Connecting to an FTP server
You connect to an FTP server in order to upload or download a site or perform any file transfer operation. Before you can connect to an FTP server for the first time, you must set up access to it. (See Setting up FTP access.) GoLive lets you store access to more than one FTP server.
To connect to an FTP server from the FTP tab:
- Open a site.
- Click the FTP Server Connect/Disconnect button
on the toolbar, or choose Site > FTP Server > Connect.
Note: The site window automatically opens the FTP tab once you connect to an FTP Server.
To connect to an FTP server from the FTP browser:
- Choose File > FTP Browser.
- Do one of the following:
- Click Connect to connect to the current server.
- Choose a new server from the Server menu, and click Connect.
To change the current server for FTP connections:
- With the site window active, use the context menu to choose FTP Server, then choose a server.
When you're transferring files, you might receive an FTP reply code. The reply code indicates the state of the server you're connecting to. A list of the FTP reply codes and their meanings is available in the support knowledge base at Adobe Online (http://www.adobe.com). You can also consult the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web site at http://www.w3.org.
