File transfer failed

#1 Post by gordonisnz » 2021-05-16 02:59

Hello. I am with a sahred host - powwebnn.com and when i use Filezilla i periodiaclly (though not always - but often enough to get annoying) i get FILE TRANSFER FAILED wjhen uploading files (usually text-files of 5-10KB

It uploads, fails, uploads, fails, uploads, fails, uploads, fails, uploads, fails, about 5-6 times. I try again - & it does the afil loop. Then all of a sudden it allows me to upload.

The password is Ok (otherwise how can i access FTP at all ?)

You are not permitted to upload this file for some reason. Sadly the server doesn't tell you why. Please contact your server administrator or server hosting provider for further assistance, they can tell you the reason.

FURTHER: Ive confirmed with my ISP that i have a static / unique IP. no one else has that IP.

Ive checked with my hosting & one problem (they suggest) is that the Filezilla creates a new connection each time. is this true ?

and if it is true, how do i tell Filexilla to use the SAME connection as previous (or disconnect completely)

Does Filezilla create a new connection over & over ?

FTP uses separate data connections for each and every transfer, be it file transfer or a directory listing.
