Dreamweaver CS3 ftp won't connect

Very unusual ftp problem: Server is MS IIS. I have multiple
Dreamweaver sites defined for this server. Been using them for
years. All sites connect fine except one. The one initially worked.
For the one problem site, clicking the Test button in Remote Info
tab connects just fine. Clicking the Connect button in Files will
time out every time. Using WSFTP to the same site and folder works
just fine. The only difference between this site and the ones that
work is the folder name. They even share the same parent folder.
ftp connection parameters are the same. How can this be?

I solved it myself. It turned out to be a corrupt site
definition in Dreamweaver. By deleting the site, then recreating
it, everything works as it should.

Dreamweaver cs3 FTP Fault - Not connecting anymore

Hi,
I hope someone may know the cause of this wierd problem
My dreamweaver cs3 has just stopped connecting to server for
any of my sites
(i got over 100 sites and tried quite a few).
My other ftp program external to cwcs3 is fine and continues
to work. This
using the same connection settings as dwcs3 site profiles.
Nothing has
changed on my dwcs3 profiles but yestarday I had the daylight
saving problem
(and last year) where i had to delete the cache file as per
adobe tech doc.
DW no longer crashing but i think this ftp not connecting is
only since
yesterday.
I have also installed the various windows updates that came
out recently.
The other machines in the office continue to work fine. All
machines import
the same saved profiles, but if i remove the site profile and
reimport it
still dosent connect, but repeating this on another machine
works without a
problem.
All machines in this floor have Vista Business/ CS3 web suite
connecting to
a windows 2003 standard ed server running iis and
iis/microsoft ftp server.
Same result with windows firewall disabled. Only other
security app is NOD
anti-virus, again all machines are the same.
All i get is an error telling me to try passive etc, but i
know this isnt
the fault as the other machines with the same settings are
fine..
here is a copy of the ftp log after trying to connect,
selecting a file, and
selecting put.

If i was that anal about cpu overhead, would i be using
dreamweavers built
in ftp with its feature 100%cpu usage. Even on my core 2
extreme 9000 cpu!!
Thanks for the links, but everything in them has been ruled
out. The issue
is clearly not a setting within dw. Its some sort of windows
firewall
corruption
Even running wf.msc (advanced win firewall config) provides
no clues

Dreamweaver ftp won't connect to host for one one site

HI,
have spent over 3 hours on this, and double checked
everything, even with ISP to make sure my host address is correct.
I can connect to the host address via other programs and ftp
I have the same settings in dreamweaver, but it won't
connect.
I can connect to other sites with this same dreamweaver, and
can create NEW connections too, but not to this one site that I can
connect to with everything else, but dreamweaver.
The is dreamweaver MX,
Can anyone help?

Adobe provides a test FTP server for these purposes. You can read about it here -
http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/troubleshoot-ftp-issues-dreamweaver-cs5.html#main_Ve rify_FTP_access
Try setting up a connection to that server and see if you can connect.

Dreamweaver CS3 FTP Error: Cannot make connection to host

I have Windows Vista with a new purchase of Adobe Dreamweaver
CS3 Web Premium. I am a regular Dreamweaver user since version 2.
But this FTP situation still baffles me.
1. I have set up all my FTP parameters as usual and have
tried to use "Passive FTP" and the "Secure FTP" settings, but to no
avail
2. I tried to FTP via explorer and do have access to my
hosting service. The problem lies related to Dreamweaver itself.
3. I tried to check to see if my Windows Firewall would
affect it, but it is included in the firewall exception list.
I checked the other forum listings related to this problem,
and one of them mentions about the 60 second issue. I also checked
my site preferences and it is set to 60.
I don't want to use Cute FTP. I've been using Dreamweaver for
all these years and found it annoying to get another program just
for this. I am hoping to resolve this issue here on the forums so
that other Dreamweaver CS3 users can use FTP to upload their
site.

