Unhappy File missing a byte when FTP to my server - causing CRC error


Hello,

I have a major issue with my server that receives files via FTP.

I have narrowed the problem down to any file size over 30KB loses from 1 byte to 5 bytes when transferred across. For example the file size is 200,000 bytes, but when FTPed it is only 199,999 bytes on my server.

I am getting a CRC error so the file is corrupt and I can't use it.

When I FTP to other servers everything is fine and no bytes are lost.

I have tried lots of things, like binary transfer and non-binary, renaming the file, different file types but still the same error is happening.

Could it be something to do with how the FTP folder is set up, could it be something to do with the block size of the memory allocated to that folder? I have run out of ideas of possible causes

The problem was the clients server was sending them as ASCII and not binary
