HostGator problem with PASV time out with Fetch.sh?

Submitted by chrisjpopp on Tue, 2011-04-05 16:46 in

I got a Level 3 VPS with Hostgator and have the site uploaded via FTP and have ran the setup. Created the database.

When I tried to run my fetch.sh I got the following:

Connecting to datatransfer.cj.com|216.34.207.42|:21... connected.
Logging in as 3268407 ... Logged in!
==> SYST ... done. ==> PWD ... done.
==> TYPE I ... done. ==> CWD /outgoing/productcatalog/79055 ... done.
==> SIZE BetterWorld_com_New_Used_Rare_Books_Textbooks-Better_Wolrd_Books_Product_Catalog.txt.gz ... 379027756
==> PASV ... couldn't connect to 216.34.207.42 port 35142: Connection timed out
Retrying.

This is the first time I've had this problem. I've been trying other hosts for the last week and things worked fine (even if I was maxing out their MySQL resources).

This is from my fetch.sh:

/usr/bin/wget -O "feeds/BetterWorld_com_New_Used_Rare_Books_Textbooks-Better_Wolrd_Books_Product_Catalog.txt.gz" "ftp://username:password@datatransfer.cj.com/outgoing/productcatalog/79055/BetterWorld_com_New_Used_Rare_Books_Textbooks-Better_Wolrd_Books_Product_Catalog.txt.gz"

Anyone have any insight?

Hi Chris,

In your fetch.sh, try adding the no PASV option to the wget command line, so immediately in-front of the -O parameter, insert:

--no-passive-ftp

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
David.
