Set the data transmission mode to port (active mode) in flashfxp.

During FTP operations, the FTP function of editplus is generally used directly. However, the FTP function of editplus cannot directly Delete non-empty directories. It is very troublesome to delete multi-level directory trees, so we use flashfxp.

 

In flashfxp, the following error occurs during connection:

 

[Right] data socket error: Connection timeout

[Right] list Error

[Right] PASV mode failed. Try port mode.
[Right] Port mode is successful. Please update your site configuration file.

 

Google: FTP data transmission has two modes: Active Mode and passive mode ).

 

The two modes initiate a connection in the opposite direction. The active mode initiates a connection from the server to the client. The Passive mode initiates a connection from the client to the server.

 

Whether the passive mode is used depends on the client program. You can use the passive command in the FTP command line to disable/enable the passive mode.

 

Flashfxp supports both modes and uses "use passive mode" as the default setting.

 

In flashfxp, how does one set the data transmission mode to port (active mode?

 

There are two methods: flashfxp 3.6.0:

 

　　Method 1. Modify the default parameters for connecting flashfxp to the FTP server

 

Option-> parameter settings... -> Proxy-> remove the hook before "use passive mode" and confirm.

 

 

　　Method 2: Configure sites

 

If flashfxp manages multiple sites, some sites need to use passive mode (PASV), and some need to use active mode (port), then we can also set each site:

Site-> Site Manager-> select the FTP site to be changed-> Option
Click "use passive mode" to remove the check box (gray by default) and apply it.
