FTP Server Fails to Open Data Connection (269285)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Internet Information Services 5.0

This article was previously published under Q269285

SYMPTOMS

When a client requests and receives a file from an Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 FTP server, it issues an 'ABOR' command to close the connection. At that point, if the client immediately tries to request another file, the IIS FTP server fails to respond properly by setting up the new connection. Instead, it issues an unexpected "425 Can't Open Data Connection" error message.
