Cant't create admin backup/transfer with ftp

[Jaska]

I 'm trying to create admin backup with ftp, but get this error:

Error during Backup Creation

Details

/usr/bin/ncftpls returned error code 1
FTP information invalid.

Tested with other ftp hosts and get same error. Login credentials are right and port 21 is allowed.

Is the ougoing port 21 opened aswell?

What if you manually test to connect to a remote FTP server from your server?

admin backup/transfer bug

System backup works with same ftp settings, pls fix admin backup/transfer bug.

Can you try with a bigger file? Maybe the problem is the backup file size.

You should try to run DirectAdmin in debug mode (http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=293) and run a manual backup with FTP remote uplaod.

With that you may have more detailed information on why is happening.

Also, in your last reply you did crate a folder, but i'd suggested you to try to upload a bigger file (big as a backup file).
