goshala.php - error occurred - An FTP error occurred - cannot put goshala.php.  Access denied. 

The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. 

Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured.

File activity incomplete. 1 file(s) or folder(s) were not completed.

    OK, this is what I do with XAMPP (Windows version)...

    1. Place your site's local root inside the htdocs folder at C > xampp > htdocs > yoursitefolder
    2. Change Connect Using to "Local/Network

    3. Change "Server Folder" to the folder from step 1. It should look something like C:\xampp\htdocs\yoursitefolder

    4. Change the Web Url line to http ://localhost/yoursitefolder
    5. Save

    Those settings are found under Site > Manage Sites > click your site name > Edit > Servers > click your testing server > Edit > Basic...

    Unless your testing server is also a remote server (not your local machine), you won't use FTP settings. In fact, if you put your local root folder within the testing server to start off, you won't ever need to "upload" to the testing server at all.

    Under Site > Manage Sites > click your site > Edit > Servers > click your testing server > Edit change "Connect Using" to "Local /Network" instead of FTP.

    Which server software have you installed? That will determine the best location to store your local site root.
