i want to make a server using xampp. i have already installed xampp and setting port 8080. php and mysql work fine but i can't access ftp from internet. Can you please suggest way how can I do this?
XAMPP comes preloaded with the FileZilla FTP server. Here is how to setup the service, and create an account.
Enable the FileZilla FTP Service through the XAMPP Control Panel to make it startup automatically (check the checkbox next to filezilla to install the service). Then manually start the service.
Create an ftp account through the FileZilla Server Interface (its the essentially the filezilla control panel). There is a link to it Start Menu in XAMPP folder. Then go to Users->Add User->Stuff->Done.
Try connecting to the server (localhost, port 21).
XAMPP for linux and mac comes with ProFTPD. Make sure to start the service from XAMPP control panel -> manage servers.
Further complete instructions can be found at localhost XAMPP dashboard -> How-to guides -> Configure FTP Access. I have pasted them below :
Open a new Linux terminal and ensure you are logged in as root.
Create a new group named ftp. This group will contain those user accounts allowed to upload files via FTP.
groupadd ftp
Add your account (in this example, susan) to the new group. Add other users if needed.
usermod -a -G ftp susan
Change the ownership and permissions of the htdocs/ subdirectory of the XAMPP installation directory (typically, /opt/lampp) so that it is writable by the the new ftp group.
cd /opt/lampp
chown root.ftp htdocs
chmod 775 htdocs
Ensure that proFTPD is running in the XAMPP control panel.
You can now transfer files to the XAMPP server using the steps below:
Start an FTP client like winSCP or FileZilla and enter connection details as below.
If you’re connecting to the server from the same system, use
"127.0.0.1" as the host address. If you’re connecting from a different
system, use the network hostname or IP address of the XAMPP server.
Use "21" as the port.
Enter your Linux username and password as your FTP credentials.
Your FTP client should now connect to the server and enter the /opt/lampp/htdocs/ directory, which is the default Web server document root.
Transfer the file from your home directory to the server using normal FTP transfer conventions. If you’re using a graphical FTP client, you can usually drag and drop the file from one directory to the other. If you’re using a command-line FTP client, you can use the FTP PUT command.
Once the file is successfully transferred, you should be able to see it in action.
I launched ubuntu Xampp server on AWS amazon.
And met the same problem with FTP, even though add user to group ftp SFTP and set permissions, owner group of htdocs folder.
Finally find the reason in inbound rules in security group, added All TCP, 0 - 65535 rule(0.0.0.0/0,::/0) , then working right!
On XAMPP click "Start" and after "Admin".
Login to localhost (127.0.0.1) without password, with second port, not with 21.
Add users and passwords, change your settings. Quit.

How can I access termux files using ftp? I wants to write files using ftp, so i can use good editor for edit files.
My question is how can I set up my ftp server in termux?
You have to start ftp server in termux, for starting server you have to use tcpsvd for binding port.
tcpsvd -Ev localhost 8023 ftpd /sdcard
Now open ftp client or go to browser with ftp://localhost:8023
It will show all sdcard content, use more ftpd option to explore ftp.
Well, after looking for many solutions. I came here now.
I am setting up WHM/cPanel for hosting website. Everything was going smooth but I am stuck on FTP connection (Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead.)
Server Details:
CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core)
WHM/cPanel Version 11.58.0.13
FTP Server: PureFTPD
Acutal error while connecting
To fix this issue and get FTP working you need to open up more numbered ports so FTP can connect. I assume you are using CSF.
Login to WHM then go to CSF >> Firewall Configuration >>
allow TCP_In 30000:50000 and TCP_Out 30000:50000
Once you made the changes Restart the firewall
Now you need to make changes in FTP config file to use these ports, you will find this file to this location /etc/pure-ftpd.conf
Now you will see a line as follows and you will need to uncomment it
# Port range for passive connections replies. - for firewalling.
PassivePortRange 30000 50000
Restart FTP Service and should work.
I am trying to connect to a remote host in PhpStorm 9 via FTP and it connects to the host but does not display any files/directories.
I am able to ftp and see files/directories just fine via FileZilla with the same ftp profile/settings I used in PhpStorm 9.
Why am I not able to see files/directories via FTP in PhpStorm 9?
Try switching between Active ans Passive FTP modes (option is located in Advanced Options dialog of the Deployment settings/preferences page.
I've set up a PROFTP server on a CentOS 7 machine. And I am accessing it from other machines (with windows servers) to send files to it.
I've created some rules to only enable to stor files to a certain directory and the subdirectories will have different ownerships. At this point they are owned by user.
<Directory pathToDir>
<Limit STOR CWD>
AllowAll
</Limit>
<Limit READ RMD DELE MKD>
DenyAll
</Limit>
<Directory>
So here is what happens to me.
I log in with user from a windows server machine and access first sub-directory (own user grp user), mput several files and the files are copied.
I log in with user from a different windows server machine and access second sub-directory (own user grp user), put file and I get confirmation code (200 PORT command successful), but transfer doesn't start, however the file is created on the server and it is empty.
If I use my laptop, everything works.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Or what is wrong with my FTP server?
EDIT: FIXED. It was a windows firewall issue, couldn't get response from the ftp server. Since my server has a static ip I managed to add an exception to the windows firewall allowing only that ip to have full access to the ftp rather than opening a set of ports.
these would point to a firewall issue:
If the connection times out (rather than fails instantly)
If a directory listing from the client also fails
as a workaround you could try passive (PASV) FTP.
Furthermore, how do you check a server to see if an ftp server is running on it?
Consider the following steps
Press Win+R
type inetmgr and press enter
it opens IIS
expand the list and if you find "FTP Sites" folder available then FTP is installed in your system
to check if ftp server is running or not expand "FTP sites" folder
u will find a sub directory "Default FTP Site".
right click on that subdirectory and you will find 'start','stop' and 'pause' options available there
if start option is disabled then ftp server is running on your system
you can also start it if not already started
To install FTP. just go to Add/Remove windows component and re install IIS with FTP services and you r done
to check ftp if ftp server is running or not on a remote computer
open your cmd and type ftp and press enter. then use command "open 172.25.65.788" or u can use your own ip address. if it asks for username and password that means server is running.
Just open your favorite ftp client, specify server url and click connect. If connection successful then ftp is installed and started on a server.
You can do even from windows console, just type something like (open Run dialog by pressing Win+R): cmd /K ftp {serverurl}
