Can't list a directory (tried passive and active modes)

I have a problem to list a directory of my Apache FTP server, while all other ftp client have no problem (filezila, flashFxp, command line FTP, Total Commander, etc.)
Here is the log:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

as you can see, somehow, it asks for CWD of incorrect path, therefore getting an error. Can you think of any reason for him to do that?
