FTP Photos as... Problems
« on: August 09, 2007, 09:06:29 PM »
I am attempting to upload photos to my ftp server and I'm currently planning on dropping them into a dated folder within a directory folder.  It appears that I am able to connect to the server ok, but after trying to send the photo I receive this error message:  Server responded with transient error. 425 Unable to build data connection: Connection refused 


...any ideas?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi,

Do you have the "Passive" checkbox checked in the connection settings for that server?

Often, a 425 error is the result of being behind a firewall, and trying to FTP without being in Passive mode.

Bill
