Archived Forum PostQuestion:
A customer of mine who uses my program is having problems to download files. Earlier I was able to fix issues he had by adding http-proxy support and very long connection, idle and read timeouts. He is now able to list the ftp directory contents, but downloading (GetFile) fails. Passive or Active mode doesn't seem to help.
When he uses WS_FTP pro he can download files. Any ideas appreciated.
Here is the sessionlog (I changed some hostnames and ip addresses):

Gert,
If an HTTP proxy is used with FTP, then the only valid choice is to use Passive mode. Therefore, you wouldn't ever want to try Active (non-passive) mode.
Check to see if these new builds solve the problem:

64-bit: http://www.chilkatsoft.com/preRelease/chilkat-9.3.1-x86_x64-vc9.zip
Thanks, we will give it a try and let you know.
It looks like the error is exactly the same. Any other ideas?

mmmm, he now tried in his production environment and it seems to work (FTPS with http proxy).
Perhaps still a few issues I might contact you later about.
