 |
|
Greetings,
Recently I have noted a strange problem with my proftpd server. When I try to copy a file (for example: alpha.zip) to the /home/ftp folder the copy runs OK. However, when I try to access this same file in the browser I always get a 550 error message claiming that the file was not found.
What could be this? Previously the server was working all right and I never seen this error before in my server.
Thanks,
FBorges22

probably permissions; maybe read access isn't granted for "others". if you've already done to check it and it looks something like this | Code: | | -rw-r--r-- 1 jyaan jyaan 238438 2008-04-25 22:28 linux.png |
(the 3rd r from the left is read others) then i'm really not sure. that's the first thing i'd check though. |

It could also be your browser. I know that by default IE tries to log into FTP servers as an anonymous user.
You didn't mention what browser you were using or how you were getting the file.
What happens when you supply the username and password as well as the path of
the file you're trying to get in the browser ?

| Done... The problem was in the permissions. When I tried to use the chmod command the problem was solved sucessfully. |
