  Keep getting error when I am trying to load files.
  Fetch could not create the folder because the FTP server sent an unexpected response. Check the Fetch Transcript window for more information. Server responded: "Create directory operation failed."

  Hi,

  I would show that transcript to the FTP server administrator, specifically the lines:

  MKD CORPORATE
  550 Create directory operation failed.

  They might need to check the FTP server logs to figure out why that command is failing.

  Thanks,
