It seems as if the FTP server doesn't know the PASV command. You could try
def set_pasv(self, val):
        '''Use passive or active mode for data transfers.
        With a false argument, use the normal PORT mode,
        With a true argument, use the PASV command.'''
to use normal instead of passive mode.

You should also pass the open file to storbinary instead of the read method.
