An error occurred in the requested FTP operation. Detailed error description: The password was not allowed

Question

Hi All,
We are using FTP Connection in our SSIS Package which will take a flat file from the sharepath to another FTP Path.
We used SqlServerTableConfiguration to store all the connection. Initally we have stored only the below connection int he
SqlConfiguration table. ie only the server name
Note : We are not using XML Configuration.
ConfigurationFilter
   ConfiguredValue
PackagePath
Filter_ftp               
 pqrft- pcmnt.uk.acenentcapmc.com:21
\Package.Connections[FTP Connection Manager].Properties[ConnectionString]
while running the job we have found that we have not stored the UserName and password so we have added the below entries in the Sql Configuration table
In the Configurationtable we have the following entires
ConfigurationFilter
ConfiguredValue
PackagePath
Filter_ftp                    
pgrotmlceni
\Package.Connections[FTP Connection Manager].Properties[ServerUserName]
Filter_ftp
21
\Package.Connections[FTP Connection Manager].Properties[ServerPort]
Filter_ftp
abcdXYZ
\Package.Connections[FTP Connection Manager].Properties[ServerPassword]
Filter_ftp
pqrft-pcmnt.uk.acenentcapmc.com
\Package.Connections[FTP Connection Manager].Properties[ServerName]
Filter_ftp
pqrft-pcmnt.uk.acenentcapmc.com:21
\Package.Connections[FTP Connection Manager].Properties[ConnectionString]
In the package properties we have selected  "DontSaveSentivity" Option.
We are getting the below error message when we run the package through jobs after deployment and also we are getting the same error message even when we run the package from Bids

Hi Surendiran,
The issue should occur because the syntax of the ConnetionString property of the FTP Connection Manager is incorrect. In fact, the ConnectionString property is unnecessary. I suggest that you only use the four properties instead: ServerName, ServerPort,
ServerUserName, and ServerPassword.
