Cannot connect to FTP using FileZilla - "Connection Timed Out"


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey again guys!

 

I use FileZilla to upload files for my website.

Well I used to anyway!

 

Now, when I try to connect, it pauses on "Command: MLSD", then gives me the following errors: "Connection timed out", "Failed to retrieve directory listings".

I can still access and upload my site files through the File Manager on cPanel.

 

These are my current settings:

Host: ftp.jalpro.heliohost.org

Port: empty (I tried 21, but that didn't work)

Protocol: FTP

Encryption: Use explicit FTP over TLS if available

User: jalpro

 

This is the output when I try to connect:

"Encryption: Only use plain FTP (insecure)" worked!!

I swear I tried that before!!

Oh well, at least it works now!

Thanks :D

 

Btw, your "Wondering where to sign up" link returns a "404 Not Found" error.

Yes, it's because the account queued page is showing on all accounts.

Is there an estimated date in which Johnny will be up and running?

A couple of months. :(

 

Sorry about this. We're trying our best to fix this as fast as we can. ;)

Your welcome. :)

 

We've tried to do as much as we can, but none of the scripts we have tried have worked. We are waiting on djbob now. ;)
