pcorf Posted August 1, 2008 I've been wanting to upload a bugfixed version of Technician's Base but in the last week I've been having massive problems trying to connect to the archives using WS_FTP. I do not have a broadband connection, maybe thats why because broadband is very expensive where I live, much more expensive than the US and A. Looks like I won't be releasing Whispers of Satan. It keeps quitting on me no matter what I do. Perhaps the settings have changed yet again? WINSOCK.DLL: WinSock 2.0 WS_FTP95 LE 4.01 96.05.22, Copyright © 1992-1996 Ipswitch, Inc.

myk Posted August 1, 2008 Yeah, we've gotten other reports of issues. I mailed the archive admin about the problem (apparently the expired server is being too conservative on connections). You could upload it to Rapidshare or the like a to give someone with a more powerful connection the chance to upload it for you, for now. 0 Share this post Link to post

GreyGhost Posted August 1, 2008 Try increasing the Connect Timeout to someting like 60 seconds - it worked for me with FileZilla. 0 Share this post Link to post

GreyGhost Posted August 1, 2008 If you don't like FileZilla - try My Internet Files. It's freeware but has to be registered and I've used it for a few years with my only complaint being no support for download resumption. 0 Share this post Link to post

Why not just leave the upload in the transfer queue, then officially disconnect, then process the queue. It'll then use your only connection to the FTP with the file being sent. Don't forget the text file! 0 Share this post Link to post
