Hello,

I am using edtFTPj/Free version 2.0.2

I am getting this error -

java.net.SocketException: Connection reset by peer: socket write error

when doing this -

FileTransferClient ftp = new FileTransferClient();
ftp.setRemoteHost(host);
ftp.setUserName(user);
ftp.setPassword(password);
ftp.connect();
ftp.getAdvancedFTPSettings().setConnectMode(FTPConnectMode.PASV);
ftp.setContentType(FTPTransferType.BINARY);
ftp.changeDirectory(directory);
while ( st.hasMoreTokens() )
{
ftp.uploadFile(resultDir + localFile, remoteFile);
}
ftp.disconnect();

The error does not happen every time, maybe 10% of the time.

Any help would be appreciated.

This is the debug info -

Looks like the server is terminating your connection. It could be that you are transferring a lot of small files in succession. You might need to space them out a bit.

I have the same problem also. Large file transfer is fine.
What you mean by "..need to space them out a bit.."?
Can you clarify what should be done on that?

Each FTP transfer consumes a socket, and there's only a finite number available to a process. TCP/IP doesn't immediately return closed sockets to the available pool - it takes a couple of minutes (google TIME_WAIT for more details).

So many small rapid transfers can exhaust the number of sockets. With FTP, sometimes you have to slow down the transfers by sleeping (say) every 25 files for (say) 30 seconds. You can also increase the number of sockets available - easy on Unix with ulimit.

After upgrading to ColdFusion 8 and not changing any of the ftp code, the "connection reset by peer" error stopped happening.

Interesting. There could have been a resource leak in the previous version I suppose, or some kind of bug.

I know this problem happened a long time ago, but I wanted to post my solution. I had the same problem because I was requesting many small files from the FTP server. The problem was that for each file I opened and closed my connection which was what wore all the ports out. So to solve my problem I opened my connection before I entered into a loop and then looped through my query, retrieving a file for each record in the query and saving it to my server, then closed the connection after the loop. This way you only use one connection and you don't overtax the ports.
