Hi, I’m using ProFTPD as per suggestion for FTP server on my pi, however, I’m experiencing an issue where every big file (I suspect bigger than 4.3 GB) are displaying incorrect size (for example, a 50 GB movie displays as a 4 GB), hence, resulting in a corrupt file when transferring.
Looks like ProFTPD has some macros to remove the 4GB limit, how can we use it?
They are all ext4 besides a single partition (128M) which is vfat — I assume this is the boot partition or something. Anyway, I’m not using the drive containing that partition, I’m accessing the external drive which is ext4 from a MacBook Pro which in its turn uses APFS.
I tested with default installation and copied a 6,x GB file via windows explorer (from NTFS partition) to my Pi3, without issues. It shows correct size in the win exporer, also in FileZilla and via CLI on the device itself
Just can confirm this. Transferred a 10GB demo file using WinSCP (FTP protocol). No issued there and as well on Windows explorer, file is showing up correctly.
Might this be an issue of the MacOS app? I don’t have an Apple device to test. Just download a 10GB demo file using FTP on Windows Explorer without issues.
