FTP giving unexpected status messages; not uploading?

[akirmse]

I'm trying to upload to an ftp server that requires anonymous login. Here's my code:

    private static let FTP_SERVER_NAME = "ftpnos.woc.noaa.gov"
    private static let FTP_USERNAME = "anonymous"
    private static let FTP_PASSWORD = "[email protected]"

    private func sendDataViaFtp(data: Data, remoteFilename: String, callback: @escaping (_ success: Bool) -> ()) {
        let ftpUrl = URL(string: "ftp://\(SurveyMarkerReporter.FTP_SERVER_NAME)")!
        let credential = URLCredential(user: Self.FTP_USERNAME, password: Self.FTP_PASSWORD, persistence: .forSession)
        
        if let uploader = FTPFileProvider(baseURL: ftpUrl, mode: .default, credential: credential) {
            uploader.writeContents(path: remoteFilename, contents: data, overwrite: true) { error in
                if let error = error {
                    log.warning("Unable to upload file via FTP: \(error)")
                    callback(false)
                    return
                }
                callback(true)
                return
            }
        } else {
            log.error("Couldn't create FTP uploader")
            callback(false)
        }
    }

I'm getting 220 and 331 status messages back (see logs below), which sound like potentially there isn't really an error, but uploading has not occurred. I don't control this FTP server and can't see what's happening on the server side.

Stepping through the FTPProvider code, I think maybe it's not expecting many lines of response when logging in? After many retries, one upload did eventually succeed, so this is close to working.

Here's a transcript of logging in via command-line ftp:

After doing a little more tracing, I think the problem might be that the server sends some of the 220 responses, so FTPProvider immediately sends the login name. But then more of the initial 220 responses arrive, which the provider is incorrectly interpreting as the response to the username login.

I see there are some 0.1 sec sleeps in the code, perhaps an attempt to wait until the server has sent everything? But that doesn't seem very robust.
