knight10071 Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I'm currently attempting to upload a website. I can connect to the FTP server, but when I attempt to upload, most of the files fail due to Timeout. I thought this was due to my firewall, so I disabled it and I tried to upload, but I still had the same problem.I have an F-Secure firewall and other protection. I just disabled the firewall and left the other features on. Googling didn't give me an answer to what might be wrong, so I hope you guys could tell me what could be the problem, as I haven't got a clue myself.

Perry Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 This will most likely be a server problem, try contacting your host provider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egbert_o_foo Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Hello, In addition to the possibility of a "server problem", another distinct possibility exists. Attempt to have your client set the connection to "Passive" mode. In the Windows CMD version, simple issue the command "passive" before "Put" or "Mput" or whatever. It sounds like you're using a graphical tool, so you'll probably have to look for "Passive" in one of the drop-down menus. Here's a pretty good, albeit kinda technical, explanation: http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html Good luck!
