Reason:
Error causes some authorization settings on the FTP server (exactly change working directory command):
03:35:56 131.177.83.170 [364]USER ????\???_??????????? 331 0
03:35:56 131.177.83.170 [364]PASS – 230 0
03:35:56 131.177.83.170 [364]CWD / 250 0
03:35:56 131.177.83.170 [364]created XI_ftp_d1e2e39e-a38f-4a81-0f3b-a307552a6a1f.tmp 550 5
03:35:56 131.177.83.170 [364]QUIT – 550 0
Solution:
In the XI FTP communication channel is not possible to left “Target Directory” field empty. Command CWD will be called and it is not possible to skip it. Instead of the root directory symbol “/” it is possible to put current directory symbol “.” to the “Target Directory” field. In such way file will be uploaded / downloaded from the default directory and there is no call to the root directory of FTP server. Command “CWD .” doesn’t raise an error.
