I'm trying to setup a connection to FTP to transfer a file. Unfortunately, because of the environment the tools I have available to me are limited.
I'm receiving the following error:
An error occurred while establishing an FTP connection.
Error: Connection refused: connect.
Does this mean that I can reach the FTP server but the credentials are incorrect? Does it mean that I can't reach the server at all? Or is there no way to tell?
Update: I changed the IP address I was using to some other random number, so it's almost certainly because I can't connect. I wish there was a way to tell the difference between connectivity and authorization issues.
A "Connection Refused" error means that either the server you're trying to connect to isn't running an FTP server, or there's a firewall in your way that's preventing the connection.
An "User Authentication failed" error would usually occur if your credentials are bad.
FYI, for plain old FTP connections, the cfftp.errorCode may give you more information, once your are able to establish a connection. The errorCode will point to the response in the IETF FTP protocol standard , like "425", which would mean "Can't open data connection.".
Could be either one of those cases. Do you have a standalone FTP client to test with? Does it work from another machine?
hey check if your directory attribute is begining with a "/" character. this used to work through cf8 but stopped working for me in cf9 (specifically 9.0.1);
also try the following and see if this helps:
<cfftp connection="mycon" server="myserver.com" action="open" username = "anonymous" password = "anonymous" />
<cfdump var="#mycon#" label="">
<cfftp connection="mycon" action="getcurrentdir" result="result"/>
<cfdump var="#result#" label="">
you may find that its the listdir that is giving you the problem, not the connection.
You can check your ability to connect to the FTP server using Telnet at the command prompt(On windows, Go to Start > Run > type cmd).
telnet my-domain-name.com 21
you can try at non default port as you wish. That will let you know if your machine can reach the FTP server, and you can try logging on to check your credentials.
Here's a good post: Understanding FTP using raw FTP commands and telnet

This week, I noticed my EC2-hosted website(.NET) would get this error about 50% of the time when trying to connect to my RDS database instance(SQL Server Express, Medium):
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while
establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or
was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that
SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named
Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
Nothing has changed on either my EC2 instance or RDS instance(SQL Server Express). The error location was random and sometimes a simple page refresh would fix it.
After messing around and experimenting for quite a while, I found that the error went away when I switched my connection string from this(connecting via hostname):
<add key="strConn" value="Server=xyz.grtrtgrt.us-east-2.rds.amazonaws.com;Database=myDB;User Id=dbUser;password=dbPassword;Trusted_Connection=False;pooling=false;" />
to this(connecting via IP):
<add key="strConn" value="Data Source=1.2.3.4, 1433;Network Library=DBMSSOCN;Initial Catalog=myDB;User Id=dbUser;password=dbPassword;Trusted_Connection=false;pooling=false;"/>
I know we should be using the hostname to connect to an RDS, but I can't figure out why it would suddenly start throwing errors like that.
Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks!
File "C:\Python27\lib\socket.py", line 224, in meth
return getattr(self._sock,name)(*args) gaierror: [Errno 11004]
getaddrinfo failed
Getting this error when launching the hello world sample from here:
http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/
It most likely means the hostname can't be resolved.
import socket
socket.getaddrinfo('localhost', 8080)
If it doesn't work there, it's not going to work in the Bottle example. You can try '127.0.0.1' instead of 'localhost' in case that's the problem.
The problem, in my case, was that some install at some point defined an environment variable http_proxy on my machine when I had no proxy.
Removing the http_proxy environment variable fixed the problem.
The problem in my case was that I needed to add environment variables for http_proxy and https_proxy.
E.g.,
http_proxy=http://your_proxy:your_port
https_proxy=https://your_proxy:your_port
To set these environment variables in Windows, see the answers to this question.
Make sure you pass a proxy attribute in your command
forexample - pip install --proxy=http://proxyhost:proxyport pixiedust
Use a proxy port which has direct connection (with / without password). Speak with your corporate IT administrator. Quick way is find out network settings used in eclipse which will have direct connection.
You will encouter this issue often if you work behind a corporate firewall. You will have to check your internet explorer - InternetOptions -LAN Connection - Settings
Uncheck - Use automatic configuration script
Check - Use a proxy server for your LAN. Ensure you have given the right address and port.
Click Ok
Come back to anaconda terminal and you can try install commands
May be this will help some one. I have my proxy setup in python script but keep getting the error mentioned in the question.
Below is the piece of block which will take my username and password as a constant in the beginning.
if (use_proxy):
proxy = req.ProxyHandler({'https': proxy_url})
auth = req.HTTPBasicAuthHandler()
opener = req.build_opener(proxy, auth, req.HTTPHandler)
req.install_opener(opener)
If you are using corporate laptop and if you did not connect to Direct Access or office VPN then the above block will throw error. All you need to do is to connect to your org VPN and then execute your python script.
Thanks
I spent some good hours fixing this but the solution turned out to be really simple. I had my ftp server address starting with ftp://. I removed it and the code started working.
FTP address before:
ftp_css_address = "ftp://science-xyz.xyz.xyz.int"
Changed it to:
ftp_css_address = "science-xyz.xyz.xyz.int"
I have a C++ application that used to read the data from the Firebird SQL server.
when I changed port from 3050 to 3053 it shows error like
DB Error : 0 : Unable to complete network request to host "192.168.1.47".
Failed to establish a connection.
unknown Win32 error 10060
Invalid connection string attribute
conf file is changed like
# Type: string, integer
#
RemoteServiceName = gds_db
RemoteServicePort = 3053
Fb connection string is
Driver=Firebird/InterBase(r) driver;DBNAME=192.168.1.47:CWNPFB;PORT=3053;UID=SYSDBA;PWD=********
Is there any modification is required to solve this? Application can read the data if the port is 3050.
The problem is with your connection string:
You need to
Remove PORT=3053 from the connection string (this causes the "Invalid connection string attribute" message)
Modify DBNAME=192.168.1.47:CWNPFB to DBNAME=192.168.1.47/3053:CWNPFB (to specify the right port)
You might also want to comment out (or remove) the line RemoteServiceName = gds_db, because you are now instructing Firebird to listen on gds_db (== port 3050), and not on port 3053. I believe it usually listens on the last one configured in the config file, but I'm not sure that is always the case.
Is your firewall configuration correct for port 3053? Another service may runs on this special port.
You could do the following steps.
Try to run the application on the database server, please change the IP to 127.0.0.1 or localhost.
If step (1) works: check out the firewall
If step (1) doesn't work: maybe try another port, check whether Firebird is running
I'm getting a "Socket Error: Connection reset by peer" message using the tradeclient c++ demo code from the quickfix download.
another user commented that it was related to network issues. if anyone has the solution it would be appreciated.

