Uploadftp: Cannot open FTP Connection
« Thread started on: May 25th, 2014, 8:07pm »
Dear Readers:
Tried to fire up uploadftp.bbc program on Windows 7 pc, uploading one file to Windows 8.1 server, but possibly protocol has changed after over a year?! FTP port is still 21. Any ideas?
Thanks always, Yshua

Dear Richard:
Thanks for supplying info. Now am doing my part of the deal.... Am doing lots of research on problems connecting with ftp which will probably take about a week or two! But you gave me the push in the right direction. Will let you know what the solution was when it happens.

There is also the delightful problem that servers can vary. I use the uploadftp routines to automatically upload stuff and most of the time it works just fine - and then suddenly, for no reason that I can discover, it stops working. I resort to a commercial ftp program to upload the necessary files by hand, but after a day or so I can upload automatically again.
