Won't reconnect after timeout (input_pushback not null!)

[Doug Johnson]

When connected to a server via SFTP, and it times out and disconnects, FileZilla doesn't automatically reconnect when selecting a remote folder in the folder tree. Instead, it gives an 'input_pushback not null!' error, followed by another error: 'Failed to retrieve directory listing.'

Clicking on yet another folder will force a reconnect. It's just selecting the first folder that gives this error. It used to work fine, but has been broken for 6 months or so.

I am experiencing the same problem. I have FileZilla version 3.5.0. I get the following errors in the log file. The folder location is random. It is always the first folder that I choose after a period of inactivity in the client. I assume that a server time out occurs some time in the period of inactivity.

Connection Abort Error

It's disappointing we've had two public releases of FileZilla client since this was reported and there has been no comment or fix. This has been a problem for about a year.
