I have created my Windows Azure VM from the Gallery using the WS 2012 + SQL 2012 image.
I am doing a POC using SSIS to pull files from an FTP site and load into my database. I am having a problem with the FTP task inside SSIS. The files I am pulling are plain text, so I've set my transfer mode to ascii in my SSIS package. My problem comes when I try to navigate to the remote path. I get the following error:
Error: An error occurred in the requested FTP operation. Detailed error description: 200 Type set to A.
500 Invalid PORT Command. 500 'LPRT 6,16,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,42,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,192,34': command not understood
If I type in the remote path and try to execute the package, I get the same error. I have created an FTP Endpoint for my VM using 22 as public and 21 as private ports. Is there something else I need to do to get this work?
I've found lots of articles on how to configure FTP services for an Azure VM, but that's not what I want to do. I want to run a SSIS package that uses an FTP task.