CS3 FTP will not connect!

I am quite furious with Adobe. I paid the $450 to upgrade
from 8 to the Creative Suite 3 Web Standard package and installed
it last night. The main reason for the purchase was for Dreamweaver
CS3. I manage about 10 sites for clients and wanted to upgrade from
Studio 8 to CS3.
The installation went smoothly, no glitches... I fired up
Dreamweaver and began trying to connect to all of my sites.
Dreamweaver could only connect to three of my 10 sites. All other
sites gave me the standard login in inocorrect or wrong password
notice.
I then checked to make sure the firewall settings were
correct and the timeout set at something greater than 2 seconds. No
luck.. the program still will not connect to my sites.
I do a search on Google and discover that this appears to be
a well known issue with Dreamweaver CS3 but I can't find any real
answers as to how to fix the problem. One would think that Adobe
would address this on their own site but I can't seem to find a fix
there either.
I am using Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 3 installed. My
old version of Dreameweaver (8) still functions and can connect to
all sites.
I find this absolutly maddening that such a well known issue
has not been corrected by Adobe. They have posted nothing about a
fix or workaround. They continue to sell a product that obviously
has issues.. one of the most important issues.. being able to FTP
from the program.. one of the features I have loved about all
previous versions of Dreamweaver.. now seemingly rendered
useless... but I still pay a premium to upgrade to a program that
does not work.
Mad, you bet! Macromedia did not have these issues.. and just
try to get tech support to help you at Adobe.. I end up in
Bangalor, wait forever and then "Mike" puts me on hold afterwhich I
get disconnected and a dialtone.
Has anyone been able to solve the FTP probelm with DW CS3? Is
there documentation somewhere? Is there a webpage that clearly
outlines what to do to fix this issue? I'm out $450 here and mad as
hell!

I finally got CS3 working by removing all the sites currently
definded from the program then recreating them all over again...
That's not the way this should work and I still can't believe Adobe
has not addressed the problem in some manner. I searched and
searched for info on this issue and found nothing but posts
regarding firewall issues and 2 second timeouts.. none of which
would have solved my problem.
Adobe's switch to outsourced "help" is a further irritant.
Several times I have called support and ended up being disconnected
when the support guy could not "fix" the problem.
I bought a CS3 updgrade for Dreamweaver months ago but it
would not install because I had the Studio 8 product. I was
informed that I had to buy the CS3 Suite to upgrade Dreamweaver. So
I was out the money for the store bought boxed upgrade.. Adobe told
me to submit a LOD "Letter of Destruction" along with proof of
purchase and they would refund the money... that was over six
months ago and I have yet to see a dime. Every time I call about it
I end up talking to "Mike" in India and the connection gets
dropped.
Needless to say I am very dissappointed with Adobe these
days... on a number of levels.

Dreamweaver CS3 FTP problem

Hi,
I am unable to connect to my remote server using my new copy
of Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
When I test the FTP connection I get an error message
I can connect without problems to my remote server using
Microsoft Frontpage and the exact same FTP address, login, and
password - so it is not the server which is at fault
Things I have tried without success
My hosting company told me to either leave the host directory
box blank or put a / in it. Neither of these options work
I have tried retyping my login details carefully.
I have tried checking the ‘use passive FTP’ box
I have tried putting a colon and the port number after the
FTP address
I have tried writing the FTP address with and without the
ftp:// symbol
I have tried setting the FTP time out preferences at 60secs,
30 secs, 120 secs, 10 secs, and 5 secs
I am wondering what else to try, and how I can check whether
or not the software is being blocked by a firewall (in Norton for
example - my windows firewall is switched off) as I do remember
getting a message about this during the install. Or would it be a
good idea to uninstall and reinstall the software?
I would be most grateful for any further information or
advice.
Many thanks
Pippa

