BRS WebWeaver have a dumb bug when trying to access
object, that not existent, with RETR command. Normal
behavior of ftp server will be print error message,
but webweaver just locks himself.
}-------- sample session -----------{
e@some_box$ telnet hostname 21
220 BRS WebWeaver FTP Server ready.
USER anonymous
331 Password required for anonymous.
PASS user@host
230 User anonymous logged in.
RETR blah
150 Opening data connection for blah.
}-------- sample session -----------{
Then i just close telnet session with webweaver and
try to connect server with ftp program.
}-------- sample session -----------{
e@some_box$ ftp hostname
Connection with hostname
}-------- sample session -----------{
That's all. Server is locked. No one can login in ftp
server. If i try to restart ftp server, then in my
log file will appear following:
}---------- from ftp.log -----------{
21/Apr/2003:17:30:27 - 195.**.***.** - User: anonymous - Disconnected
FTP Server Stopped
21/Apr/2003:17:30:38 - ERROR: FTP Server Fail to Start
21/Apr/2003:17:30:38 - Error 10022 in function WSAASyncSelect
Invalid argument
}---------- from ftp.log -----------{
Therefore, to restart ftp server u must close webweaver (with http
server) and run it again.
