1.47.42 FTP server "parse error!"

[zerthimon]

Fresh CFW 4.89 Evilnat Cobra CEX Installed wMM 1.47.42. Trying to connect via FTP and get:

ftp> o
(to) 192.168.1.42
Connected to 192.168.1.42.
220 webMANftpd 1.47.42 MOD [NTFS:0]
Name (192.168.1.42:user): anonymous

Password: 
230 OK
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> ls
202 OK
parse error!
ftp>

Is there anything I'm missing here?

Try a different FTP Client. FileZilla is one of the most popular FTP clients reported to be compatible with webMAN MOD.

Using FTP in Windows works without issues:

Hmm, well, weird. This is linux ftp client I'm using with many FTP servers...

[aldostools]

Maybe that client is translating LS to an unsupported FTP command.

The internal FTP commands supported for directory listing are: "MLSD", "LIST", "MLST", "NLST"

This is the source code of the FTP server if you want to inspect it: https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/blob/master/include/ftp.h

Thanks!

This problem seems to exist because of 'EPSV' is not supported. Turning it off in client seems to help.

Thank you for your feedback. EPSV/EPRT are not supported commands. Use PASV/PORT.

Thanks @zerthimon !!! I am writing some code to automatically move some files from NAS to the PS3 and ran into this issue as well. Works like a charm, thank you!
