What is the problem you are having with rclone?
Hello! I'm getting a "550 Action not taken" error when trying to copy files through FTP + TLS, to a server running "rclone serve ftp..."
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
Issue was found initially with version: v1.69.1
After seeing Rclone serve ftp over tls does not work anymore? I downgraded to 1.63.1 and then 1.62.2, but the issue persisted:
rclone v1.62.2
- os/version: Microsoft Windows 11 Enterprise 24H2 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 10.0.26100.3194 Build 26100.3194.3194 (x86_64)
- os/type: windows
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.20.2
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: cmount
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
FTP + TLS to Ubuntu running "rclone serve..."
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)
Server side:
rclone serve ftp ./ftp_test --addr 10.10.10.86:990 --passive-port "10000-11000" --cert /usr/share/certificates/pem.pem --key /usr/share/certificates/privkey.pem --user test --pass test -vv
Client side:
.\rclone.exe copy D:\sftp_test --ftp-host 10.10.10.86 :ftp: --ftp-port 990 --ftp-user test --ftp-pass jF40uHgcL6eJ_vAHW18JDrUujUk --ftp-tls --ftp-no-check-certificate -P -vv
Please run 'rclone config redacted' and share the full output. If you get command not found, please make sure to update rclone.
Not using config, running rclone with args, as described above

The connection works without issues when using other clients, such as Filezilla. And also works with rclone client if TLS is not used.
Thank you!
