Hey, here's another glitch

i tried installing modules using the dependency resolver (after trying search), but no matter what config i put in, it just keeps failing:

* No ftp server could be found.
* Unable to install getid3

it does download them to the /plugin_manager_cache directory.
the directory /plugin_manager_extraction remains empty.

tried with , :
(ie, 123.456.768.100:21), and :
, and all failed. (note, filtered addresses)

i also tried setting the directory to the correct path visible through the FTP login (which does work) and also leave it blank. i did not forget the ftp user name & password.

the FTP belongs to a GoDaddy shared hosting account. they are supposedly running PureFTPd with TLS.

maybe the problem here is this module does not support TLS (AUTH TLS)?
or Passive Mode (PASV)?
perhaps both?

If so, there's two issues on those matters:
ftps and sftp - http://drupal.org/node/584416
Working but not installing modules - http://drupal.org/node/360956

tags were filtered, so i'm typing again:

"tried with ip_address, ip_address:port (ie, 123.456.768.100:21), hostname, and hostname:port, and all failed. (note, filtered addresses)"

Same problem here, had no issues until some weeks ago this problem suddenly pops up.
It does download the packages in the right folders, but doesn't extract them. However it throws an error at me that it can't find the ftp server! Strange and very annoying problem. I'll dive into the code when i find the time...

Exact errormessage i get (as stated above): "* No ftp server could be found."

Has anyone been able to rectify this problem with the Godaddy grid hosting? I understand it is still working on regular shared hosting.
