When my application tries to download a file from an Ftp server (running on a Pi zero W with DietPi) it throws the error above, but when I tried with other phones(Xiaomi Redmi 4x with android 6.0 and Samsung Galaxy J5 running on android 7.0) the error does not occur, only on the Samsung galaxy s7 running android 7.0. Also, uploading still works from the same phone
Invalid server reply (MLST): '250-modify=20180603012615;perm=adfrw;size=3679098;type=file;unique=801U4A;UNIX.group=0;UNIX.mode=0777;UNIX.owner=0; /C-jegyzet.pdf'And the class that throws the error:

int progress;
@Override

{
int port = 21;
FTPClient client = new FTPClient();
try
{
client.connect(server, port);
client.login(username, password);

client.setCopyStreamListener(new CopyStreamListener() {

{

if(progress > 50000)
{

}
});
boolean isSuccessful = client.retrieveFile(strings[0], outputStream);
client.logout();
outputStream.close();
return isSuccessful;
} catch (IOException e) {

Log.d("ftperror", errorMessage);
return false;
}
}

}
if (aBoolean)
{

}
else
{
Toast.makeText(context, R.string.file_handler_download_failure, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if (!errorMessage.equals(Constants.ErrorCodes.NO_ERROR_CODE))
{
DisplayFilesActivity displayFilesActivity = (DisplayFilesActivity)context;
displayFilesActivity.showError(errorMessage);
}
}
}
}I figured it out. The problem was not with the retrieve file but actually with the mlist method. Turns out my ftp server doesn't actually support the command. Using a list with the file as the argument had the same effect and my code works with that