> When I test the FTP connection I get an error message
What is the error message?
Here's my experience.
1. A firewall (any firewall, including but not restricted to
SP2) may be
blocking your attempts. It's best to completely disable them
while you are
troubleshooting this.
2. The FTP host field should usually always be filled in like
this -
''www.domain.com'' (without the quotes) and with NO leading
protocol (e.g.,
http:// or ftp://) (of course, you can always
use the IP address, too).
3. Enabling Passive FTP (usually the default for 3rd party
FTP programs) in
your Remote site definition can often be the gating factor in
a balky FTP
connection.
Make sure you use those guidelines and usually your
connection problem will
be solved.
By the way, if you find that #1 allows the connection to
proceed, then you
have to figure out what it is about your firewall that is
blocking
transmissions. CS3 allows you to fine tune firewall support
via the
Remote site definition, but you may also need to do a very
simple thing of
permitting CS3 to make outgoing connections in the Firewall
configuration.

Sounds as though you're trying to install Dreamweaver CS3 on
Mac OS X
10.3 or earlier. CS3 requires OS X 10.4 as a minimum. It
won't install
on earlier versions.

Ftp won't connect

GREetings All,
I am having trouble with dreamweaver's ftp setup. I have allowed through the firewall and changed username an password but when I test it it still doesn't connect it says local firewall blocked ftp data.
How do I fix this problem?

Enable passive FTP and try again, please.

DreamWeaver CS3 FTP suddenly stops working

About a week ago DreamWeaver's FTP stopped working, for any
of the 25 plus sites I have set up in it. I control the server I am
trying to FTP to, so I know none of the passwords or anything else
has changed. All of the sites have the same error when trying to
connect, which is:
"An FTP error occurred - cannot open remote folder
/public_html/. Access denied. The file may not exist, or there
could be a permission problem."
Well the folder does exist, as nothing has changed. I am able
to FTP fine with other FTP apps including CuteFTP, so I know this
is a DreamWeaver specific problem. I tried reinstalling / repairing
DreamWeaver from disc to no avail.
Thanks for any help.....

I'd like to chime in too if I may. Dreamweaver is a very
reliable software client but can anyone really backtrack to the
point where ftp puts GUI to shame? Forgive me but I'm stuck using
Dreamweaver as my sole island of hope for all client/ server
transactions.. I'm not even interested in using one of those 'mini'
clients who's functionality do make your head spin! I'm somewhat of
a freestyle learner so maybe that explains why I've never seen the
host-server designated "public" folder renamed as "public_html"???
I don't even think my webhost would let me rename that folder as
such, I hope that helps!
Thanks,
Nate

Dreamweaver CS3 crashing on dns connection test

Whenever I'm setting up a DSN connection in CS3 the program
crashes every time I try to access it via either "Test" or be
expanding the tables sub-tree. I've tried both system dsn and
custom connection string.
I've reinstalled both dreamweaver and the .NET framework and
I'm still getting the same error. The specific error is always
"AppName: dreamweaver.exe AppVer: 9.0.0.3453 ModName:
msvcr80.dll
ModVer: 8.0.50727.363 Offset: 00014a51"
So it would appear to be an issue with msvcr80.dll
conflicting with Dreamweaver. Any suggestions on how to solve?
I have formatted the main hard drive and re-installed windows
and I'm still getting this problem. Any suggestions? I tried
contact the adobe support but have yet to hear anything back

I've reinstalled both dreamweaver and the .NET framework and
I'm still getting the same error. The specific error is always

