Cannot Connect via FTP Passive Mode
I can connect to my server via normal FTP mode ok. But when I enable passive mode in Advanced settings, I can no longer connect. PHP Storm just tries to connect and fail 3 times
I connect to the same server with the same username in Filezilla with passive mode, no problems at all.
Anyone with any suggestions?

Hi there,
1) FileZilla, depending on settings, may automatically switch to Active mode when Passive does not work -- double check your FileZilla settings, especially check the actual FTP logs
2) You may enable extended logging and see what exactly is happening: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241115-How-to-Collecting-PhpStorm-WebStorm-debug-Logs (after enabling and doing the FTP activity -- check details in idea.log file (Help | Show Log in XXX)
3) Is this plain FTP .. or maybe FTPS etc?
I decided to re download in a new project and it seems to be working in passive mode. I will see how it goes, because it has played nice before then stopped uploading and downloading.
Thanks for the reply. :)
