Some problem with FTP & Joomla 1.5

[pasha4ur]

Hello!

Sorry for my poor English.

I have some problems with my account. When I install Joomla 1.5 I couldn't activate FTP. I got a message "Your settings are incorrect". When I try to activate FTP in a control panel of Joomla 1.5 I always get "JFTP::connect: Could not connect to host "ftp.pasha4ur.mxhoste.com" on port 21"

Through Filezilla my friend can work with my settings

One times I got

"JFTP::login: Unable to login
JFTP::write: Unable to use passive mode "

You need to use active mode instead of passive mode to connect via joomla. If you are not unable to do that, leave that spaces free. After install you will be able to upload in the both ways: via joomla and via Firezilla.

Ok. I'll try to reinstall Joomla.

[pasha4ur]

Has reinstalled it with empty options.

Then typed

ftp.pasha4ur.mxhoste.com
21
FTP-user
FTP-password

And got

JFTP::login: Unable to login
JFTP::write: Unable to use passive mode

Components-> Download & Install-> JFTP::store: Bad response


Has tried already about 10 free hostings. On noone has not earned all as Plug&Play. It is very sad.

You don't need to type that....you should have access to your space without that settings....

Anyway....you should search on internet and in joomla support, that error is not from us.
Btw, did you tried with an active connection, not passive ?

@ pasha4ur

Hi,did you set ftp in the global configuration - server - enable FTP?
If so, you could use 94.249.143.27 instead of your domain ftp.pasha4ur.mxhoste.com.
I installed a joomla to try this setting and it working with no errors.

I have already set up a site on tje another hosting, but it fallen down Joomla! • View topic - Need help: Joomla 1.5 + free hosting

On your hosting I have already tried:

777 chmod for configuration.php

I changed in this file var $ftp_enable = '1'; => var $ftp_enable = '2'; (I read that this can help) and typed:

var $ftp_enable = '2';
  var $ftp_host = '94.249.143.27';
  var $ftp_port = '21';
  var $ftp_user = 'pasha4';
  var $ftp_pass = '';
  var $ftp_root = '';

Nothing didn't help

P.S. I'm not a programmer. I'm not very well understand all this

reinstalled again...

This is what I get from my configuration.php

$ftp_enable = '1'
$ftp_root = '/domains/yourdomain.com/public_html/';
