Hi,
Well I was trying to upload stuff via ftp, and it says uploaded so n so file successfuly, but then a quota exceeded. And none of the files get uploaded. And I have used just 1mb of diskspace. Any idea why?....is there a limit on howmuch data you can ftp in a day etc?
do lemme know soon
cheers

You will be able to upload 50 MB Files.

Can you copy the FTP error message here ? What is the extension of file you are trying to upload ?

The Quota problem is corrected.

.ftpquota file is used to track quota by pureftpd, it went wrong some way. I recreated the file, tryed uploading/deleting the files, it worked fine for me.

What FTP Program you use ?

How to set the FTP program to show files start with "." ?

Well I use gftp (on linux). So that shows the .files by default....maybe it would be a good idea to make sure its hidden else you might have ppl messing with the quota files Very Happy

*Hope i'm not putting ideas into anyones head*

aaargh....same problem again. So Now I sort of figured whats hapenning. For somereason when I upload stuff....it dosent get uploaded onto the server. I mean....i get no error messages....the ftp client even says everythings been uploaded, etc....but then when I list the directory...nothings gone in....at the most it just creates the blank directories, but cant seem to fill them up. At the same time it still does seem to 'upload' the files, as it gives transfer rates , etc...and so .ftpquota gets updated with howmuch you are uploading....but since it dosent showup on my directory...I cant delete it, so as I try to upload again and again....my ftp quota keeps dying on me.

edit: Finally figured out why this is hapenning. Your structure dosent seem to be capable of recognizing directories with spaces in them....even the webclient messes up if you dir has a space in it. I really would suggest fixing this, as its very inconvenient not to be able to have directory names with spaces in them. Do lemme know about what can be done...also my ftp quote needs to be reset again as its showing more than what it actually is.
Cheers

It dosent matter...its the same for anyfiletype. Ive been trying to upload my webalbum created by Jplus software. ...the main problem is the space in filenames/directories
