Error backup from ftp

Hi everyone,

I'd scheduled FTP backup from a Linux server to a SMB Windows folder one.

My task is configured this way: // CentOs Platform
  • Destination ---> D:\Data\Backups\
// Windows Server Platform

I got random errors, but it didn't happen to the same files:
  • An error occurred while downloading the file "SOURCE" to "DESTINATION": "La cadena de entrada no tiene el formato correcto".
Cobian Log shows error in Spanish, although the program is configured in English

Tried changing file names but it still happens.

What kind of server are you running? vsftpd I guess? Or is it proftpd?

In the case I mentioned above, it was an ftp over ssh on a CentOS6 machine (I'm not sure if it's vsftpd or what kind of ftp) . However, the same error happens to me in another task that tries to save local data on a Seagate NAS that is accessed by ftp.
