FTP Passive issue
Posted: 31 Oct 2017, 14:22
I just had a new server created CentOS7 / EA4 with Apache 2.4/PHP5.6
The previous server was CentOS6.9 / EA 3
Both with CSF of course, and settings copied from the old to new.
I've run into a problem with some php backup scripts that send a mysql dump file offsite.
The scripts (which have been running for years on the old server) are failing around the ftp connection and transfer.
Here's the code snippet around the failure . . .
Here's the error message
I opened a ticket at cPanel and they looked at the issue and said that it works when CSF is disabled, and only appears when it's enabled.
Here is their response to my ticket.
Thanks.

Can you suggest what settings I should look at, or any information you need.When CSF is enabled I am not able to get a data control session.

but when disable I am able without issues.
Because this works fine with CSF Firewall disabled this will need to be addressed within CSF itself. CSF Firewall isn't an application we provide and isn't something we can correct. If assistance s needed with CSF Firewall then please contact their support team
Thanks.
