Has anyone been able to upload to a web page on MySite using the FireFTP tool on Firefox 2.0.0.1 ?

If so, can you please give me an idea of the settings to use ? I am getting some form of connection but it won't display the files already on the site (which I created using Orange's FTP Mysite).

My web site address is of the form:

http://mysite.orange.co.uk/<...e_name>

and my user ID of the form:

<my_id>.freeserve.co.uk

TIA

Richard

Thanks for the link; however I am not using a Livebox - I am using a Netgear DG834 ADSL Modem/Router.

When I try to connect using FireFTP I get a 503 error.

In the Account Manager I have set:

Main:
Host: ftp://uploads.webspace.freeser...ve.net
Login: <name>@<my_user_name>.freeserve.co.uk|<website_name>

Connection:
Passive Mode: unchecked
IPv6: unchecked
Security: None
Local: <my_local_folder>
Remote: /

Advanced:
Host & Prefix: blank
Download & Upload Options: Leave Case Alone

Any ideas ?

Richard

I don't use Mysite, but are you sure you need the <name>@ part of the username? You certainly don't with the old Energis-hosted space.

Well, I've actually Googled the Mysite settings now; they're at:

http://preview.tinyurl.com/2pkmqh

Your user name was actually correct before. However, the server address is not uploads.webspace.freeserve.net, as it is for the Energis space. From the link above:

"If you use FTP My Site the FTP server address is sitebuilder.orange.co.uk."

So that'll be your problem.

Thanks for that.

I've made the substitution but there is still an error:

--

501 Invalid number of arguments.

425 Can't build data connection: Connection refused

Here's an extract from the log:

Do I also need to amend my Firewall rules ?

I can only suggest trying passive mode to see if that works. Beyond that, no ideas, I'm afraid.

Switching to passive mode stops the error messages, but the system seems to time out when trying to list the files at the remote site (ie LIST -al), therfore I supect I am trying to access the wrong folder on the server.

I really need someone who has performed this operation successfully to indicate the form of the PATH I should enter into the Remote (connection) field - which the FireFTP Tool outputs as a CWD instruction.
