I realized that MONSTA FTP won’t upload the images and I get an error every time I try to upload images, so I decided to use Filezilla (my fav FTP tool) instead simply won’t connect to the FTP.
I was getting this:
Error:
GnuTLS error -110: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.
Status:
Server did not properly shut down TLS connection
Error:
The data connection could not be established: ECONNABORTED - Connection aborted
First, I checked Filezilla troubleshooting and I realized the problem was that I had to disable “secure” TLS connections. After selecting “Only use plain FTP (insecure)” hit Okay > accept all the warnings bout insecure connections > still not connect. I got this:
Status:
Connection established, waiting for welcome message…
Status:
Plain FTP is insecure. Please switch to FTP over TLS.
Status:

You should not disable secure FTP connections unless you absolutely have to. The TLS error you saw initially is just your connection being kicked out for inactivity, just not quite so clean because of the encryption. But you should still keep encryption enabled.
So, in other words, all of the errors you’re showing here are completely normal.
What else do you see when you try to connect to the FTP server? Does the file and directory list appear? Are you able to start a transfer?
Can you please elaborate on this? What error do you get and how does that mean that MonstaFTP won’t ever work?
If I disable the plain FTP, it just won’t connect. I’ll get the GnuTLS error- 110 every time
When I disable TLS check, I CAN reach the “Logged in” Status — but when it shows: “Retrieving directory listing…” nothing comes up and then I get the t/o message:
Error:
Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity
Error:
Failed to retrieve directory listing
MONSTA uploads the images Folder, okay, but Empty. When I try to upload the images manually I get an error “file not found”(?) which is super weird.
Tried drag n drop, hit the upload button, etc — but still the same. Btw, deleting the folder images
from the directory will show an error “File not found” as well xD
I don’t think encryption is the problem here. After all, it’s not like unencrypted FTP does work correctly.
I can test your account to see if I can connect to it. Can you please specify your account username or domain name so I know which account you’re talking about?
The SSL certificate for ftpupload.net is not self signed. It’s a trusted certificate signed by Sectigo. If you see a self signed SSL certificate, then it means someone is hijacking your FTP connection and you should abort the connection immediately.
Thanks, KangJL … I tried it, but I got the same results.
Error: GnuTLS error -110: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.
Idk, pretty weird … I remember this happened to me a long time ago with another server, and I think I completed the Host text field with an IP that the host gave me and it worked (instead of ftp://blablabla).
Thanks, Admin
Sure, you may check it. Username: epiz_27699666 . I appreciate it
Thanks, I’ve just tried those. Still not working … the same TLS conn error. I’ll install a different version of Filezilla just in case.
Yes, I did upload all the folders and files with no probs using MONSTA instead . However, when I try to upload the images they just won’t upload (tried: .svg, .png, .jpg) all the same.
