FTP Errorcode -57/0 FTP connection was idle and was closed
« on: October 22, 2010, 01:34:13 PM »
Dropped the NT4 FTP templates into a C55 legacy app to automatically download a file. Works great but........

One of my clients uses a Windows XP to run Terminal Server on a Windows 2008 server. Once logged into the 2008 server they click a link to the program with the FTP download - the link is to run the program on a Windows 2003 server. This generates the following error:

Errorcode: -57/0
Error: The FTP connection was idle and was closed.

If they go to the 2003 server and run the program from there, all is well and the FTP download is successful.

I know it has to do with how they are accessing the program from the XP to the 2008 svr to the 2003 svr, but am not sure where to start looking. "FTP connection was idle" - any more information about what this error really means?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
