lftp to webin freezes at `ls' at 0 [Logging in...] #1

Dear Rasko, I found that accessing webin.ebi.ac.uk from Linux does not work as described in your http://ena-docs.readthedocs.io For example, I found (or rather suspect) that feat-negotiation and ssl-encryption need to be disabled to get anywhere near logging-in.

lftp -e 'set ftp:use-feat false; set ftp:ssl-allow false' webin.ebi.ac.uk
lftp webin.ebi.ac.uk:~> login Webin-44164
Password:
lftp Webin-44164@webin.ebi.ac.uk:~> ls
`ls' at 0 [Connecting...]
`ls' at 0 [Logging in...] 

However, even then lftp freezes at the last line. Could you please provide a solution as to how Linux users can connect with webin.ebi.ac.uk via lftp. Thank you, Michael

Hi @michaelgruenstaeudl,

did you solve the (l)ftp question? We upload to ENA via FTP on a (almost) daily basis. All we set is ssl:verify-certificate no. Maybe this helps.

Best, Ivo

I have the same issue: After the ssl negotiation lftp sends a

---> LANG

... and that is the one that hangs

Hope it helps

lftp is not supported by ENA webin or by EBI services generally. Please use standard ftp or aspera, as described in the documentation. If you have further queries on this topic, please contact our helpdesk: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/browser/support
