IIS7 FTP Setup - An error occured during the authentication process. 530 End Login failed
- by robmzd
I'm having a problem very similar to IIS 7.5 FTP IIS Manager Users Login Fail (530) on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.
I have created an FTP site and IIS Manager user but am having trouble logging in. I could really do with getting this working with the IIS Manager user rather than by creating a new system user since I'm fairly restricted with those accounts.
Here is the output when connecting locally through command prompt:
C:\Windows\system32>ftp localhost
Connected to MYSERVER.
220 Microsoft FTP Service
User (MYSERVER:(none)): MyFtpLogin
331 Password required for MyFtpLogin.
Password: ***
530-User cannot log in.
Win32 error: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.
Error details: An error occured during the authentication process.
530 End
Login failed.
I have followed the guide to configure ftp with iis manager authentication in iis 7 and Adding FTP Publishing to a Web Site in IIS 7
Things I have done and checked:
The FTP Service is installed (along with FTP Extensibility).
Local Service and Network Service have been given access to the site folder
Permission has been given to the config files
Granted read/write permissions to the FTP Root folder
The Management Service is installed and running
Enable remote connections is ticked with 'Windows credentials or IIS manager credentials' selected
The IIS Manager User has been added to the server (root connection in the IIS connections branch)
The new FTP site has been added
IIS Manager Authentication has been added to the FTP authentication providers
The IIS Manager user has been added to the IIS Manager Permissions list for the site
Added Read/Write permissions for the user in the FTP Authorization Rules
Here's a section of the applicationHost config file associated with the FTP site
<site name="MySite" id="8">
<application path="/" applicationPool="MyAppPool">
<virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="D:\Websites\MySite" />
</application>
<bindings>
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:80:www.mydomain.co.uk" />
<binding protocol="ftp" bindingInformation="*:21:www.mydomain.co.uk" />
</bindings>
<ftpServer>
<security>
<ssl controlChannelPolicy="SslAllow" dataChannelPolicy="SslAllow" />
<authentication>
<basicAuthentication enabled="true" />
<customAuthentication>
<providers>
<add name="IisManagerAuth" enabled="true" />
</providers>
</customAuthentication>
</authentication>
</security>
</ftpServer>
</site>
...
<location path="MySite">
<system.ftpServer>
<security>
<authorization>
<add accessType="Allow" users="MyFtpLogin" permissions="Read, Write" />
</authorization>
</security>
</system.ftpServer>
</location>
If I connect to the Site (not FTP) from my local IIS Manager using the same IIS Manager account details then it connects fine, I can browse files and change settings as I would locally (though I don't seem to have an option to upload files). Trying to connect via FTP though either through the browser or FileZilla etc... gives me:
Status: Resolving address of www.mydomain.co.uk
Status: Connecting to 123.456.12.123:21...
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Response: 220 Microsoft FTP Service
Command: USER MyFtpLogin
Response: 331 Password required for MyFtpLogin.
Command: PASS *********
Response: 530 User cannot log in.
Error: Critical error
Error: Could not connect to server
I have tried collecting etw traces for ftp sessions, in the logs I get a FailBasicLogon followed by a FailCustomLogon, but no other info:
FailBasicLogon SessionId={cad26a97-225d-45ba-ab1f-f6acd9046e55} | ErrorCode=0x8007052E

In the normal FTP logs I just get:
2012-10-23 16:13:11 123.456.12.123 - 123.456.12.123 21 ControlChannelOpened - - 0 0 e2d4e935-fb31-4f2c-af79-78d75d47c18e -

If anyone has any ideas than I would be very grateful to hear them. Many thanks.
