Walter1 8 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 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... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HelloInsomnia 1103 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I just connected to my HG account without issues: Connection Type: FTPServer. ftp.yourdomain.comPort: 21 For remote path try this (no quotes): public_html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Walter1 8 Posted August 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 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... Walter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andymurray 2 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Hi Walter, I had some problems with the FTP command, but after talking with supportI 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") {} Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dankass 52 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 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.http://i59.tinypic.com/9qa1r7.jpg 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gavind 6 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Here's one from HG, perhaps on of these might help. FTP Troubleshooting TipsIf 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) firewallTry connecting with Secure FTPIf your FTP program has a "Passive Mode," try toggling it off and on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
arunner26 51 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 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")} Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dankass 52 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
