Trying to troubleshoot the error we are getting when trying to copy a file from local files to the remote server in Dreamweaver CS6. See below for error message. Unsure what is causing this error. All other pages on the site does not have this problem.

Error Log:

This is usually caused when a file is uploaded to a directory that does not have the right permissions, like write and execute. To correct this, right click the directory and set the appropriate permissions

Thank you, I had suspected that this was the problem. I was working with a coworker’s connection, and couldn’t figure out why mine was working, and her connection wasn’t. Our set up are the same. It seems that our IT person didn’t set her permissions correctly.
