I contacted hostgator and the rep told me that I can resolve it manually but I have no clue on how to do manual transfer of failed ftp files. I was able to get it to work after going through the resource you recommended but noticed some FAILED FILES at the end of the transfer. When setting up FileZilla, did you specify a folder to upload to, such as /public_html/ ? My other question would still be whether or not you are uploading to the right place. I just Googled “filezilla directory listing failed” and there were lots of discussions and solutions to this online (as there often are).Īn article on various important things and issues with FileZilla: I have also double checked with hostgator and the rep is insisting that the he was able to login effectively with the same cpanel username/password I am using. I really appreciate the various alternatives you suggested,but I don’t have a clue on how to go about it. Please can you explain this more? Also how do I change FTP login as you suggested? I don’t know how to create FTP Accounts within cpanel. All else fails you can use the “File Manager” within cPanel (also found under files) to get the job done but I would suggest double checking with your host about FTP access if you don’t have any of the above options. Theres also “WebDisk” you could use through Windows Explorer (as it appears your running vista based on your screenshot). Though I don’t know what all host-gator offers with their cPanel You should have an option of creating “FTP Accounts” within cPanel (under “Files” category") which you could grant to any level of access to your domain (root, addon, ect.) or changing the FTP login altogether.
