Hi,

I am trying to set the ftp settings in auction wizard. These are the things it asks for and the values I have in them:

FTP Host Name: ftp02.powweb.com
FTP Port : 21 <---this is the default they had set
Username: (my username)
Password: (my password)
Remote Directory: /htdocs
Http Address: http://tresrhnter.com/catalog/


It then tests the ftp connection and says "The Http Address field does not point to the same location as the FTP settings. Check the Remote Directory and Http Address Fields." Does anyone see what I have in there wrong?

TIA,

Melinda

I think your home directory points to /htdocs, so shouldn't your
http://tresrhnter.com/catalog/ point to /htdocs/catalog/?
