Upgrade 10.1 to 10.4 FTP won't allow uploads

[littlefrog]

Today i decided to update my server from 10.1 to 10.4

I read all the upgrade issues and made sure on my end there were no problems such as the changes with sub domain dns issues and so forth.

I carfully reviewed the log file several times and the issue i am having is ftp will not allow files to upload.

Upon watching "top" command i can see the FTP account connects to server, authenticates, and issues "stor" command and then hangs.

Before posting i decided to reboot the server just to make sure it wasn't a hung service issue or something.

I checked the FTP log file "xferlog_regular" and its empty and not showing any activity.
I assume that a log entry is only created once the file has been successfully uploaded so this is not abnormal to me.

Anyone have any ideas?

SERVER INFO:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)

Found the answer

I had forgotten that i had this problem when i upgraded to 10.1

Passive port range needs to be specified and then that range needs to be reflected in plesk firewall.

I have added the following line to /etc/proftpd.conf

PassivePorts 60000 65535

PS the update wipes any customization to the proftpd.conf file.
Restarting services to see if it has any effect.

Yup seems to have solved the problem.

In closing...

If thats the only problem i have as a result of the update...

It really is the smoothest update of Plesk so far... off to see what else I can fine.

My luck and the API will be fixed this time.
