I am trying to connect to FTP using Python ftplib but it shows connection was successful but each time I run any server command it fails with TimeoutError. NOOP command shows 200 NOOP ok. response but when I try ftp.dir() or any server command it fails with following error.
PyDev console: starting.

I tried with ftplib.FTP() as well, shows same error.
ftplib works fine with other NON-SSL server.Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS with vsftpd.FTP user is created with vestacp./etc/passwd file.FileZilla without any delay from same local server.Here is the vestacp vsftpd configuration:
anonymous_enable=NO
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
local_umask=022
anon_umask=022
anon_upload_enable=NO
dirmessage_enable=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
xferlog_std_format=YES
dual_log_enable=YES
chroot_local_user=YES
listen=YES
pam_service_name=vsftpd
userlist_enable=NO
tcp_wrappers=YES
force_dot_files=YES
ascii_upload_enable=YES
ascii_download_enable=YES
allow_writeable_chroot=YES
seccomp_sandbox=NO
pasv_enable=YES
pasv_promiscuous=YES
pasv_min_port=12000

force_local_data_ssl=NO
force_local_logins_ssl=NO
rsa_cert_file=/usr/local/vesta/ssl/certificate.crt
rsa_private_key_file=/usr/local/vesta/ssl/certificate.key
I have changed pam_service_name from vsftpd to ftp and added pasv_address in the vsftpd configuration file.
pam_service_name=ftp
pasv_address=public_ip_address_of_server
And following code worked after vsftpd restart.
>>> ftps = ftplib.FTP_TLS(server_host_address)
>>> ftps.login(username, password)
'230 Login successful.'
>>> ftps.prot_p()
'200 PROT now Private.'
>>> ftps.dir()
