Hi,

One of my users has reported a problem connecting to a specific FTP server via our proxy (running 2.5stable10).

The problem that's been reported is with an FTP site that uses authentication so we're using ftp://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/path/ in the browser.

The error the user is getting is (502 Bad Gateway):

(107) Transport endpoint is not connected


I've performed a packet capture and see the following events:

o Squid connects, logs in and changes to the correct directory.

o Squid issues a PORT command (Active FTP connection).

o FTP server acknowledges with a 200.

o Squid issues LIST command

o FTP server establishes data connection to Squid (three-way handshake
  successful).

o FTP server issues:

  125 Data connection already open; transfer starting.

  response

o Squid returns 502 Bad Gateway error to client within 2ms of the
  previous response.


This would indicate that Squid isn't happy with the 125 response from the FTP server. The following is the debug output from Squid:

2005/10/06 11:06:23| ftpParseControlReply: s = {125 Data connection already open; transfer starting.
}
2005/10/06 11:06:23| 125 Data connection already open; transfer starting.

2005/10/06 11:06:23| fwdFail: ERR_READ_ERROR "Bad Gateway"
        ftp://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/path/


I've checked through the patches and can't find anything related to this issue. I saw the one for a 250 response when a 226 is expected but nothing about a 125.

I can successfully connect to the FTP server from the command line on the proxy.

Any advice on this issue would be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance,


                                Neil.
