I can use FileZilla to connect to an FTP site with a certain Username
and Password. However, when I try to use code below to connect to the
site, it fails with error stating:
"The remote server returned an error: (550) File unavailable (e.g.,
file not found, no access)."
Now, assuming that the url does exist, and the Username and Password
are correct, what else could cause the problem? How do I fix this?
Should it be as simple as the code below?
NOTE: The first time I connected via FileZilla, a large dialog box
came up and I had to confirm something (i.e. something that I can't
remember, now). However, I checked off some box in FileZilla so that
I wouldn't see the large dialog box again.
