Thread: Dreamweaver publishing problems

I'm using Dreamweaver 8 and trying to publish using ftp. Every time i test the setting it gives me "An FTP error occured - cannot make connection to host. The remote host cannot be found." This is what I use

What is the hostname or FTP address of your Web server?
I tried http://ftp.cateredvibes.com, http://www.ftp.cateredvibes.com, ftp.cateredvibes.com, http://74.52.61.194, and http://www.cateredvibes.com.

What folder on the server do you want to store your files in?
public_html

What is your FTP login?
xxxxxxxx

What is your FTP password?
xxxxxxxx

I get the above reply every time. What am I doing wrong?

Click the below to download smart ftp

www.smartftp.com

The only reason you will be getting errors is beacause you are using the wrong...

username
password

or

IP

None of the above... the reason it isn't connecting is because you don't need to type in http or ftp.

Just type in for the host

yoursite.com

and then the username and password

Don't include http:// or ftp:// and if its a subdomain on the site that should only have to be added if your connecting to a windows server
