ControlChannelIOException: Read timed out

Question

Hi,
I get the following error message when I try to connect to my web based FTP server:

com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.ControlChannelIOException: Read timed out
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.readLine(FTPControlSocket.java:1014)
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.readReply(FTPControlSocket.java:1074)
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.validateConnection(FTPControlSocket.java:418)
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.<init>(FTPControlSocket.java:384)
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.<init>(FTPControlSocket.java:355)
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPClient.connect(FTPClient.java:958)
at com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FileTransferClient.connect(FileTransferClient.java:383)
at ijio.applet.desktops.modules.shared.classes.TeacherClass.run(TeacherClass.java:393)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

The code referenced at line 393 in my class is connect(). The code is the exact same as on a desktop application built to learn/test the EDTFTPj package which successfully connected/uploaded/downloaded files to and from the same FTP server.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

This problem is now fixed.

I could enlighten people as to the resolution, but I don't think I will get over the embarrassment of what a stupid mistake I was making and how it wasted 7 days of otherwise productive time. :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:
