Using PASV FTP I get the error "Could not retrieve directory listing"

I am unable to connect properly using PASV FTP to my server. I am running WinSCP 5.7.5 on windows 7. It works fine it I turn off PASV mode. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is my log from WinSCP:

Re: Using PASV FTP I get the error "Could not retrieve directory listing"

Does it work using passive mode using any other FTP client?

I haven't tried another client. I will have to download one and try it.

I downloaded SmartFTP and tried it and it did not work. Looks like it might be on the server end.

It turns out that the problem was a firewall issue on the server side.
