Thanks, I have informed the developer.

The file I have been using recently is 270MB. I have tried 1 GB and
larger files many weeks ago but needed to get a smaller file so I could
get through debugging my tests more quickly. I'll retry some larger
files soon.

Are the files perhaps larger then 2 Gigabyte? I have seen similar
behavior
with an older libcurl versions and the MS-FTP server. The application
passed a 64 bit filesize to CURLOPT_INFILESIZE (Which should be 32
bits). All
seems well but when curl checks the filesize at the end of the transfer,
it finds
an error and closes the connection. The closing of the command
connection
reaches the server before the last packets of the actual file transfer.
When the
command connection closes MS-FTP cleans up the file.
