Ftp isn't working properly

Post by Mikesdav »

I have filezilla ftp server running on my vds and When I try to copy something over to my server using ftp it spits an error out and just doesn't work. but it does let me copy stuff from my server to my computer.

Code: Select all

Status:	Starting upload of E:\Srcds local server\gmod\orangebox\SRCDS Guardian 3.bat
Command:	PORT 192,168,1,47,218,204
Response:	200 Port command successful
Command:	STOR SRCDS Guardian 3.bat
Response:	550 Permission denied
Error:	Critical file transfer error
Status:	Disconnected from server
I do have permission to create files in the directory and its not overwriting any files.

That usually means your account doesn't have access to the ftp folder to upload/delete files.

SSH this:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/www/xxxxxxxxxx
chown -R xxx.xxxx directoryofvdspath/public_html
Replace the X's with the correct path and the second line of xxx's replace with your username
