Dropped connection (4 posts)

    I am trying to connect to a site that I have not connected to before and I get the following message:

    "An FTP connection to "zydecoshoes.com" could not be opened because the FTP server dropped the connection. Try again, or contact the server administrator to verify that the server is running."

    I am able to connect to other sites so it does not appear to be my internet connection. The site is hosted through godaddy. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you,
    Robyn

    Could you choose "Fetch Transcript" from the Window menu and post the contents of that window after you see that error message? The transcript may have clues to the problem you're seeing.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    It looks like the server is responding right up to the point where Fetch sends it your password, and then it drops the connection. I would contact GoDaddy and confirm or reset your password.

    Thanks,
