The same FTP account, two domains. One connection OK second not

Wappler General Bugs
#1

I used Filezilla to upload files to my server and now two test websites are live.
Now while creating targets and testing connection I only get a successful message for one.

I’ve copied here two data output and posted them side by side for easier comparison.
Any thoughts ?

#2

Well just as the message says:

Connection To Web Server Failed!
Can not find the uploaded files!
Probably wrong path in Web Server URL

So you have the Remove URL different, and it is not the same as the one you given as FTP root.

#3

Remote Directory is copied from Filezilla.
It’s the same directory to which I uploaded the photo which can be seen at arikenko.com
Also in the log posted below looks like Wappler manages to log in and even “CWD command successful”

So probably there’s a bug in Connection Tester.

#4

Can you share a screenshot of your Project settings?

You might be missing the remote directory value, which is why even though the log says its connecting to FTP, but failing at the end.

#5

The remote directory is fine. Only when I do a Test Connection via Project Setting I get a Failed result. But when I do a Check form the bottom menu in designer I get back a Test completed successfully which is the truth as it works.
So this topic is closed and will move it to bugs section.

#6

I don’t know what ‘Check’ from bottom menu actually checks. But I too have seen this behaviour where test connection fails but Publish option works.
And the issue in my case was incorrect project settings - not that there was a bug.

One more way you can check this is by adding new server action and db connection. With your publish location set to the one which fails, you should not be able to add.
If adding the action & connection are working, then there might be a bug in project settings connection test.
