Can some one help me to identify my problem with gftp ?

Hmm, not much to go on there. Can you try running it under strace?

Seems to by dying trying to open some file (strange sequence of escape characters).
Perhaps gftp is reading some local config file on startup. Could you try moving your ~/.gftp directory out of the way? EG.

mv ~/.gftp ~/.gftp.back

And then try starting gftp again?

Evo.

no result, still the same error.

rm -rf .gftp
strace /usr/bin/gftp-gtk
