    Looks like an issue with your data channel.

     

    Are you receiving this from the FTP client? Do you have an FTP profile on the virtual server?

     

    Also, are you allowing TCP/51036 through your network, i.e. do you have any firewalls that may be blocking the flow?

    Yes we are receiving the error on FTP server also we are not using ftp profile.Now we have used FastL4 profile to run SFTPS and it's working now. Thanks for your comments.
