Dreamweaver CC FTP Not Working

  • October 29, 2017

I am unable to Put files in Dreamweaver CC (Ver 18, Build 10136).

I have deleted my original site (which did not Put either) and created a new site, and tested the connection in DW. It connects OK.

I have cleared my browser cache.

I have rebooted.

I have uninstalled DW CC from the Creative Cloud desktop app, and re-installed it. Then rebooted again.

I can upload the selected file with FileZilla, and FTP works.

I can edit the file in DW CC, adding an obvious change. Save it, then Put it. The change does not show in my browser. But if I use FileZilla, the change shows.

DW does not offer any error message. The Put simply is not working.

Can anyone help?

If you do not get an error message, it means that there was no error and the file was successfully uploaded. The problem is where was it uploaded to?

Go to the Files panel, choose Remote server and have a look at where the file was uploaded to. If it is not there, maybe you chose to to upload it to the Testing server.

That was the problem. I was uploading to the root directory, instead of the directory where my web site is configured to read from. Yet another senior moment, of which I am having way too many here lately.

Side note: Next problem is to get my Project VII Drop Menu Magic extension to work with DW CC.

Wait till you get to where I am, it has become a way of life.

The best way to install the extension is to use PVII Extension Manager for Adobe Creative Cloud or get in touch with PVII.

When talking to them, please make them aware of the horrible typo on their page (ALsp senior moment Mr Sparber?).
