FTP help on PS3

[modey]

Hope someone can help me with this as it's driving me up the wall

I'm trying to connect to the ps3 with filezilla, but it sometimes connects intemittently and then fails to find the directory.

This is the latest log when i try to connect:

disable PSV (passive) it's in your preferences in filezilla somewhere

i've already tried that, set it to active.

Just tried again, all connected, i clicked on the devhddo folder and it disconnected

try a different ftp program and see if you have the same problems.

[modey]

i've also tried core ftp and it's still the same

Took me 3hrs to sort mine out and all it took was a simple restart of windows also you could try closing any firewall software you have running

[modey]

i've tried rebooting laptop, router, ps3, reinstalling the ftp onto the ps3, tried port forwarding.

I can now get it to connect everytime, but every time i try to open a sub directory in the ps3 files i get "Failed to retrieve directory listing"

I know you've tried several apps, but I'll still throw out one more to give a shot: FlashFXP.

that one is working so far! now what format does the game folder have to be in to put it in the gamez folder, can i name it anything?

[Muffy]

make sure uppercase GAMES/gamefolder/

gamefolder can be called whatever you like
