iphonogasm Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 ok so i recently had everything on IIS working perfectly, and i dont know what changed. My website www.guitaronline.co.nz is working, all seems fine there, all that is wrong is the FTP. When i go to Add FTP Publishing, i set it up with access for users "Administartor" and allow SSL IP address all unassigned on port 21. The ftp directory is pointing to the wwwroot, as i want to be able to edit website file over FTP. All this was working before, and now the connection just times out. When connecting to the FTP (in map driver in My Computer) it promps for login, then enter Administrator and password, then the connection just times out! any ideas? also the site name of the connection has a question markon it when i add FTP publishing?? this has really stumped me? how can i remove the IIS role and install to factory defaults?? when i reinstall it it loads all the old files and settings? PS. ive been having some issues with snap in lately, could this be related? Thanks Quote
ICTCity Posted July 10, 2011 Posted July 10, 2011 First try to login using username: administrator@yourdomain.whatever If it fails, take a look at the event log because there's something wrong with permissions or something broken with FTP (iis) itself.

iphonogasm Posted July 11, 2011 Author Posted July 11, 2011 nope that doesnt work either, when i add ftp publishing heres what i get, a little question mark appears on my site as if something is not right [ATTACH]110.IPB[/ATTACH] cheers Quote
ICTCity Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 The problem seems to be the binding. When you have FTP and HTTP together you may have a question mark but this doesn't mean there's an error. Probably your server doesn't know how to authenticate you. I'm not sure, but I *THINK* that FTP cannot exist with anonymous authentication of HTTP.

iphonogasm Posted July 11, 2011 Author Posted July 11, 2011 but even if i create a whole new FTP site, cant connect to it, just tried disabling anonymous auth, still no go cheers Quote
ICTCity Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 try to completely remove IIS: Step 1: Remove IIS To remove IIS, follow these steps: In Control Panel, double-click Add or Remove Programs. Click Add/Remove Windows Components. Click Application Server, and then click Details. Click Internet Information Services (IIS), and then click Details. Click to clear the check boxes for all subcomponents except Common Files, click OK two times, and then click Next. Follow the instructions to complete the process.

iphonogasm Posted July 12, 2011 Author Posted July 12, 2011 Ah this is a bit of a major as i have just installed mysql, php5 and phpmyadmin It worked before its bringing up a connection timeout Quote
ICTCity Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 there's something wrong with bindings or routing, but actually I can't figure out what is the exact problem.

iphonogasm Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 i still cant get this working, any more ideas? its really annoying Quote
FPCH Admin AWS Posted July 24, 2011 FPCH Admin Posted July 24, 2011 How did you setup ftp? You have to use IIS 6 manager to manage FTP sites. Install it using server manager and then try to reconfig the ftp site. Quote Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
iphonogasm Posted July 25, 2011 Author Posted July 25, 2011 Thats exactly what i did. Im using iis to manage ftp sits. Right click on a site and choose "add ftp publishing" But whenever i try connect, it prompts me for my username and password and the connection times Thanks Quote
iphonogasm Posted October 4, 2011 Author Posted October 4, 2011 so i still have this problem appears to be authentication, ive tried everyhthing!! heres the error im getting. Ive tried checking the logs but they tell me nothing apart from the fact that there was a login attempt. [ATTACH]171.IPB[/ATTACH] Thanks Quote
ICTCity Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Try to disable the passive mode... it looks like there's a firewall which is blocking you.

iphonogasm Posted October 4, 2011 Author Posted October 4, 2011 if i disable passive its fine. But i want to host the server with passive mode, ive tried adding a exception in the firewall but still no luck thanks Quote
ICTCity Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Are you sure it is well configured? FTP server's port 21 from anywhere FTP server's port 21 to ports > 1023 FTP server's ports > 1023 from anywhere (Client initiates data connection to random port specified by server) FTP server's ports > 1023 to remote ports > 1023 (Server sends ACKs (and data) to client's data port) http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html Quote -------------------------------------------------------- Tu peux aussi crire en franais.

iphonogasm Posted October 13, 2011 Author Posted October 13, 2011 so im still stuck with this damn FTP thing. Out of everything, it seems to have been the hardest. I have checked all permissions over and over, but i get the following message. It logs me on fine as i can see myself logged on on active sessions, but wont display any folder content. Ive tried MSDOS and UNIX options heres what i get, EVERYTIME!! [ATTACH]175.IPB[/ATTACH] Thanks Quote
ICTCity Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 The message is still the same... Can you try the same thing from the command line? I'm sure your problem is with passive mode... so, try with command line and post back results. Quote -------------------------------------------------------- Tu peux aussi crire en franais.

iphonogasm Posted October 15, 2011 Author Posted October 15, 2011 yes i can access it without passive mode enabled, but what do i need to do in order to allow passive mode connection? ie, open ports in firewall for passive? enable forwarding on my router...ill have a quick search on it too. Thanks Quote