Dreamweaver CS3 FTP Error

Dreamweaver CS on Vista Pro, everything has worked fine for
the last 5 months I have been able to ftp to all my sites. Then
last week I started getting the following when I tried to connect
to my sites:
quote:
Operation timed out...canceled...An FTP error occurred -
cannot make connection to host. No response from the server. This
may be due to one or more of the following reasons:
- Accessing the server requires firewall settings that aren't
properly set. Please verify that the firewall settings in the Site
category of the Preferences dialog box are properly set, and that
the Use Firewall option in the Site definition dialog box is
selected.
- The server may be accepting only passive mode or only
active mode. Toggling the "Use Passive FTP" checkbox may help you
establish a connection.
I'VE TRIED
THIS A FEW TIMES
- If you are connecting to an IPv6 enabled server, please
select "Use IPv6 transfer mode" checkbox in the Advanced site
definition dialog. THIS IS NOT THE CASE AS CONFIRMED BY THE HOST.
- Your local firewall may be blocking the incoming FTP data.
Please disable it to see if it makes a difference. THIS HAS BEEN
TESTED A FEW TIME WITH NO LUCK.
- It is possible your FTP may be using a non-standard FTP
port (21). If you need to specify a non-standard port, enter the
port number after host name separated by a colon":". THIS IS NOT
THE CASE AS CONFIRMED BY THE HOST.
I have no problem connecting using CuteFTP and using the
exact same settings as used in Dreamweaver. Also weird is the fact
I would connect to a site, and then come back latter that day and
could no longer reconnect. It was like I was able to only connect
one time with site after this started happening. Now No sites are
able to be accessed through Dreamweaver FTP.
Anyone else experiencing this and/or have a solution?

My Mac laptop which I had been using perfectly fine for over a year with connecting via FTP in Dreamweaver headed off to the shop last week for an unrelated power issue. In its absence, I purchased a Mac Mini to continue with my design work. I used the migration assitant to replicate the exact settings of my laptop on my new desktop from a backup of the laptop. The fixed laptop was returned to me yesterday.
Issue
I went to upload some site changes I had made from my laptop and up pops the FTP error that there is no respnse from server (http://img.skitch.com/20090810-8muhscacixyxkuidwkc2yiimba.jpg). I tried again with the same result and just thought perhaps that sites server was down or similar. I moved on to another site and I get the same error, and with the third site, I decided it was an obvious pattern. I then decide to try uploading the files with the desktop that I had purchased, and it uploads without a hitch.
So any thoughts on why things would work as usual for the new desktop, but never connect (the FTP log is empty) on the laptop sitting right next to it?
Thanks for your help!

Thanks Samantha for posting back a soution - I'm sure it will be helpful to others in the future :-)

FTP won't connect Get multiple daemons

I had the problem where no one could connect with any password in FTP. I replaced the /Library/FTPServer/Configuration/ftpaccess file and fixed the bad password problem.
For a few minutes I could connect. Now I cannot. When I try to connect I get:
++++
ftp server1
Connected to server1.<ourDomain>.com.
(Here long wait)
421 Service not available, remote server timed out. Connection closed
+++++
On the server itself I find instances of the daemon where I had tried to connect before:
++++++
admin$ ps -ax | grep xftp
411 ?? R 2:07.21 xftpd -a
440 ?? R 1:01.14 xftpd -a
441 ?? R 1:00.91 xftpd -a
463 ?? R 0:50.93 xftpd -a

494 ?? R 0:08.76 xftpd -a
495 ?? R 0:08.65 xftpd -a
510 p2 U+ 0:00.00 grep xftp
Any help would be appreciated.

In addition to this, When ever I try to connect, I start an Xftp daemon that EATS cpu time.
The SAMPLE data is below.
Thanks

FTP Won't connect. Any ideas?

I have a client that is trying to switch from FrontPage to Adobe Muse. However they can not get the FTP to work. I downloaded Muse and tired it also and I can't get it to work either. This is the message the FTP screen gives me.
However when I log into the server it appears the connection username password etc all work fine. As you can see here by the FTP server interface
So my question is why can't Muse seem to open a data connection when the username and password are fine? Also I tried the same username and password and host info in FileZilla client and of course it works fine.

Hi,
Do you support EPSV? When you tried FileZilla client, was it using EPSV?
Are there any server-side logs?
Thanks,
Abhishek
