Why Am I Seeing an FTP Folder Error When I Open a Folder on an FTP Server?¶
Symptom¶
An error occurs when you open a folder on an FTP server. The system displays a message asking you to check permissions.
Possible Causes¶
The FTP firewall configured for the browser does not allow you to open the folder.
Solution¶
The following uses Internet Explorer as an example.
Open the Internet Explorer and choose Tools > Internet options.
Click the Advanced tab.
Deselect Use Passive FTP (for firewall and DSL modem compatibility).
Click OK, restart Internet Explorer, and open the folder on the FTP server again.
