Reset admin interface?

I am having trouble getting in to the admin site via 5466, all other connections to the ftp-site seems to work(ssh/ftp/https)

Doing a netstat -l also show it is listening on port 5466, is there some way to reset the admin interface?
I've tried running the setup a few times, changed ports and username/pw, but does not fix it either.

Did you add some IP access rules for the web admin? If you did, just remove the related rules. But you can always login the web admin on the local server machine, using the tray application or browse it via "http://127.0.0.1:5466".

I am running it on Ubuntu Server 16.04, so no web-browser...

OK, so you can try to remove the file "Data/_ADMINISTRATOR/settings.xml", and then restart the WingFTP service.

Please make sure the admin port is not blocked by the Linux firewall, you can test it on the local server machine:

Code: Select all

telnet 127.0.0.1 5466

Hi, i have the same issue.
Cannot reach administrative interface. All other services are working.
Port 5466 is listen but go in time_wait with new requests.

This is the result of my telnet test.

[DISCxx@service.lcl@sc-wftp02 ~]$ telnet 127.0.0.1 5466
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
