Windows 7: Anyone know why I get this FTP error?

Bryce · 19 Apr 2009

I'm trying to upload files to my FTP server and Windows 7 is complaining about it. I just click the library icon on the taskbar and enter the ftp://xxxx url and can browse it find, but I can't upload to it.

Here's the error I get when I try to upload something.

Try rebooting your computer first - then see if you can open a CMD window (Start --> Run --> "cmd") and and ping your FTP server if it does not work after reboot....

I'll try that. But I can access it as in login to it and browse and download files, it's just uploading that doesn't work. I tested Filezilla and that works perfect, but that's to much to do to upload to my server.

too much to do?

I us FileZilla all the time - it is dead simple.

However, I think that with Fx you might need to include your user name and PW in the URL, something like

Code:

ftp://username:password@xxxx

IIRC for it to work....

I open Filezilla, and it takes for freaken ever to come up. My CPU jumps to ~30% as well with it. Still don't know why. I might just ditch this and wait til the RC comes out. -_-

If Filezilla is too much to do then your doing it wrong.I use it on a daily basis and have to click maybe 2 times to upload something.

Maka, read his next reply - it is having to do with CPU usage and such.

@Bryce - I suggest that you get a newer version of FZ, or, if you're using a new alpha / beta release, downgrade to the last stable version....
However, did you try the user name:PW method I mentioned above? I think that is Fx specific, IIRC....

I tried the user: pass method, still gives that error. And, yes I've got the latest stable version of Filezilla.

I think I was just to used to 3.8ghz it all seems slow now lols.

Yeah we kinda posted at the same time i think.I've been checking Filezilla though and it doesn't eat up many resources at all and i'm using 3.2.4 RC1.

you're also on a newer build of 7 than he is....that could be the mitigating factor since he is not OCing, thus having specs similar to yours.

(His specs say he is OC'd to 3.8, but in reality he currently is not since he had to perform a BIOS upgrade and it reset his settings to default....all this was covered in another thread).
