What about now? Do you want to try upgrading to 6.9.3?
- Retired_MemberMar 26, 2018
Yes of course. I'm upgrading just now.
Will tell you in a couple of hours.

What happens after the upgrade? Or can you connect to FTP in another way?
- Retired_MemberMar 27, 2018
I've always had the ability to connect to that ftp.
Anyway, the problem occurs occasionally (let's say 50% of times, or, for a daily job, once it works and the day after it doesn't).
After the upgrade, for two days it seems to be working.
