Invalid response to PWD command

Hi,
I am going crazy in using COM library on windows server 2012 R2.
My program has been running smoothly for years, interfacing with several ftp servers.
Now i have to connect on a new ftp server but my application doesn't work.

Using the GUI winscp or filezilla it connects correctly.

What can this difference in behavior depend on?

Re: Invalid response to PWD command

Can you attach complete logs (including the header)? Are you using the latest version of WinSCP?

Sorry but I didn't understand.
Attached you will find the log of the gui, in the previous post there is the log of the .net assembly.

thanks

Are you sure you are connecting to the same server in GUI and the .NET assembly? Did you double check the address? Also the credentials.

Unfortunately the logs are so anonymized that they are not really useful for troubleshooting this.

Are you able to do a network capture of both connections?
