I have a ListenFTP processor opened on a port and when i am trying to connect to it via FileZila i have an error "Failed to retrieve directory listing". The connection seems to be establish first but then this error occurs. enter image description here

Nifi is hosted on an ubuntu server running in a docker image enter image description here

ListenFTP processor is opened on port 2221 enter image description here

I tried to change some configuration in FileZila based on this issue but nothing worked.

The connection works well on localhost, i can connect to the ftp server and transfer files

Somone has an idea how to solved that ?

If you look at the documentation of the processor, it states that

"After starting the processor and connecting to the FTP server, an empty root directory is visible in the client application. Folders can be created in and deleted from the root directory and any of its subdirectories. Files can be uploaded to any directory. Uploaded files do not show in the content list of directories, since files are not actually stored on this FTP server, but converted into FlowFiles and transferred to the next processor via the 'success' relationship. It is not possible to download or delete files like on a regular FTP server. All the folders (including the root directory) are virtual directories, meaning that they only exist in memory and do not get created in the file system of the host machine. Also, these directories are not persisted: by restarting the processor all the directories (except for the root directory) get removed. Uploaded files do not get removed by restarting the processor, since they are not stored on the FTP server, but transferred to the next processor as FlowFiles."
