FTP problem in GoLive (crazy but still using it)

now GoLive can no longer connect to the FTP Server.

==============

This isn't surprising, given GoLive's obsolete status.

Keep using free FileZilla to transfer files. It's updated regularly with latest file transfer protocols & security patches to ensure it conforms with modern web hosting requirements.

GoLive is deadware, abandoned by Adobe in 2006.  Nobody should be using obsolete web software in 2024-2025.  The web has changed too much.

These code editors are low to no-cost alternatives.

Hope that helps.

This is a message with a slim problem of being solved. I have NOT yet ported my website to DreamWeaver!

BUT.. I recently had to change the password on my FTP account, and now GoLive can no longer connect to the FTP Server.

It says "internal error". I have tried all variations of FTP, SFTP, PASSIVE etc..

Other Ftp apps like WinSCP and Filezilla can connect with the same user and password details.

ANYONE have any suggestions for me (other than updating to DreamWeaver)

There are no additional changes. FTP technology has just changed over time and the client will no longer work. As far as having Wordpress, your host likely has a PHP/MySQL setup which would allow you to host Wordpress or similar PHP technologies. Or you could always look into other hosted solutions such as Wix/Webflow/etc. which may be worth considering as an alternative.

and I guess what I am wondering, is if there are any settings in GoLive that are NOT in the "Site / Setting / Publish Server" area that may affect how an FTP connects!

my provider has "Wordpress".

I may do that, but I do have 250+ pages. it will take a while!

and in the mean time, I can use WinSCP for my FTP, but have to remember which folder to sync!

GoLive is even older than DW and there is no guarantee that DW would be able to connect either as it has been in minimal maintenance for some time only receiving critical updates. I would recommend at this point to consider looking for an alternative editor to meet the requirements of your workflow.
