Cannot connect to PS4 using FTP #83

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 connected to a network switch with its built-in Ethernet port and I have a USB Ethernet adapter connected to it that is connected to my PS4 11.00. While internet on the PS4 works fine I cannot connect to the PS4 using FTP.

I am using FileZilla and have entered the IP address of the Raspberry Pi and set the transfer mode to Active but I receive the following error:

Status: Connection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".

I even toggled the FTP server on the PS4 off and then on.

Also for this do I need to enter the Pi's Username and Password in the FTP? Do I use port 21 or 2121?

I have tried with and without a username and password and port 21 and 2121.

Any idea on what I am doing wrong?

you use port 2121.
the connection should be anonymous and transfer mode active
connect to the raspberry pi ip address

i have not tested using the onboard ethernet and a usb to ethernet adapter, i have always used wifi + onboard so it might be that which i will now run some tests on.

I removed the USB Ethernet adapter and re-ran the sudo bash install.sh and now the internet is going through the WiFi of the Pi and I still get the same error message as before.

I'm using usb eth adapter on rpi4, and the ftp works just fine.

the problem is i cant replicate the issue, my filezilla connects.

i did notice the goldhen servers were a bit screwed up.
when i enable the binload server it kills the ftp server and when i enable the ftp server it kills the binload server.

Interesting, on my Pi3B+ both can work together. Goldhen needs some tweaking, but early days as this is a complete new JB.

I turned off the Bin loader and FTP still gives me the same Connection refused error.

The issue is definitely with the Raspberry Pi setup as if I connect my PS4 directly to my home network FTP works fine.

You could try re-installing RaspiOS Lite and do the whole process again from scratch. I'ts a bit time consuming but you can exclude a configuration problem. Definetly worth it in my opinion

I just did that to try to solve the Welcome to nginx issue I was having and now FTP works as well as no more Welcome to nginx. All is good for now.

Back to the same error again. All I did was update Pi-PPPwn on the Raspberry Pi and use the new Goldhen B17.2.

FTP was working using the new Goldhen b17.2 using the whatever version of Pi-PPPwn I had for the previous comment.

This is really infuriating.

Try to disable and re-enable the ftp server from goldhen. Sometimes it appens to me too

Already tried that. I don't know if it's an issue with using Rest Mode or not.

EDIT: I did a full shutdown and FTP still didn't work until I turned off FTP and then turned it back on.

It seems Rest Mode may be causing issues.

i have noticed if the network connection gets disrupted or changes the ftp server stops working and most of the time you have to re-enable it but that does not always fix it.

i am not sure why in goldhen it is bound to the consoles ipv4 ip address, most servers you bind to the localhost or 0.0.0.0 which allows them to listen for any connections from any ip.
this is why i put a delay in stage2 before loading goldhen, it is to try and allow the pppoe connection to establish before the ftp server loads.

we dont have the source to goldhen so we cant mod that but it would be nice to have the ability to delay the ftp server loading or check if the network is active before loading.
for now all i can do is delay the execution of goldhen in stage2 with the hope that the pppoe connection will connect before goldhen fires.
