Hi, I'm new to FreeFileSync,

I'm trying to setup a two way sync connection between a local folder on my PC and a FTP location (Fritzbox NAS accessed via FTP).

Syncing FTP -> local works fine, but when uploading to FTP I always get such kind of error as in screenshot.

Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

edit:
It seems to have to do with FTPS (SSL/TLS), when I disable this and use 'plain' FTP upload to the FTP server works albeit with this warning.
Well I guess it's because Fritzbox is not really a 'proper' FTP server?

Hey, thanks for the fast reply.

With the linked beta version, on first sync I get a complaint that the db file is missing (see attachment) but when I click 'ignore' it creates the db file and subsequent syncs work fine.

Side question: I still get the 'server does not support the MFMT command' (see above), I assume that's server side (Fritz Box) fault, but does that mean using the 'Use database file to detect changes' option is useless and I should not use it?
