Some days ago I installed fileZilla sever on my window web server for the first time.
I remember when I install for the 1st time, I type form.kr in Host and 15000 port
After that Actually I did remove it and reinstall it several times.
For the 2nd time later installing, it didn't ask hostname, and I didn't change default port "14147".

Anyway when I click the icon of FileZilla Server, it says like the following.
FileZilla Server 0.9.60 beta

Trying to reconnect in 5 seconds
Connecting to server form.kr:15000...

How can I fix the error?

If you want to administrate an instance remotely, you need to first locally connect and enable remote administration,

When I click FileZilla Server icon on the computer installed the web server, The quote above is shown
Can I say it I try to connect it locally?

I never connected it remotely, I will connect it remotely after I succeed to connect it locally.

How to succeed to connect locally and enable remote administration ?

You need to use localhost as Host name. Default admin port is 14147.

I did as what you said.

Transport Layer Security. FTP over TLS is for FTP exactly what HTTPS is for web browsing. I's FTP with end-to-end encryption.
