Alfresco FTP 503 login incorrect

foxtrot1213 — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 16:17:21 GMT

Hi all,I am trying to access HTML files created in website, and this website is created using /wcqms/Ok, now the problem is that I can't access the repository using "admin" login of alfresco. This login and password works for alfresco share and alfresco explorer.The vsftpd is working fine on port 21

I know that the error might be one or two lines somewhere in config but I just can't figure it out.

I have tried to solve this problem by shutting down vsftpd but the problem still exists..

loks like I am talking to myself here..

Ok, I have solved the problem..and if someone else has same or similar problem then I hope that it will help him/her. I could have solved this problem earlier if I had a bit of pointer from Alfresco team but I guess that the last bit they say about reading forums is nothing more than a propaganda.
Anyways,

1. If your Alfresco FTP is running on port 21 then make sure that the FTP program/demon in your Linux distribution is off. Im my case it is vsftpd running on port 21. Of course, you can skip this step if you are running alfresco FTP in another port.


root@myserver:/opt/alfresco#  service vsftpd stop
vsftpd stop/waiting
‍‍‍‍

2. Ok, vsftpd is stopped. Now, we will check if our ports are really configured port 21?

a) Check file-server.properties. This is located in /opt/alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/subsystems/fileServers/default/file-servers.properties in my case:


### FTP Server Configuration ###
ftp.enabled = true
ftp.port = 21
ftp.ipv6.enabled = false
‍‍‍‍‍‍

b. Check file-servers.xml. I can't remember the path. Search around.


 <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="FTP Server">
      <serverEnable enabled="true"/>
      <!– Run on a non-privileged port –>
      <port>21</port>
     <!– IPv6 support –>
     <IPv6 state="false"/>
      <!– FTP authentication –>
      <!– Available types are 'alfresco' and 'passthru' –>
      <authenticator type="alfresco"/>
      <!– FTP server debug settings –>
      <!– Enable 'log4j.logger.org.alfresco.fileserver=debug' in log4j.properties file –>
      <debug flags="File,Search,Error,Directory,Info,DataPort"/>
   </config>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

c. Check alfresco-global.properties file


[code]
### FTP Server Configuration ###
ftp.enabled = true
ftp.port = 21
ftp.ipv6.enabled = false
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

3. Restart the alfresco system. Mean, you need to start the whole damn alfresco, not only webserver. First shut it down


root@myserver:/opt/alfresco# ./alfresco.sh stop
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /opt/alfresco/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /opt/alfresco/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /opt/alfresco/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /opt/alfresco/java
Using CLASSPATH:       /opt/alfresco/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar
Killing: 13421
/opt/alfresco/tomcat/scripts/ctl.sh : tomcat stopped
/opt/alfresco/mysql/scripts/ctl.sh : mysql stopped
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Now start the server


root@myserver:/opt/alfresco# ./alfresco.sh start
110728 09:54:30 mysqld_safe Logging to '/opt/alfresco/mysql/data/mysqld.log'.
110728 09:54:30 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld.bin daemon with databases from /opt/alfresco/mysql/data
/opt/alfresco/mysql/scripts/ctl.sh : mysql  started at port 3306
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /opt/alfresco/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /opt/alfresco/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /opt/alfresco/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME:        /opt/alfresco/java
Using CLASSPATH:       /opt/alfresco/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar
/opt/alfresco/tomcat/scripts/ctl.sh : tomcat started
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Viola, FTP up and running at port 21 in my case.

I have installed Alfresco enterprise3.4 on a clean Windows Server 2008 (x86) machine. The machine is on a domain controlled ,
Unfortunately, when the windows firewall is open i can't access my data so i configured Windows firewall to be allowed with Alfresco exception FTP protocol and port but i still can't access my data ,when i block windows server 2008 firewall i can access my data without any problems,so i need to reconfigure Windows firewall to be allowed when i using FTP protocol ,
Does anyone have any ideas for something to try?
