Cannot list directory on IIS FTP server on Azure, even after configuring Azure inbound rules and Windows firewall

Question

I\'am running Windows Server 2012 in Azure, and I\'ve configured the FTP server in IIS. When I try to connect the server, it accepts the username and password and log me in

Answer 1

In Azure, we should deploy the passive mode FTP, we should add data channel ports range in FTP Firewall Support, then add those ports to NSG and windows firewall inbound rules.

By the way, although the windows firewall seems to allow all traffic that’s required, we also need to enable stateful FTP filtering on the firewall:

netsh advfirewall set global StatefulFtp enable

Then restart the FTP windows service and we should be up and running:

net stop ftpsvc
net start ftpsvc

Here is a similar case, same error as you, please refer to it.

Check which port does the FTP site listen on:
