FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a standard network protocol used to transfer files from one host to another host over a TCP-based network, such as the Internet (Wikipedia).

To use FTP you will need a special program - an FTP client, e.g. Filezilla, CuteFTP, FTP Commander etc. A browser cannot be used for this purpose. You can get additional info on these and other programs with the help of search engines (Google, Yahoo! etc.).


Learn how to setup FTP on uCoz and connect using a FTP client (guide by TeamNiBiC)


1. Sign in to your Control Panel (http://example.ucoz.com/admin)

2. At the main page, click on FTP details.



3. A window will appear, where you will find: host, login and password. If you haven't set the password yet, click the link and set one.



4. Save the information or at least keep the window open for you to log in using your favorite client.

I recommend Filezilla, which can be found by Google: Filezilla download.

5. Install and launch the client and sign in with your information.


For FTP programs to work properly you should check your network settings, the settings of firewall and antivirus software.

It is desirable to look into the error log. If the connection to the server was established, an error will be clearly described. If there is no connection then there is something wrong with the network or client settings. You may often need to use the passive mode, if your ISP sets limitations.


ATTENTION!


To establish an FTP connection you should observe the following conditions:

1. Your e-mail must be confirmed.
2. Your website must be at least 2 hours old (sometimes up to 24 hours) for FTP to work.
3. The installed security programs must not forbid FTP connection.
4. The passive mode must be selected.
5. Enter the data into your FTP client manually, and not by means of copy&paste.

Static .htm and .html files should be uploaded via File Manager. Static files are not very welcome at uCoz. If you need them more then 10 you have chosen a wrong hosting.


COMMON RULES FOR FTP AND FILE MANAGER


- The max size of a file to upload is 15 Mb.
- The max length of a file name with extension is 45 characters.
- One nesting level can have not more than 200 files and folders (max nesting depth is 4).
- A file name can contain only Latin letters, digits, an underscore and a hyphen.

I am using FileZilla and want to connect via ftp to my homepage.

I fill in the data i need, ftp username, password & host.

If i click on connect, i get this:

And it's also asking me a port, but i left the field blank, as i found none on the homepage.

Does anyone know what's wrong there?

cry I was uploading the bakup file through FTP with Filezilla, but the connection reset again and again, that means the progress returned to 0% for many tims
I think this sentence is very important :"Connection reset by peer". What does this mean? Is there a file size limitaion on Ucoz's sever? And How can I sove this?
I appreciate your help.

Pay attention to the maximal size of an uploaded file - 15 Mbytes.

By increasing disk space you'll get increase of the file size quota (Control Panel » $)

You can see FTP details in your Control Panel at the top. If you forgot password, you can change it in CP -> Security -> Change FTP password.

You may create index.html in every folder which requires links to download files from this folder.

Sorry, could someone help me with this:

Status: Starting upload of D:\Dj Brandy Jr\Dj Brandy Jr - Masturbation Motivation Mix III.mp3
Command: CWD /Music
Response: 250 OK. Current directory is /Music
Command: TYPE I
Response: 200 TYPE is now 8-bit binary
Command: PASV
Response: 227 Entering Passive Mode (208,100,61,2,109,145)
Command: STOR Dj Brandy Jr - Masturbation Motivation Mix III.mp3
Response: 553 Prohibited file name: Dj Brandy Jr - Masturbation Motivation Mix III.mp3
Error: Critical error

I have tried changing the name of the song (one of my m8s songs), and it still doesnt accept it. So its nothing to do with the file name as SUCH. However I need to use this ftp, as it takes too long through the website as you cant queue things.

Please help? =]

esp-css, how did you rename your file? Delete spaces and try again.

Rariyokuu, make sure you are using the correct username and password (FTP details are on the main page of your CP). Try to use passive mode, try to disable firewall and antivirus.

Thanks Ms. Sunny, actually i was surprised that my ftp is now working with same settings i used before. Maybe it got problems before 'coz i was attaching that other ucoz account as sub-domain to may main account.
