839432 - Firefox FTP Client List command fails on a WinCE FTP Server

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1125816

(Core Graveyard :: Networking: FTP, defect)

Description

[ayuanx]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20130119 Firefox/18.0
Build ID: 20130119203203

Steps to reproduce:

Connect to any WinCE FTP Server with Firefox


Actual results:

Nothing, no directories, no files.
List command fails.


Expected results:

Try connect to the same FTP server with IE / ftp.exe,
then list shows correct directories and files.

I guess the same/similar bug exists in Firefox like this one in Qt.

Please attach a FTP log: 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Debugging/HTTP_logging
but use NSPR_LOG_MODULES=nsFtp:5 instead of the http log options.

We are in a period where ftp is clearly deprecated and in general, making changes to the code is riskier than letting it ride unless there is a patch and reviewer available to make a good judgment about it. So I'm going to wontfix ftp bugs related to enhancements, interop errors, etc.. We will be better off putting our energy into including a different js based ftp stack.
