FTP login command problems

[Walter1 8]

Hey guys,

 

 

Working for several hours to set up the connect trough the ftp command but i fail every time.

 

Im on a hostgator server and i tried many remote paths and put them obviously all in quotes.

The login etc are all 100% correct.

 

Anybody here who faced the same problems and found a solution?

 

It would save me a bunch of extra work when i got this thing working...

I just connected to my HG account without issues:

 

Connection Type: FTP

Server. ftp.yourdomain.com

Port: 21

 

For remote path try this (no quotes):

 

public_html

Hi HelloInsomnia,

 

 

 

Thanks for your great help, really appreciated. I got things running. Its not working on my laptop but for some reason it does on my vps.

 

One thing though, it uploads the file i want to but the file doesnt contain any data, just a empty file?

 

 

Does anybody know what should cause this to happen? Almost ready to pull my hair on this one lolz...

Hi Walter,

 

I had some problems with the FTP command, but after talking with support

I managed to figure out what was wrong.

 

When I tried to upload a file it was empty too and an error kept popping up.

 

This works for me:

plugin command("FTPCommands.dll", "connect to ftp server", "FTP", "ftp.[your domain]", 21, "[username]", "[password]", "/public_html") {

}

I cant seem to get FTP to work at all... I instantly get this error message... I mean instantly, there is no time to even try and make a connection, so this "period of time" is like milliseconds apparently. I have tried it with my hostgator account and my hawkhost account... I can connect just fine with filezilla... I don't understand what can be doing this. I even tried disabling the firewall and tried using the IP instead of the host name, and nothing works. Anyone have this problem? Whats weird is I cant get the ubot 5.5.13 ftp command to work, nor can I get aymens plugin to work... its like something is blocking ftp port it in ubot.

Note: I looked in fiddler and its never even sending the connection requests... so something is blocking it, but its not windows firewall... Anyone one know what else could do it?  I am on Windows 8 btw

Here's one from HG, perhaps on of these might help. 

 

 

FTP Troubleshooting Tips

If you are experiencing trouble connecting to your FTP program, please be sure to try the following:

• Toggle your computer's (or your FTP program's) firewall
• Try connecting with Secure FTP
• If your FTP program has a "Passive Mode," try toggling it off and on

dankass,

Here are the commands that I have been using successfully recently (version 4 of UBOT):

 

set(#FilePathForSave, "{$special folder("Application Data")}/ReferredUserList.txt", "Global")

save to file(#FilePathForSave, #EncryptedUserIDText)

plugin command("FTPCommands.dll", "connect to ftp server", "FTP", "ftp.domainname.com", 21, "username@domainname.com", "***password***", "/wp-content/uploads/2015/04") {

    plugin command("FTPCommands.dll", "ftp upload file", #FilePathForSave, "/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/ReferredUserList.txt")

}

I know this thread is an antique, but you know, I have got 2 new computers since having this issue, and it never did work, and still doesn't on my new computers either. I cant quite understand how ANYONE is getting this to work, or why this would be so difficult... I can get to it just fine with filezilla, but ubot is a no-go even after all these years!

Hey I know this is from forever ago, and your problem was forever before that, but I'm dealing with the same error. Did you ever get it resolved?

Thanks!

 

I'm able to connect to my FTP server through ftp.exe, but ubot gives me that instant error.

Same for me ! Any news please? - I've allowed both ubotstudio and the compiled app access through windows firewall, no difference.
