tricky77puzzle 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2008 I'm using FileZilla right now, and trying to upload a second copy of WordPress onto the account to use as a comic repository.For some reason, a lot of the files are missing, and when I look into the folders, I see that a lot of the files have a filelength of 0.What gives?Could someone please help me out?

jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted March 3, 2008 Not sure what went wrong, but one solution might be to create a zip file and upload that. The Cpanel will allow for unzipping the single file on the server rather than needing to upload a bunch of single fies. That is the method I would use. Another hin might be to install the Firefox Extension FireFTP. I use it for quick FTP jobs and it has worked flawlessly for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tricky77puzzle 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2008 The problem is prevailing with files uploaded one-by-one. Maybe it's a problem with Filezilla? Or is it with the server? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
etycto 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2008 i do this all the time with wordpress using filezilla and it always work perfectly are you following the instructions on the wordpress site cause you might be doing something wrong. also try uploading them all at once instead of one-by-one that's what i always do and it always works perfectly.

tricky77puzzle 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2008 Check your read/write permsions make sure you have at least 755Maybe Filezila is upload in binary when is should be in ascii mode Or perhaps it needs to fallback on Active mode. I did that and now everything works fine. It shouldn't have to do that, though.It's not a problem with binary format. Some PHP files make it, but others don't. It's only a random few files that have zero file-length. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
