I am getting an error when trying to sync a large file (88MB) to our FTP site.
The error is:
Cannot write file "ftp://ftp.sitename.com.au/Sync/...filename.fddb.ffs_tmp".
CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT: FTP response timeout
150 Accepted data connection [curl_easy_perform]

I have been syncing smaller files successfully to the same location.
The file is a single zip file.
Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried manually FTPing the file over to the same server and directory? It might not be an issue with FFS.

Hello Taob,
Thankyou for your suggestion.
I tried manually FTPing the file which worked.
I then tried FreeFileSyncing the file and it now works, I tried another large similar zip file and it also worked.

The other day FreeFileSync would not sync the file. It was tried multiple times using different computers and at different times. I could sync smaller files to the same folder.

FTPing the same file works nice but as soon as the file are a little bit larger, then FFS trying to write a temp-file into the the FTP-folder which case the error.
