't open the file or directory.

add on this is for version 1.8.1, new install on windows 10

Your client is trying to list the file or directory named *.txt, which does not exist. Which is expected, as on Windows, filenames are not allowed to contain asterisks.

even if got a test.txt it shows same. seems like older version have this issue already

All arguments are taken literally. There is not (and never really was) any support for wildcards * or ?. Any file list filtering must be done by the FTP client, not the server.

From my experience, wildcarded file descriptors used to work against old[er?] versions of FileZilla Server. I'm currently experiencing an issue where an app (the FTP client) has been passing LIST *.* or NLST *.* for eons, but my recently-upgraded FileZilla Server is now responding with "550 Couldn't open the file or directory". This same app worked fine on an [albeit very] old version of FileZilla Server (0.9.60) but does not appear to work after a recent upgrade to version 1.8.1. Unfortunately, the app offers no config related to its FTP list behavior.

The old beta server (different, outdated codebase) tolerated them, which was a violation of the RFC. They were never truly supported.

The new server strictly adheres to the RFC and does not allow anything else than a pathname. Clients relying on server-side filtering of lists are broken.
