Your domain name must point to your hosting account. However, if you're not sure of your hosting account's user name, you can find it in the control panel for your cPanel or Plesk account. If you do not enter the correct user name, FileZilla does not produce a unique error. To correct this issue, reset the password for your cPanel or Plesk account. If you do not enter the correct password for your hosting account, FileZilla produces the following error: Command: Note: Need FTP help from a GoDaddy Guide?

P.S.: Please don't post messages telling me that I can use the router as an ftp server.Troubleshooting FileZilla FTP Connections On a small (and possibly useful) side note, SSH connections to my server work fine when I use the internal ip, but not when I use the external one (yes, I DID forward port 22!!!)Īny help is appreciated, thanks in advance! :D It just keeps timing out after the LIST command for any and every server, giving a 503 error. I normally used filezilla, but for some reason I can't configure it to work. Windows explorer displays the *extremely* useful message 'Windows cannot access this folder' or else gives an error at the passive mode command (that is only when I use the internal ip). I tried using both the internal ip and the dynamic address, but still could not get a connection. However, for some reason, when I try to connect to the server from a local computer, nothing works. (And I configured the dynamic dns also.)įrom that momment it had seemed that the server was working normally, as could access it, and I had a friend try to download files.

I also had a dynamic dns configuration.Īfter installing the tp-link router, I enabled both ipv4 and ipv6 firewalls (I don't use ipv6, but just in case) and forwarded the 56700-56800 ports to the server. I had those ports forwarded on the BT homehub and everything had worked perfectly. I've recently moved from my old BT homehub 2 to the n600 adsl+ router.īefore the upgrade, I had (and still have) a raspberry pi running vsftpd (an FTP server) with passive mode configured on ports 56700-56800 and the listen port is 56789.