think i found the reason. the host I'm trying to connect with is using quickfix java which supports SSL. the quickfix c++ client doesn't seem to support the SSL enable tag in the session settings. finally had to resort to wireshark to determine this. i searched all over the web and many people were reporting this similar error. i hope this post saves them any anyone in the future from debugging endlessly to solve this "Socket Error: Connection reset by peer" error.
Two reasons I am aware of for "Socket Error: Connection reset by peer" are:-
1) Your SenderCompId/TargetCompId does not match with that of other side. In that case just make sure you are using correct one.
2) Other one is that sequence number expected by server is something different what you are sending. In that case just try with ResetOnLogon field ( in your registry file )to No and check if that resolves the issue.
There can be many reasons for this error. However, I doubt it that network is responsible for this error as connection request has been sent to server properly. You could search through the internet for wider range of answers.
Could well be firewall, have you the right IP and port, and permission to get there?

We got this error message when we had not correctly imported the security certificate.
This might seem like a duplicate question but it is not. I tried to go through similar questions but I couldn't find a fix for my problem. Here is my problem:
I need to set up an ftp connection on company servers.
I can easily connect to ftp server from fileZilla on my PC but when I try it over one of the server machines to the file server all I see is the following:
Response: fzSftp started
Command: open "*****#***.***.***.**" **
Error: Connection timed out
Error: Could not connect to server
Status: Waiting to retry...
Status: Connecting to ***.***.***.**...
Response: fzSftp started
Command: open "*****#***.***.***.**" **
Error: Connection timed out
Error: Could not connect to server
I googled the "Connection timed out"
error and I realized that the first place to check is firewall or router setting. these are outsourced to another company and they say that the issue is solved and it should work fine. I don't know where to look at.
I've had lots of issues with Filezilla. You may try another software first to see if Filezilla itself is the issue.
If you're on Windows, I highly suggest the open source project WinSCP (https://winscp.net/eng/download.php). For Mac, Cyberduck (https://cyberduck.io/?l=en) is solid (and free), though you may prefer Transmit.
I was having this problem after upgrading Filezilla. I downgraded it to a previous version and it worked like charm. I came across this ticket thread and it was absolutely helpful : Filezilla Support Ticket
Check your security group rules. You need a security group rule that allows inbound traffic from your public IP address(Google: What is my ip?) on the proper port.
Open the Amazon EC2 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/.
In the navigation pane, choose Instances, and then select your instance.
In the Description tab, next to Security groups, choose view rules to display the list of rules that are in effect.
For Linux instances: Verify that there is a rule that allows traffic from your computer(public ip) to port 22 (SSH).
For Windows instances: Verify that there is a rule that allows traffic from your computer(public ip) to port 3389 (RDP).

I need to set up an ftp connection on company servers. I can easily connect to ftp server from fileZilla on my PC but when I try it over one of the server machines to the file server all I see is the following:
<failure to connect code>
Please note that public IP and internel IPs will be a different address; such as 123.456.675.574 for the public but internal to the server network it will be something more like 192.168.10.574 .
This is why you can easily connect from your PC because it uses the public IP address but from the internal IP network of the company servers that address will not be valid, and the internal one would need to be used instead.
Try this, 200 is just an example, just increase it and try.
Edit --> Settings --> Connection --> Timeout in seconds = 200
