Publish to Azure FTPS constantly fails due to closed connections

DaiPlusPlus

I'm using PHP Tools for Visual Studio 2019, version 1.55.13858.2019.

Whenever I publish my project to Azure over FTPS using PHP Tools' Publish wizard it starts the publish process but after about a minute or so the publish fails with this error:

Publishing folder themes/backend/assets/admin/layout4/img...
Publishing folder themes/backend/assets/admin/layout4/scripts...
Publishing folder themes/backend/assets/admin/layout4/themes...
Publishing folder themes/backend/assets/admin/pages...
The server has closed the connection.
Publish failed: Publishing failed because the connection was closed unexpectedly.

If I keep on re-publishing then it will get further and further and eventually publish the whole site but this can require dozens of attempts.

The publish profile parameters are:

Server: waws-prod-bay-005.ftp.azurewebsites.windows.net
Site path: site/wwwroot
Security: Explicit TLS or SSL
Use Passive Mode: true

Thank you for letting us know.

~~It seems like a wrong timeout being set by our implementation (if it's closed every time after the same period of time?).~~

We should probably automatically re-connect, not terminating the publish process.

Hello @DaiPlusPlus

The recent update 1.55 (https://www.devsense.com/en/download) re-connects automatically, not terminating the publishing process.

I hope it helps. Please let us know if there would be anything else we can fix or improve.
