FileZilla Server no longer retrieving directory list?

[Diablosblizz]

Hey, I just logged onto my FTP to fix up a problem on my website and it won't show the directory listing. FileZilla (program, not server) says this:

Response: 331 Password required for root
Command: PASS ***************
Response: 230 Logged on
Status: Connected
Status: Retrieving directory listing...
Command: PWD
Response: 257 "/" is current directory.
Command: TYPE I
Response: 200 Type set to I
Command: PASV
Response: 227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,1,100,17,131)
Command: LIST
Response: 425 Can't open data connection.
Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing

That failed directory list happens about 5 seconds after it enters passive mode. The server doesn't say anything helpful:

This is hosted by Xampp, on a personal server so there hasn't been much changing. Although, I had to mess around with the Firewall the other day and added some ports, never deleted anything though.

Please keep in mind that this was working a few days prior to today.

Thanks for your support!

Seems to be a common issue.

Try changing from passive mode to active mode and set a range of ports to use then open those incoming ports only and see if that helps

The client has no control what port the server chooses for the data connection in passive mode, so in order to use passive mode, you'll have to allow outgoing connections to all ports in your firewall.

Perhaps a router/firewall issue or a FileZilla protocol configuration issue - does this thread at FileZilla Forums help - more informative replies to your query at the FileZilla forums than here perhaps.

This Google may have other clues and fixes.
