Strange FTP Adapter Error

Recently I got these two errors with EventID 5740 from a FTP Receive Location:

  • The adapter "FTP" raised an error message. Details "WARNING: An unexpected failure occurred when attempting to disconnect from the remote FTP server. The error code was 0x8004200C ".
  • The adapter "FTP" raised an error message. Details "A failure occurred when parsing the remote folder listing. ".

The strange behaviour was that BizTalk got alle files from the Receive Location, succesfully processed it and after some minutes the Receive Location was shut down.

I finally found out that there problem was a problem with the file mask - after changing the mask from *.xml to *.* (which was ok in my case) it worked without problems. But don't ask me for the reason - I have to admit I don't know. Perhaps I will find some time to do further investigations....

    I am receiving the "...failure...parsing the remote folder listing. " error right off the bat and it is not pulling anything down at all...
    The adapter "FTP" raised an error message. Details "A failure occurred when parsing the remote folder listing. ".

    This receive location used to work just fine and the configurations, account settings etc are the same - it just stopped working one day. I've tried playing around with the filemask as suggested above, restarting the host instances, etc, but nothing seems to be working. The FTP log tells me pretty much nothing, but I can see that it is not querying the folder listing for my filemask... Any ideas?
