VMS "Operation timed out: connect" on login

Question

I tried version 1.2.3 and 1.4.6. With both versions I can't connect to a VMS machine. In both cases it hangs in

com.enterprisedt.net.ftp.FTPControlSocket.readReply()
in the line
String line = reader.readLine();

In version 1.4.6 it is line number 583

In version 1.2.3 after 23 seconds I get a "Operation timed out: connect".

In 1.4.6, the readLine() comes back in 15 minutes. But when I then put a file it fails.

Can you please help me?

Have you verified that you can connect to the machine from a command line FTP program?

From the windows comand line FTP it works perfectly well

Answer 3

To Windows or Unix, it works without problems. My code is simply:

ftpConn = new FTPClient( host );
ftpConn.login( user, passwd );

With a VMS host it hangs in login()

Answer 4

From a non-VMS machine can you FTP using a commandline client (eg ftp.exe) to the VMS machine?

To Windows or Unix, it works without problems. My code is simply:

ftpConn = new FTPClient( host );
ftpConn.login( user, passwd );

With a VMS host it hangs in login()
