   I am trying to update a friend's site for him (change some text, add some photos) and so I set up an FTP (using FileZilla) into his hosting account. The files that I am trying to modify are .HTML files. I copied some of them over to a local folder on my computer, made one change to a file to test it out (index.html file) and then tried overwriting the old hosted file with the updated file. However, when I do that, I get this error:

   Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
   Response: 220 Microsoft FTP Service
   Command: USER lawyer
   Response: 331 Password required for lawyer.
   Command: PASS ********
   Response: 230 User lawyer logged in.
   Status: Connected
   Status: Starting upload of C:\Users\Marc\Documents\Warren\index.html
   Command: CWD /
   Response: 250 CWD command successful.
   Command: TYPE A
   Response: 200 Type set to A.
   Command: PASV
   Response: 227 Entering Passive Mode (74,39,248,241,19,140).
   Command: STOR index.html
   Response: 550 index.html: Access is denied.
   Error: Critical error

   Any idea how to fix this or what is wrong? I tried manually changing the permissions on the file and the entire folder to 755 and 777, but they keep reverting back to their original settings. I'm sure it is a permissions setting problem, but I don't know what to do to fix it.

   Thanks.

   The 550 error is a message from the server stating that the account you have currently logged in as does not have permission to perform the action you are attempting. You may be trying to upload to the wrong directory or trying to delete a file.

   This problem can also be caused by a firewall with a "no ftp write" permission set.

   [b]I would suggest you contact the Host Admin and see if they can help[/b]

   The answer is simple. Usually this message apear because the home disk space (quota limit) is reached. So, buy more space or delete some files.

    This is my error, does any one know how to delete files from filezilla? That is what i am using to transfer files over. All was working fine until a recent update from filezilla itself. I currently using filezilla ver. 3.5.0. Please help this is very critical for my business.

    Thanks, I had the same problem and I solved it by contacting my system admin who checked a box and gave the permission in options.

    I have the same problem, but I found a simple workaround that maybe work for you (in my case I only had to transfer and overwrite 3 files):

    First, I checked if the server lets me upload new files instead of overwriting them, as well as removing them. So I made copies of the files with other names (i.e. index-copy.html) and FileZilla allowed me to upload them. Then I deleted the original files and renamed the new ones to what they were supposed to be. That's all.

    I still need to contact my hosting providers, but at least I've already made the changes.

    HI,
    NO NEED CONFUSE GUYS ITS VERY VERY SIMPLE TO FIX.

    CHECK YOUR HOSTING ACCOUNT MAIL OR CONTROL PANNEL. CLICK CONTROL PANEL NEXT CLIK WEB SPACE THEN WEB SITE CONFIGRATION IN WEB SITE CONFIGRATION AND THEIR IS FTP CONFIGRATION, AND THEIR FTP LOGIN AND PASSWORD COPY THESE ONE BY ONE AND PAST WITH FTP USER NAME AND PASS WORD. THESE USER NAME PASSWORD IS VERY SENSITIVE SO, DO NOT TYPE. SOME TIMES HOST IS WORKING WITH FTP . YOURDOMAIN . COM OR ONLY THATS IT .

    I use FTP95 LE for a long time to upload about 20 accounts.

    Today FTP works on all but 1 account. Yesterday it worked for that account too.

    But today the popup says FTP has to close, sorry.

    Thanks, any ideas appreciated.
