Coreftp hangs randomly, window won't open

[tsi]

coreftp version 2, build 649, 64 bit

we are having strange issues with the server. Sometimes it would stop randomly.
When we click on program icon to restart it, it somtimes would give error of "sharing violation". Sometimes it would run but the window to configure will not open at all although it will receive connections in the background. Very frustrating.

We even updated to latest version 674 still same issue remains.
only way to get coreftp server working is to reboot the server but even then if we click on coreftp icon to open the console, we get error = 32 and the console might even open sometimes but the ftp service stops working.

I confirm that.
We got random failures to connect by our monitoring agent.
Service stop and restart solves it but it's not ideal.
Version 2.0, x64, build 668

if you are using global logging, uncheck it (Core FTP Server - system menu - global settings). Use "logging" in the domain setup instead.

If it takes a long time to open up the console, edit the CoreFTPServer\config.dat file, and remove the "logfn" field. It may be several pages long as is caused by an old bug.

This fixed my startup slowness for the gui, but the application still hangs constantly (avg. once or twice a day).

I have this too...from a long time ago. I just ignore it now Not that this advice helps you

no idea how to clear it but mine is nearly a year old

[ForumAdmin]

Exit Core FTP Server, edit the CoreFTPServer\config.dat

remove the line starting with :

Logfn=

and remove all data from that line and below it until you come to the next field which should be
Logf=1


Exit, save, start Core FTP Server.

Sweet, the GUI launches instantly now.
